A frequent question I get is, "How's everyone at the Foundation doing?" The truth is, it's been rough. None of us anticipated the rapid and radical changes that are now the new normal. But we're dusting ourselves off and keeping the focus where it should be: helping people with cancer today.
I am tired to the bone of the baseless and uninformed criticisms people continue to hurl toward the Livestrong Foundation, based on crimes Lance committed as a cyclist.
Livestrong will survive and thrive. The millions and millions of cancer survivors and caregivers globally will also thrive because thrive is what we do. But Armstrong's children deserve more than anyone in this entire story.
Lance Armstrong admitted that he might have cheated to win a few bicycle races. Meanwhile, the LIVESTRONG brand he created is being tarnished, the nam...
So when we hear the world talking about what a low life Lance is, let's not forget; we're not that far away, each one of us, from dealing with the same stuff Lance is dealing with right now.
Look at your own life and remember times when you've cheated, lied or done something wrong on whatever level. How did it make you feel, regardless of how small the incident?
After nearly 15 years of vehement denials, Lance Armstrong may confess, it is widely rumored. Here are some very human deceit-avoidance lessons we can learn, from Lance's situation.

How is it possible that Lance Armstrong, who has professed his innocence more than any athlete in history, is suddenly reversing course and willing to admit guilt?
The name Drew Olanoff may be one that you have heard before. If you are a twitter aficionado (like me!), you may have once utilized the hashtag #blame...
The attendees at the Social Venture Network (SVN) conference ranged from first-time entrepreneurs to CEOs of major corporations to some of the industry's leading investment advisors and marketing firms.
I met many people this summer who told me I was crazy: I cycled from Austin, Texas to Anchorage, Alaska with 41 other UT Austin students to raise money for cancer research.
I honestly do not remember when I first slipped the yellow bracelet on my wrist. It was probably sometime in 2005. I must have made a donation to the...

AUSTIN, Texas -- Lance Armstrong has cut formal ties with his cancer-fighting charity to avoid further damage brought by doping charges and being stri...
Nike is a pioneer in endorsements, going as far as developing brands within its brand. The payoff has been huge, but the risk is high when hundreds of millions of dollars are invested in the reputation of fallible individuals.
Armstrong represented the epitome of class: a clean-cut cancer survivor at the very top of his game. And the American public bought into his lie -- both figuratively and literally.
Advertising, marketing, events, websites, apps, merchandise -- all based on the character of the heroic figure -- mean real job losses, real cancelled orders and real lost revenue.
As nonprofits, we seek a diversified and balanced portfolio, so that if one revenue stream should wane, the others are strong enough to pick up the slack. But we must be careful from whom and where we might accept corporate contributions.
