hey, sesame seed. when i first started exploring coaching + made the move from teacher to coach, i immersed myself in all things coaching AND all things being in biz for yourself i scooped up all the free PDFs + trainings, invested plenty of time + money in deeper work, and reckoned with a story i had about myself that said i wasnât biz savvy because a lot of the âbestâ strategies that everyone in the know said you HAD to do to do biz right just did not feel good for me i KNEW that,...

hey, sunbutter cup. so, they say when you turn 50 you start to give less of a fuck just shy of T- 2 months for me, and iâm over here kinda struck by how itâs already happening while on one hand, age + timelines can be admittedly kind of arbitrary⌠on the other, iâm totally feeling on the full-body brink of some big transition a quiet strength has seeded within, a gentle yet undeniable unshakeability grown at my core a system-wide evolved embodiment that feels at once leaner + more full and...

hey, raspberry rose soda. weâve all got intuition, but we donât all feel like we have easy access to it weâve been programmed in a bajillion different ways to discredit the deep (and FREE, btw) wisdom within, so more important than anything else is for you to GO EASY on yourself with it rather than make yourself wrong for not knowing where to start or how to hear that precious insight, give yourself grace + start here: ask yourself what you LIKE to do, and/or what you WANT to do this might...

fuck snowstorms, bloom. when youâre already hanging on by some kinda thread, thereâs nothing like a continuous 24-hour heavy snowfall with accumulations of 18+ inches to make you fall to your proverbial knees (or scream obscenities through tears on the way to fill up your gas tank) when your finances for the rest of the month are planned + plotted to the penny, canceled work gigs HURT or maybe your heart is too too tender lately, and being snowed in echoes the absence of someone you miss or...

hey, garlic knot. i know we love our checklists, and crossing items off them and you know iâm all about making sure that whatâs ON them in the first place makes best sense for YOU â which means that youâve probably already eliminated most of the unnecessary tasks on your list that reflect other peopleâs goals, wishes + intentions more than your own (way to go! or, if this is something you struggle with â give a shout to talk through how i can help) but now that your lists are filled with the...

hey, pickled pepper. meet âem where theyâre at â itâs a tenderhearted battle cry for folks here to lead, educate, and love well itâs the opposite of expecting everyone to be where you are or where you want them to be â in how they relate to you, what you believe, and what you need itâs a hallmark of compassion, empathy, understanding + love i bet youâre all about meeting everyone else where theyâre at⌠but answer me this: whoâs meeting YOU there? and perhaps even more importantly: are you...

hey, baked bean. unless youâre a car or a spine, âalignmentâ might seem more woo than worthwhile to pursue that would be a mistake though. alignment is the tough-to-nail-down but utterly indispensable foundation for all the big work weâre here to do in this world when your values, beliefs + actions are aligned, decisions become so much easier to make. you have less to question + even less to prove and when those things are misaligned? people can feel it â even if they canât name it (NB:...
