I wanted to allow myself to cry, to live fully in this moment, because as painful as it was, it meant my walls had come down in a way I hadn't permitted in a long time. The ache of love and loss pierced me to the core of my soul. And it reminded me that I was still human.

“Giants in Jeans Sonnet 36

Time and tide rule the coward,
While the valiant makes their own time.
Take it slow and be the flow,
Leave the racing to the boneless slime.
Those who say that competition is good,
Are but primitives whose religion is dollar.
A world founded on soulless competition,
Will never be free from societal disorder.
Have some regard for the worth of life,
Dishonor it not by treating as NASCAR.
Feel, think and behave as a human being,
Not as a preprogrammed teleprompter.
The rivers and birds fear no competition,
Yet without them the world cannot function.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Giants in Jeans: 100 Sonnets of United Earth

“I’ve coached on every type of people problem any individual, team, or organization has ever had. You name it, I’ve coached around it. Problems such as

Organizations that want to change their culture.
Teams that don’t succeed because they have turf wars that create silos.
Executive leadership teams that are in conflict and aren’t communicating effectively.
Leaders and executives who want more confidence to make tough decisions.
Managers who have strong technical expertise in their field but have never managed people.
Individual contributors who need to be more engaged with their coworkers and teams.

My clients come to me with these challenges. Nine times out of ten, those challenges are people problems. I coach them to handle these problems and clear the hurdles, so they have more time and energy to do what matters most to them—earn their yoga certification, be a more present mom, learn to play the guitar—and get back to focusing on the things they do best: their job and their organization’s mission.”
