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 [...]
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 [...]
I came across this flow chart the other day, and thought I’d share it, because it completely distills down the path to happiness into a very simple, executable process. Okay, I know it’s kind of silly, and maybe even simplistic. But I still think it’s brilliant. So simple, so straightforward. Though not necessarily easy. The [...]
I don’t know about you, but I can get super-focused on making everything about some kind of accomplishment. I don’t just go for a bike ride, I have to ride 100 miles. Or I’ll ride my favorite route, and try to hit a personal best time for it. Or I’ll have a goal to write [...]
As you may or may not know, I like to cycle. I ride bikes when I can for exercise, for fun, for peace of mind, and for a challenge. And so last weekend, at the suggestion of my guy, I signed up to do a century ride, a century being 100 miles long. Now, I’ve [...]
I’ve found myself thinking about clarity a lot over the past week or so as I’ve been working on my upcoming e-course, 28 Days to Gutsy Living. I want clarity on exactly what content to include, clarity about what would be most helpful to the participants, clarity about how to market it, and so on. [...]
Ah, the joy ride, the crazy roller coaster that is the life of the solopreneur. This week, join me inside my head for a glimpse into a week of being self-employed and growing a business, and the nutty mood swings that go along with it. Monday Yay, Monday! Fresh start this week! Big list of [...]
Doing something scary can trigger nasty little mind monkeys and lizard brains to rear their ugly heads, as I found out this past couple of days. See, I decided to take a class and learn about backcountry skiing. Not cross-country skiing. Not downhill, lift-access skiing. Backcountry. What this means is basically donning large amounts of [...]
A while back, I wrote a post about how we, as women, tend to not ask for things: about asking for recognition, for what you want, for credit where credit is due, for rewards earned, and so forth. And it seems that something is up in the universe, because other people have been pondering the [...]
