My first Catalyst experience was at Catalyst One Day in the spring of 2009. I obviously enjoyed it, as I have now been to 3 of their other events. Below is a post I wrote about that experience, “Making An Investment in Myself.” Last Thursday, I attended Catalyst One Day with some folks from Cross […]
Yesterday I was talking to some friends about my season of singleness and one said, Lindsey, do you know that you are wonderful? That was all it took. Tears. Sometimes it is the strangest things that start them streaming. I am curious. What is the last thing that made you cry? Was it a movie? […]
Did you attend Catalyst last month? And come home feeling all warm, fuzzy and inspired? But quickly stash away your swag bag and your notes? Only to get immersed back into life as usual?

I’ve credited his most recent book A Million Miles in a Thousand Years with changing the way I think. A few years ago, […]
If you were truly FEARLESS, what is ONE THING you would commit to DOING right now? Skydive? Break a habit? Tell someone how you really feel? Step into the spotlight? Run a marathon? Change careers? Give a long overdue apology? Say goodbye to a friend that is stunting your growth? Adopt a child? Looking at […]
A couple of friends and I have this shared mental list (yeah, I’m not sure how we do it either) of WORDS WE HATE. Words that makes us cringe. Words that should be avoided if at all possible. I thought it was time to commit this list to paper so I will start us out […]
