This Wasn't How it was Supposed to Go...

At the ripe old age of five I said, “Raise your hand if you like the color yellow.” Evidently my kindergarten teacher didn’t love the interruption. With zero regret I replied, “Well, look at them. They are all bored.” The story has been told many times over the years and while I can’t deny that it sounds like something I would have said and done, I don’t actually remember it. I have no way of knowing if I was sensing my fellow classmate’s...

Acknowledge Yourself for ALL That YOU Do

Do you ever stop and take inventory of everything you do? Not only the items on your to-do list - all the things you do in between - all day, every day?

This week I shared on social that I completed the #75Hard Challenge. One of my greatest awarenesses during those 75 days of working out two times per day, reading 10 pages per day, drinking a gallon of water, and being mindful about my eating (which was time-consuming at times), is the realization that I do a whole heck of a lot in my days...

Stop Being Nice

 

I want you to feel hopeful, secure, and empowered about yourself and your life today and tomorrow and next week and next year. We cannot wait for the external circumstances of our current reality to change in order for us to feel better. Each day that goes by, I’m noticing an increasing level of despair and overwhelm, of discouragement and exhaustion. We are working so hard to put smiles on our faces and show up for our people, our work and our lives. If I see another post...

I Only Thought I Wasn't Ready for This

Oops! I send this message this morning, but I missed attaching the link to my Be Courageously YOU Guide near the bottom. Thank you to the people who mentioned it to me so I could fix that. I appreciate you.

My 20-year high school reunion was in 2013. I wouldn’t miss it and I simultaneously didn’t want to go. I grew up with those humans and wanted to know what they were up to, how their kids were, and meet their spouses. I just wished I could be a fly on the wall, listen...

You are not broken. You are worthy of remembering. #beyou #empowerment #joy #lifecoach #purpose #shinefromwithin #thecouragetobeyou #youareenough #youarewhole #youareworthy

You are not broken. You are worthy of remembering. 

Working with me as your coach is not about fixing you. It is about helping you connect to who you were before you felt like you were not enough. Before you started pleasing, perfecting and achieving.

My personal journey back to that time meant connecting to a part of me that I don’t remember ever knowing. It was worth the journey…still is.

I’m here for you when you are ready to trust in who you are, to release the...

What if we celebrated the struggle and the triumph? #acknowlegeyoursuccess #beyou #empowerment #iamenough #iamworthy #joy #lifecoach #lifeisajourney #love #purpose #recognizethewins #showup #thecouragetobeyou #winscomeinthestruggle

“The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.” Olympic Games Creed

If you are only focused on the win, you are selling yourself short of the growth, the lessons, the intrinsic wins along the way. You are missing your chance at noticing and celebrating your courage for playing, for trying, for putting...

I don’t fake things. (Not anymore at least.)

I have been quiet in this space. Behind the scenes, I have been coaching my clients and as always am blown away by their growth!! My truest self shows up in that space.

However, in my personal life over the last month, my husband and I have experienced loss, as have my clients and friends. I have felt them too deeply to be a “raw raw coach” on social media. If I had tried, I would have been faking it. And I don’t fake things. (Not anymore at least.)

In light of all of the...

What would happen if you were still? #bestill #beyou #connect #empowerment #joy #lifecoach #love #purpose #thecouragetobeyou #youareenough #youareworthy

What would happen if you were still for a minute or two or five or ten? 

“Busy is a means of avoiding the reality of our lives.” Brené Brown. We think this so we go go go. We think we have to prove our worth through alllllllll that we are constantly doing. Our thoughts keep us moving. Constantly. We are doing or watching or scrolling or reading….‍

What would happen if you were still for a minute or two or five or ten? 

Be still. Breathe deep. Feel...
