I get a kick out of being your catalyst. Read why...
I wish I knew what I did to shift things, or could tell you the one magic coaching solution I found that got me to the other side of a bad space I found myself in recently. See, I was in a deep, dark funk late last fall—felt completely incompetent, inadequate, dejected about the state [...]
I love to read. I love just about anything having to do with books, and so if you’ve been a client of mind (or, for that matter, anyone who has had a conversation with me) you’ll know that I am always popping off book recommendations. And recently, I was asked to put together a list [...]
Thank you. Yes, I’m talking to you. You, my biggest fan, my eternal cheerleader, my sounding board, my shoulder to lean on, my fiercest critic, my loyal reader, my constant support system. My friend, my client, my colleague, my cohort. I am so grateful for you. You are there for me, thick and thin, giving [...]
As you may have heard me mention before, I’m not really much of a New Year’s Resolutions kind of gal. (Though truth be told, it wouldn’t hurt me to make a couple. Like a vow to take a daily vitamin. Or a promise to myself to do some core-strengthening exercises that will alleviate my nagging [...]
Every year, about this time, I like to reflect back on the year drawing to a close, and do some intention-setting around the year ahead. I’m not exactly a fan of New Year’s resolutions, but that being said, I think there is great value in spending some time consciously envisioning what lies ahead and what [...]
I don’t know about you, but it’s pretty easy for me to get caught up in the “what if” spiral. What if I make a mistake? What if they don’t like me? What if I end up looking like a total idiot? What if I say the wrong thing? What if I don’t have enough [...]
If you’re a regular reader here, you know that I am an advocate of this whole idea of living a gutsy life—of doing the thing that lights your fire, that makes your heart beat a bit faster, that has meaning and relevance and heart in it for you. I think that being gutsy means taking [...]
Lately, I’ve found that there is magic and possibility in two little words. These two words have the power to unstick me like WD-40, to take me from indecision to action, to move me from paralyzed by too many choices to picking one thing and rolling with it. Those two magic words are “for now”. [...]
I keep pondering the word gutsy. It should be no surprise that I spend a lot of time thinking about this word and what it means. After all, I have a tagline that says “helping gutsy women do cool things”. I’ve got a new group coaching program beginning in January called The 28 Day Gutsy [...]
There’s a saying to the effect of “what you focus on, grows”. I’ve been thinking a bunch about that lately. About how it’s easy to focus on the negative, to focus on what we DON’T have rather than what we DO have, to wish for things to be something other than what they are, to [...]
