July 22, 2013 by 2 Comments

I have a confession to make.  There is such a thing as ‘overachieverness‘ and I think I have it. Ok, I know I have it. Overachieverness: (oh-vher-uh-chee-vur-neh-suh) The state of chasing more ambitions and ‘shoulds’ than one woman can accomplish  at any given time. Signs of being in this state include OCD behaviors, time monitoring, early […]

Donloree with a side of Fitmas = Confusion

September 17, 2012 by Leave a Comment

Uh…you’re a leadership coach….what’s with the ‘Fitmas‘? Most of us treat our bodies like garbage. Actually, my garbage probably gets more respect than many people give their bodies; it gets sorted, taken out, and treated as it deserves.

Warning – ranting and raving is about to commence. I have had enough. Two years ago I was feeling like crap, so I went to the doctor. Good idea, right? Maybe if you live in a country where people choose a profession in the healthcare system because they care about people and want to help […]

Its Official, I am NOT Dying

October 12, 2011 by 14 Comments

Seriously, for the last year I have been dying more than living. You wouldn’t necessarily know it from looking at me because I chose to live despite the epic metabolic fiasco on my hands, but for about 6 months I was in what I like to refer to as the ‘death spiral‘. Possibly a bit […]
