Supporting You in Your Desire to Change
by Michael Feeley
Some people welcome kindness like sunlight. They expect it, respond to it, feel instant gratitude. The exchange is clean, mutual, life-giving. Others armor themselves against it. They deflect kindness offered to them. They withhold it from others. When you extend your hand, they turn away—sometimes with rudeness, sometimes with insults, sometimes with calculated indifference and […]

I’m writing about covering up – favorably known as CYA – Covering Your Ass. It can be for a good reason or for a bad reason. To protect oneself from blame, negative consequences, mistakes, and failures. We CYA at work by meeting responsibilities and doing the best work we can. Or we cover to get […]

You’re being lied to about retirement. About aging. About when you’re supposed to be done and fade away. Science tells you it’s genetics—that centenarians won the lottery, that your lifespan was determined at birth. Meanwhile, society whispers that at 65, maybe 70, you should gracefully withdraw. Stop working. Stop contributing. Accept irrelevance. Harvard’s 85-year Study […]

What if we’ve been wrong about greed? Not all of it—the destructive kind deserves every criticism it gets. The accumulation without purpose. The insatiable hunger for more titles, more money, more control. The kind of vindictive greed that burns relationships and sells out your deepest values for another zero in the bank account. That greed […]

Before you speak a word, people feel you. Your aura – that intangible energy radiating from your core – announces who you are. It alerts by saying – “come closer” or “stay away.” Toxicity carries its own signature. It drains rooms, creates tension, makes people guard themselves. Those who emit it often don’t see it – […]

The Double Vision We Carry You said yes to leading that project because you were certain you could handle it. Now it’s harder than expected, and suddenly you’re convinced you’re not capable of anything. Same person. Same week. Overestimating your readiness, then underestimating your ability to learn through difficulty. This is the dance we do […]

We spend enormous energy pretending – not living fully as who we are. Not the obvious kind of hiding – most of us aren’t living double lives or maintaining elaborate deceptions. We hide in subtler ways. We round off our edges in professional settings. We soften our convictions when they might create friction. We perform […]

We throw around “badass” like there’s only one definition. There isn’t. The first badass is all edges. Uncompromising means inflexible. Tough means cruel. This person mistakes hardness for strength and thinks kindness is weakness. They get things done, sure—but they leave wreckage behind them. The second badass also pushes through resistance. Also, won’t quit. But […]

Service isn’t a switch you flip when a project begins. It’s a continuous thread of attention, care, and connection that runs through the entire relationship—from first conversation to completion and beyond. Real service means staying present even when there’s nothing immediate to do. It’s the check-in two months before installation day, not the frantic call […]

There’s a crucial difference between repetition and routine. Repetition with renewed awareness is intentional – choosing again, fresh each time. Routine becomes autopilot, where we’re physically present but can be mentally elsewhere. We do things repeatedly in our daily work. The question isn’t whether we repeat – it’s how we show up when we do. […]
