Even if the flashing light is caused by external challenges— bad roads or potholes, car maintenance still needs to be done to restore optimal performance and a great driving experience.

Last week, someone hacked into my phone and replaced my SIM card.

Taking over all my data and information in an instant.

A most unpleasant crime.

Holidays are very often not my favorite days. Even with mindfulness, presence, mindset work, and good food— I still often feel sad on holidays.

It strikes me that a mindful coach is like a life doula.

Someone who helps you live with intention, presence, and grace.

And pass through life’s challenging moments with more ease.

Asking yourself how you want to show up can be a very helpful tool when you are struggling.

It is helpful whether the road is just a little bumpy or filled with potholes.

May seem like a funny question.

And so so useful when you are frustrated and angry with someone or something.

A long-time client shared a mantra she has been practicing -- “may I find my path.”

What a kind way to explore your next steps.

Realizing that there is no urgency.

Allowing and giving yourself permission to explore

That is the first step.

Getting help has never been an easy thing for me.

I expect this is true for many of you.

My mind likes to tell me I “should” be able to do it all myself.

That self-sufficiency is a measure of strength and adequacy.

That striving and pushing will get me farther.

If we realize that inherently things are both good and bad and, for the most part, 50/50 —we can use this to our advantage. We can focus on what is in our control- how we experience the 50/50. This is how we shift the balance and impact our lived experience of our one “wild and precious life.”

Coaching doesn’t just create insight—it changes how you live. A client reflection on legacy, 50/50, and becoming more herself. A beautiful reminder: you can be working things out and still be thriving—especially when you stop waiting and start living.

Nourishment is a prerequisite for transformation. Being the best possible parent, spouse, friend, doctor, colleague, and contributor to a better world are not possible from a place of depletion.

There are many ways to nourish yourself. Healthy food is but one.

When you don't connect with your passion you are for sure uncomfortable. The desire to follow your passion may lead you to change something in your life. Or the passion for what you are already doing may be hidden just under the surface- masked by your thoughts and the busyness of life.

Funny how feelings feel so consuming. Like the down days will never end. Or how the hard times feel overwhelming.

This is a down day, and there will again be up days. I know this to be true. I have experienced the truth of this. I just needed that reminder.

Better relationships have a lifetime return: more calm, connection, and ease—and far less resentment and depletion. This is an invitation to practice love on purpose.

Reflections on my journey this past year. This year was a year of massive action and decision-making for me.
It all happened in the midst of so much uncertainty and unexpected challenges.

Mindful coaching is a breath of fresh air for your brain. It allows you to take a breath of fresh air.

When you let go of what doesn't serve you you have more space to breathe and think. And then you can show up as a breath of fresh air in your life - for yourself and your loved ones.

Mindfulness and mind management offers mental space and the opportunity to discover a path forward. Even in the midst of uncertainty and change.

What could it look like?

What should it look like?

How do you get there?

I find that for many “the answer” is in doing less rather than doing more.

Doing LESS often leads to the MORE you want.

Flow, love, contentment and peace come when we stop always fixing.
