Uncomfortable Transitions
So, about that first night with objectively (check my facebook posts and specifically the one by my friend Kristen Chang) the cutest puppy on the planet… Oh, now I understand why people’s faces drastically contorted when I told them we were getting a puppy. Is he adorable? Yes. Have we had super fun playing with him already? […]
Uncomfortable Waiting/Aging
By the time you’re reading this (assuming you’re a watch live tv and read this blog immediately when it hits your mailbox kind of person), we are currently on our way to get Charlie Murphy from the breeder.

Uncomfortable Addition
I’ve never owned a dog before because situations and circumstances prevented me from owning one. In addition to the fact that we never had one when I was a kid, I didn’t have a reference point to truly know what I was missing. As you may have guessed, we will be the proud owner of […]

And none other than Aaron Rodgers, the Packers’ franchise QB, went face-to-face with the most terrifying animal in the open waters, SHARKS (see Aaron in action)! Rodgers admitted that he was petrified […]
3 Ways the SPEARity App has Improved My Productivity
Can you remember back to when apps first starting showing up? I can and I was pretty resistant to using any. They seemed unnecessary to me. But, I was wrong. I can’t remember what the first app was that I used, but now it seems like I have an app for pretty much everything. I […]
Customer Experience Starts with Leadership
You have probably heard the term “customer experience”. In fact, it’s been floating around a lot of places lately. They are talking about it on the news, on LinkedIn, in books, and just about everywhere else. But, many CEOs, entrepreneurs, and business leaders are still wondering what it is exactly. They wonder how it’s any […]
Break Down and Achieve Goals With the SPEARity™ App
The English author, George Eliot once wrote, “Great things are not done by impulse but by a series of small things brought together.” This is what goal setting is all about and one of the most common things that people get wrong when trying to set goals. People often think of goals as these big […]
