So often we just set our sights on making a choice or achieving a goal – without thinking about how reaching it will actually change our life’s trajectory.

Deciding to take a creative risk to achieve more alignment and authenticity in your life – FEELS like a trust fall.

Facing your fears helps you find the middle ground – your solid, stable, true starting point for understanding yourself and achieving your goals.

How do you become someone who actually achieves what you want?

I was on Zoom with a new coaching client last week and finally – FINALLY! – it hit me: Being an adult means having a point of view.

Your situation may be unique. Your goals and non-negotiables may be different. And still, you can take comfort in knowing that every career and life designer out there has grappled with these obstacles and roadblocks.

What’s the dream you’re holding for yourself? And what’s the smallest, fastest, cheapest step you could take right now?

What lessons did this week impart to you? And what’s the reminder there – for you?

Mothering is looking beyond the easy or the short term – and making choices that benefit the future, that protect the weakest, and do the most good for the greatest number.

As I’ve come to learn: the Universe is always speaking to us. And last night was the perfect example.

I just cancelled 95% of my meetings and calls for the month of May. And I've been shocked by the response.

Pause and rest have been my reminders this week. And I hope they can be yours, too.

Not everyone shares the same sensory sensitivities and preferences. In fact, I’m learning that some of us need less sensory input, and some of us actually need more. 

How do we learn to trust ourselves? To trust that we know what’s right for our path, that we can follow through on our dreams, and that we’ll be ok if we falter?

I’m a very optimistic person. Being quick to smile, feeling hopeful, approaching challenges with resilience and patience. But some days, I just don’t have it.

Over the years I've examined and redefined my relationship with risk: what it is, what it isn’t, and how it happens.

When was the last time you let yourself play? Not produce. But play.

It’s perhaps cliche to say that we need community – we need our people – now more than ever. And yet, it’s true.

You know who you’re allowed to be. But what about the opposite? Who you can’t be? Who feels too dangerous, too taboo – or simply just “not yours” to claim?

In the abstract, Learning and Community sound like nice guiding principles. But the experience of actually immersing myself in them has been so much more fulfilling.
