Let loose the Tiger

Both Tiger Woods and I have something in common.

We’ve both been MIA since November – him from the world of golf, me from writing this column.

No, I am not a world-renowned champion golfer (or “celebrity”), I am not being treated for any sex or substance addiction nor did I cheat on my wife.

But guess what? Not to sound rude … it’s really none of your business why I’ve taken some much-needed time off.

By choice, I’ve kept up with my professional obligations and commitment to boards I serve on, but had I needed to step away from any – even temporarily – I owe no one an explanation, but my clients and fellow board members.

You know why? Because I have a personal life that is owned solely by me, and it is up to me whom I choose to share it with.

The same holds true for Tiger.
