The Un-Valentiney Valentine's Blog

It’s kind of odd to be writing a blog about relationships ending when Jo Burns Connects is all about creating and building connections. But that’s the way connections work…they begin and end and the cycle continues. We all have relationships of all different types, familial, friends, romantic, colle...

Life's Whirlwinds

By Jburns

Do you have those moments, days, weeks where it would be impossible to add any more “stuff” into your world? Last month I officiated a rain-soaked wedding, attended the CPRA conference in Breckenridge and was reunited with many friends and colleagues I hadn’t seen since befor...

Embrace Your Inner Weed

By Jburns

Today I took a break from work (aka sitting in front of the computer) and went out to pull some weeds in my backyard. I know…pulling weeds for a break, you must be thinking I’m a little nuts. It’s actually very satisfying to pull a weed and get all the roots outs…and it comes with an ama...

How a Concussion Changed the Course of my Life and Business

By Jburns

In a matter of a week, I went from putting in 8+ hours a day to less than two. I took naps every day for months. You may think…that doesn’t sound so bad, well it certainly wasn’t my idea of a good time. Most of the time my head was buzzing and throbbing and I felt like I had just stepped off one of ...

"G" is for Goals

By Jburns

We can’t accomplish anything unless we choose to. The act of choosing can be subtle or grand. Often its in the form of setting a goal we’d like to accomplish and there are multiple steps. When I started mountain biking, I really didn’t know what I was doing, just hopped on the bike to hit a lo...

"E" is for Explain/Express Yourself

By Jburns

Well, it’s time for me to "Explain" what’s been going on. When I started the CHANGE Blog Series back in early 2021 "G" & "E" were supposed to stand for Goals and Express Yourself. Now it’s for GEEZ…what the heck happened. Did I fall off my bike? No, I wiped out...

"N" is for Nudge & Network

By Jburns

The next letter in CHANGE is N, it's for Nudge and Networking. When you’re sitting on your bike at the top of a hill or the start of a run, sometimes you need a little nudge to take the leap to start. Sometimes you can’t see where the trail goes. Sometimes, it seems steeper in your mind and it’s har...

"H" is for Health Vision

By Jburns

To create CHANGE for yourself or your organization you need vision…in this case a Health vision. H – is the next letter of CHANGE. What do you want your definition, your vision of Health to be?
