10 Things About Me

I love learning interesting things about people – heck my life’s work is based on helping people, being curious, and listening among other things. I don’t tend to share a lot about myself while coaching others because coaching is not about me it’s about serving others but……. I figured I’d share some things about me that you may not know. Let’s get started!

I am the middle child in my family (and whatever stigmas about middle children are out there – they not true – at least this is my belief ;))
While I was in college I wanted to be a police officer
When I worked in human resources for 20 years and my nickname was ‘The Hammer’ (and I loved it)
Injustice makes my blood boil
I am gluten free and have been for years due to having Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
I love to research things and once I get onto something I am like a dog with a bone
My spiritual animal is my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Riley
I am an introvert and quite shy when first meeting people but after I get to know you – watch out – you’ve got the most loyal, fierce cheerleader by your side rooting for you!
My first car was a blue Volvo and the thought of that car even today haunts me (sorry people who love Volvo’s – but my opinion – cars should not be baby blue and never shaped like a box)
I can be a bit stubborn or defiant at times – for example if I am told not to do something well let’s just say that will compel me to do exactly what I was told not to do
Bonus – I love all things beauty/health related – skin care, gadgets, you name it and I’ll give it a try and if it works well guess what I’ve just purchased it!
