Super Bowl Ads Just Aren’t What They Used to Be (but these commercials made my 2022 list)

For the Love of a Parent

Listening Differently
Listening to our body and giving it what it needs is so important. I have always been a morning person enjoying coffee and breakfast and bird chirps while the sun rises. Then 2020 hit and…
Taking 2022 By The Horns
Out of the woodwork and just like clockwork, all of Propel’s “quiet holiday” clients have re-emerged this week ready to take 2022 by the horns. Everyone seems to be motivated to hit the ground running,…
Keep Your Fork!

‘Tis the Season of Cozy
Maybe for you it is playing games with family, curling up with an oversized sweater and a good book, or sipping a hot beverage after a day on the slopes with friends. No matter what…
I salute you, Entrepreneur!
Entrepreneurs!! You deserve more credit than you receive – guaranteed. You work all day, many nights, when you’re sick, and even when you want to play. When the world is off vacationing you’re still thinking,…
Tagged: The PROPELLER
The Propel branding process was one of the most fun I’ve had creating something. When the word and name propel came to the surface and passed all the tests I didn’t know how many people…
Support Local this Small Business Saturday (& all season!)
If you haven’t noticed, there are pipeline delays this year. Major retailers are feeling the squeeze as shelves are less than fully stocked due to detained shipments and shortages in production. That’s why this year…

Originally written for and published on ProductiveFlourishing.com on October 21, 2021 I wanted to do it in 2017. I even wrote about my disillusionment with social media and the luster wearing off back then, but couldn’t bring…
