hey, blueberry bush.

make recordbreaking bank — when i set this intention for the year ahead back in december, i suppose maybe i should have been more specific 🤦‍♀️

because i sure did break a record recently, but not in the way i had in mind

filing my taxes this year revealed to me that last year i made the least amount of money i’ve ever made, since i was like twelve (only the slightest of exaggerations, i’m afraid)

on the up side, it does give a little validation to how tough it’s been to make ends meet lately, which i appreciate

but you know what else?

i realized that it was ALSO the first full year i worked entirely for myself as my main gig, as opposed to being a player on someone else’s team (or teams)

it was the first full year i worked entirely within a schedule of my own creation, with clients i secured on my own, doing work i loved every part of, with people i wholeheartedly chose

the first full year i was NOT beholden to someone else’s schedule (or several someone elses), running ragged on other people’s urgency, at the whim of countless other people’s needs

the first full year of feeling like i was doing sustained justice to my own big work in the world, rather than struggling to give it the same attention i was giving to the big work of others

and while it came with a lot of financial limitations that i’m eager to eliminate + a sometimes heartbreaking amount of things i’ve had to say NO or YES to in order to stay afloat —

it also allowed me to operate way more in my “big leap” genius zone and less in my zone of excellence then ever before

i’ve been slowly expanding on my intentions for the year, and i honestly wasn’t sure what i was going to write for this one

some folks might say i was late in getting my taxes done by doing them so close to the deadline

not only did i beat the nick miller “doing” date by a day —

but on this last day of my 48th year — at a time when it’s all too easy for even the best of us to become preoccupied with the haven’t dones rather than the haves, this revelation couldn’t have been MORE on time

in honor of my 49th birthday tomorrow (and beating the DOING date), i’m offering you a $49 savings off of a single session card coaching experience through tomorrow night!

promo code is loaded in this link + will be active — let’s be honest, until some time thursday morning lol

i’d love to help you explore new perspectives around anything that’s present for you right now

xxoo, cc

ps: fun fact — when you subtract the age i’m turning (49) from the current price of a single session, you get the year i was born (‘76) in dollars

sounds like a pretty sweet sign to hop on this offer to me lol

get birthday savings through 4/16 🎉
