Does everything feel messy?
I got to hear from an incredible speaker in the last week or so, named Kindra Hall.
One of the things she said is,
"It's not the magnitude of your story, it's that you tell it."
So I'm telling my story today in case it encourages somebody else.
In March of 2022, I had believed a story for a rea...

Be real: Are you doing it...or not doing it?
A bit of an above-the-fold mention real quick of something before I dig into this week's topic (which totally relates!)
On August 20th from 9-12, I'm hosting a live workshop made to help you get into momentum on your most important goals.
So quick question...is there a goal you've had, that you j...

Momentum. It's not always in the direction you think.
I got wise words in-person from THE James Clear (of bestseller Atomic Habits) this past weekend!
He was keynote speaker at a health convention I was at. (You may already know I've been on a health journey since March of 2022.)
There were some incredible takeaways that I want to share with you fro...

That time a building made me cry
You may have heard...

"If nothing changes, nothing changes. If you keep doing what you're doing, you're going to keep getting what you're getting."
Courtney Stephens wrote that in her book The Lies About Truth. She follows it up with:
"If you want change, make some."
With that in mind, here's ...

From feedback to Target tantrums: "Sticking it" to other people
I might look a little haggard in today's video. It was just before jammie time.
I'd had three of the longest (and most amazing) days in a row since launching my business.
As the week started, I had thought "Oh my gosh, there's so much happening."
But as I got through those three days, I realized ...

It's not what you don't know...it's what you're not doing
I read a quote the other day.
"What keeps people stuck isn't what they don't know. It's what they're not doing."
Oof. Kind of a gut punch, but I appreciate those from time to time.
So anyway, I was mulling that around, and then we went camping. (Well, actually glamping because if you know me, I...

Stop cleaning the pantry
Here's a problem I've been hearing both in coaching conversations AND from people in my inbox the last few weeks.
(PS - Thank you so much for your time and responses. I love hearing your stories.)
I feel very blessed that people are open with me about what's happening in their lives and businesse...

This could change how you feel about being too busy
Last week I had a heavy-turned-amazing call with one of my clients. She said to me:
"I'm really struggling to figure out how to find time to work ON my business, and not just IN my business.
I'm not prioritizing the right things. I'm not getting the right things done.
And even when I'm resting b...

What got you here may not be enough
Where are you right now?
Not physically.
But where are you right now in life?
đ§ Are you where you want to be?
đ€© Are you excited about where you are?
đ€ Are you frustrated with where you are?
(Sometimes I find myself jumping between these all in one day. đ
)
One of the things that's becoming more ap...

Not wanting to do something?
I'm sure you've not wanted to do something before. You know...you wake up, and you dread doing the thing. You make a million excuses why you shouldn't do the thing. And then you talk yourself out of doing the thing, right?
Even when it's in your best interest.
Even when it's maybe something you a...

'Something' is all you need to move forward
Maybe this is something you've been struggling with. I know I have.
It's the concept of 'all-or-nothing.'
Have you ever lived in the 'all-or-nothing' camp?
Like...
"Listen, this is all or nothing."
"I have to get it all done today."
"I have to get it all done this week."
"I have to do all the th...

Thriving in every season of life
What's your favorite word? I'll tell you what (one of) mine is...
Seasons
I talk a lot in "seasons."
"I'm in this season."
"I'm getting ready to go into that season.
"In this season, this is going on."
"This is a very busy season." (Or very "full" season, if you want it to sound better. đ)
I do...
