Beth Weissenberger, co-founder and vice chairman of Handel Group, gets into the nitty gritty about those insidious internal tendencies that keep us from making real, lasting change, and how to shut them down once and for all with Mind Body Green. >

Have a seat.  I don’t think I’m going to tell type you something you don’t already know, but in case you never thought of it exactly this way, take a deep breath, a seat, and a stress ball, and read on:   Just as we coach clients to take a hard look at the league […]

I was that girl.  The one that graduated from college with a 2.8 GPA and a minor in Michelob. And the gig I landed after graduation wasn’t much to write home about, either. On paper it looked fine: I worked in the insurance industry on Wall Street. But, I was answering phones—and I hated it. […]

No man will make a great leader who wants to do it all himself, or to get all the credit for doing it.   Andrew Carnegie Kermit isn’t the only one who has problems being green… Sure, many of us are gunning for the big promotion, the title, the new office, the bigger paycheck, etc. We’re […]

In 20+ years of working with clients, I’ve found that the area where people tend to be most complacent about their dreams is career. How do you think you stack up? Thing is, it’s easy to get stuck in your career, especially if you’re already in the field you want to be in. It may […]

So what if my wife (aka VP Content, Handel Group) rolled her eyes when she heard Quora invited me to host a live coaching session? Now, now. It wasn’t that she thought I shouldn’t be asked (or even shouldn’t answer)—she thought that the Quora readers might not necessarily find my creative take on the English […]

It’s that time of year: toasts, roasts, floats, and bloat. And truly, what better time than the holidays amongst family (his/hers/yours/theirs), friends, coworkers, and direct reports to accentuate (or exacerbate!) what we actually need to work on (and our teams are begging us to do better?) Okay. Maybe I’m the one that’s begging. As I […]

Ever find yourself talking about your life as if you have no say over it?  Especially in an area in which you are not particularly proud? Whether it’s your job, your home life, your finances, your (and my) aging body, etc., we speak about ourselves and our lives like we’re reporting on the weather. We […]

Barring physical ailments, getting fired, being left, getting cheated on, raising teens, quitting carbs, (and whatever else is on your what’s worse-list), a flat tire at least earns a spot on the “can ruin a day” list, right? For the action-oriented, results-driven species we are, a flat tire means something dreadful. We not only have […]

Allow me to blow my own horn. I’ve acted as Co-President and President of HG Life for 12 years. In that time, I’ve coached thousands individuals and couples. I’ve had six-figure sales years. I’ve been quoted in dozens of articles and appeared on TV. I know I’ve fixed hundreds of lives and changed toxic relationships […]

Did you just balk at that title? I know—it’s not politically correct. But I think it’s a brilliant question to ask one another. Look, I get it. The truth (telling it and hearing it) makes us jittery. But when we keep everything nonconfrontational and PC, we end up unconsciously stepping over every which way we […]

Whether you are white, black, brown, yellow, tall, short, fat, thin, gay, straight, blonde, brunette, male, or female, you are in some way, shape or form discussing or dealing with diversity and inclusion. Schools are ramping up programs to address it.  Corporate America has expanded the c-suite to act on it. Police and military recognize […]
