The Little Things You Do That Matter More Than You Realize
You do so much behind the scenes.
You remember details no one else even notices.
You smooth out rough spots so other people’s lives feel easier.
You anticipate needs before anyone asks.
You offer care instinctively.
You support your people with so much heart and grace that it becomes invisible.
The Courage to Take Your Seat at the Table
There is something sacred about seeing a woman speak a quiet truth she has swallowed for years.
You see it in her face and posture. The energy in the room shifts.
Sometimes it even changes her future.
The Bravest Question We Almost Never Ask
It slipped out of her mouth, and she swept it away so fast, you’d think it never happened.
But I saw it.
I felt it.
There was a tiny shift in her face, a wave that washed over her so quickly it might have been missed if I had blinked.
A wave of resignation.
A look I’ve seen in more women than I can count.
A look I have seen in my own mirrored reflection many times.
The Myth of “Everything’s Fine”
“Fine” isn’t wrong. Sometimes it’s just shorthand for “I can’t go there right now.”
But it’s worth noticing how often it tumbles out and how often it misrepresents what’s true for you.
The Sacred Space Between No Longer and Not Yet
If you’re floating between two places right now, I want you to know this:
It’s okay if it feels confusing. It’s okay if it feels like slow, invisible progress.
It won’t last forever. You are moving, even if you can’t really see it or feel it.
You’re in the transition.
You’re in the becoming.
When You Can’t See the Path Ahead
When you’re doing something you’ve never done before, whether pursuing a long-held creative dream, stepping into a new role at work, or reinventing what life looks like after your children have moved out, there is no perfectly marked route.
And that’s exactly where most people get stuck.
How I built a soulful business when I thought I couldn’t
How I went from “not an entrepreneur” to building a soulful, six-figure business
The Subtle Ways We Abandon Ourselves (and How to Come Home Again)
As you settle in, you do a quick scan of your day, not a formal inventory, just that little check-in we can’t help but do. What kind of day was it? How did I do today? And how am I feeling right now?
And the truth is, you’re not exactly sure how to name the emotion.
It isn’t failure. You got so much done. You answered the emails, moved projects forward, handled logistics for your family, and kept your promises to others.
The Ache of a Wish You Haven’t Let Yourself Have
That’s why these wish list items matter. Not because they’re always life-changing in themselves, but because ignoring them chips away at your integrity, your alignment, your self-trust.
When You’re Taking Responsibility That Isn’t Yours
As I listened, I felt this ache travel from my heart to my belly. Her words landed hard because they were so familiar. I could hear myself in her voice. I could feel all the times I’ve said something nearly identical to myself.
All the times I’ve taken responsibility for something that wasn’t actually mine to take.
And how habituated that pattern can become.
The Quiet Labor Of Invisible Work
I describe this season as being in the basement of a house, digging and building the foundation one cement brick at a time. You wouldn’t necessarily know it because there’s no house standing on top of it yet that I can invite you over to see. But I’m down there, digging and laying the bricks.
Thinking vs. Doing: Why Your Busy Brain Isn’t Always Progress
And when your brain is working really hard at thinking, it can trick you into believing you’re moving forward, when in reality, nothing is happening outside your head.
No decision has been made. No action has been taken. There’s nothing you could point to as proof.
Thinking feels busy. Doing creates evidence.
The Quiet Restlessness You Can’t Ignore
What you’re feeling is a stirring. A knowing.
A subtle, persistent sense that there is more of you waiting to be expressed.
You know you have gifts that aren’t being fully used.
You see a bigger contribution you’re meant to make.
You understand your life has been preparing you for something else, but you haven’t quite put your finger on what that is.
Collecting Evidence of What’s Working
The problem arises when we only believe biased stories, assuming that the bad is the whole truth.
That’s why one of the most valuable practices we can create, especially as parents, partners, coaches, and leaders, is to collect evidence of everything that is working intentionally.
Integrity. Humility. Love. How I Use These Core Values in Life, Leadership, and Coaching
These values are not just aspirational, they’re my practical tools used in day-to-day activities inside my business (and life).
It All Started with a Juicy Peach
I’d been staring at it for over an hour. My dinner had come and gone. The sky had grown dark, and the city was vibrant and alive outside the window where I was sitting.
The assignment from my life coach was simple:
Write about what brings you joy.
But I couldn’t.
When You Can’t Stop Thinking About Your Clients
A thought. Followed by an image. Then, an insight about what we had just unearthed together. Something I hadn’t seen earlier when I was sitting in “coach” mode, but was now fully landing in the quiet of my kitchen, with pesto shrimp simmering and Noah Kahan playing in the background.
The Emotion I’m Relying On Most Right Now
Because this particular chapter of my life isn’t just asking me to do more. It’s asking me to be more. Someone new.
Someone bigger. Braver. More visible.
More honest.
More whole.
You Don’t Have to Feel Ready First
So many of us turn down incredible opportunities not because we don’t want them, but because we haven’t given ourselves permission to feel unready.
When I Stopped Making Myself Wrong
Every time I completed something meaningful, whether supporting loved ones through a difficult time, hosting an event, or launching a new idea at work, I braced for what always came next: regret.
Not because things had gone terribly wrong. But because I only looked for what had.
