It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and forget to appreciate the people who make our lives easier. Taking a moment to express gratitude can really make someone's day brighter. How do you plan to show your appreciation during the holidays and beyond?

The world is in a crazy place. Trying to live a normal life while also being smacked with terrible news both here and abroad is a lot to hold. It’s easy to lose our way if we don’t turn off the TV, set down our phones, and take stock of what’s actually within our control. In order to find center again, Wendy suggests we pan in close to what’s right in front of us. Take care of yourself, your immediate family and work from that point outward. Control what you can control, and then decide where...

Wendy is adjusting to a (slightly) empty nest at home. Simply put, she did not handle her daughter's departure for college as well as she thought she would... as she puts it, "it kicked my ass." Fall into this week's podcast to find out how Wendy is finding solace in the difficult transition.

Every day, we witness some majorly bad behavior all around this big country of ours, and it seems our tolerance for any human error is at basement level. But what happens if we cancel everyone who makes a mistake? An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, as they say. Wendy’s had enough and wants to cancel canceling. Listen in as Wendy takes a page from the Loretta Ross playbook (“...when you’re on social media, act like you’re holding someone’s heart in your hand”) and offers her...

Remember when we’d sit in a circle as kids and one person would whisper a sentence into the ear of the kid next to her? And she’d then whisper to the next kid and he’d whisper to the next and by the time the whispered sentence had made it around once, it was utterly distorted, often not recognizable to the original. Welp. That’s gossip. Wendy’s putting a finer point on this today.

In this season of our lives, who needs to keep up with the Joneses? Not us, Croppers. Yes, we live in the era of 24/7 access to the lives of others. Or, we should say, to the “lives” of others. What we see on social media is heavily curated and it’s important to remember that comparing ourselves to others is a dead end, and comparing ourselves to the curated version of others can be deadly to the soul. Let’s evolve past comparison and judgment because doing so is freeing. Wendy had something...

How refreshing) and what she’s doing now. Then, Stacy is the first to participate in our new 5 in 5 segment: Five questions in five minutes. You know you want to hear what Stacy has to...

Be.Real is the latest trend young people are obsessing over. Some of us Olds are using it, too (which should serve as the death knell to the app that purports to challenge the theater that are Instagram and Facebook). But what isn’t theater is how real we are in our day-to-day lives. In today’s installment, Wendy offers her thoughts on authenticity, why it matters and how important it is to be true to ourselves. So snap that Be.Real when you get your notification and then snap to this week’s...
