A Few Things I Learned Today

Today was one of those days where I learned new things. I love learning new things. And maybe some of you love learning new things too, so I am sharing them with you so perhaps you can share in my “knowledgeable bliss.” 1. Mashable lists Michael Hyatt as one of the most influential twitterers shaping […]

Now, Discover Your Strengths

I feel like I go through seasons where everyone I know is talking about “StrengthsFinders.” And thankfully this is one of those seasons, because I love, love, love talking about Strengths. (Check out Spence talking about them here and Jenni talking about them here.) Here’s more information about StrengthsFinder from Strengths.Gallup.Com “Hide not your talents. […]

Q-U-I-T-T-E-R

I am a QUITTER and I am proud of it. I know that sounds odd because quitting is typically shameful. But I am not ashamed, not now. You see quitting is unnatural to me. I have always stuck with things to the very end, always felt too responsible to bail out of commitments, always worn […]

Catalyst ‘O9, Quick Highlights

I went into Catalyst with some incredibly high expectations. And I did not leave disappointed. I left exhausted, like every ounce of me (body, soul and mind) was stretched to the absolute limit, but not the slightest bit disappointed. Brad Lomenick and his team have certainly figured out how to produce a WOW event. As […]

Catalyst ’09, Here I Come

On Tuesday afternoon I am headed to Atlanta for Catalyst ’09. I can not wait. This will be my first “full” Catalyst experience (I attended the One Day this Spring) and I can’t wait to soak it in. The Catalyst Conference is the largest gathering of young leaders in the country, but it pains us […]

I don’t know really what it is. But something is definitely going on with me. Probably the best way to explain it is to say I just don’t feel like myself. I feel like a stranger in my own skin. Or more accurately, I don’t feel like I am the same girl that I was […]

Do You Remember…

what it was like to be a teenager? Really what it was like? Not some dreamed-up idealized version of high school where you felt secure, loved, and popular? Because I do. I try to block it out sometimes, but it is there, still haunting me. I grew up in Dallas, Texas, in an area that […]

Why I Love Social Media, Part 1

I have decided to start a new series on my blog, “Why I Love Social Media.” This series is for all the folks that are resisting blogging, Twitter, Facebook, etc. because they are convinced that the internet is full of creepy strangers. This series is hopefully will give them a taste of what they are […]

The Blahs

I kind of have THE BLAHS today. Actually, I have had them all week. You know the feeling? The feeling that you are a blink away from tears. The feeling where you actually can feel a heavy heart beating in your chest. The feeling that you are alone fighting the world. PrintemailFacebookLinkedinPinterestTumblrTwitter

Not My Finest Moment

So, it is time you all found out the truth about me. I used to be a serious bully. Really I was. I made kids cry at school, for sport. Check out this video for my “bully” story. Cultivate Her – “Bullies” from Jenni Catron on Vimeo. Pretty painful, huh? PrintemailFacebookLinkedinPinterestTumblrTwitter
