Feeling Stressed?

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about stress—not just the obvious kind that hits you like a freight train, but the low-grade, ever-present kind that hums in the background of modern life. Stress is part of being human, but many of us are carrying more than our systems were designed to handle.  Environmental stress. Emotional…

What If One Month Could Shift Everything?

What if you could change your energy, your outlook, or even your health in just one month? Did you know the two biggest reasons people don’t sign up for coaching?  Time and Money. They worry they don’t have enough of either.  But what if you could get the benefits of coaching without the long-term commitment?…

Are You Ready For Summer?

Hi friends, It’s summer, meaning the annual pressure to achieve a “summer body” is in full swing. And for what it’s worth, my summer body isn’t “ready” either. After my fun-filled trip to NYC, I came home with a few extra pounds in my carry-on bag. Okay, not literally—but metaphorically? And by metaphorically, I mean I was…

Feeling Blah?

Lately, I’ve been in a bit of a blah space. Not burned out. Not unhappy. Not even ungrateful. Just… in-between. The high of a joyful long weekend in NYC with my girls has worn off. The summer energy hasn’t quite landed. Mercury’s not even in retrograde—and yet, every piece of tech I touched last week…

Joy Is Jet Fuel

Last week, I skipped the newsletter because I was off the grid—well, off the calendar—on my first-ever mother-daughter(s) trip to NYC with my three adult kids.  Two long flights, a six-hour time difference, days and evenings packed with Broadway shows, great food, museums, endless walking, and lots (and lots) of laughing—all jammed into five days. By…

Permission Granted

Remember when you had to raise your hand to use the bathroom in grade school? Or ask if you were allowed to have dessert? It’s funny how we carry that habit into adulthood. Still waiting.Still asking.Still hoping someone will give us the green light to do what we already know we want. For so many…

Garage or Garbage?

The other day, I was mindlessly scrolling through social media and misread the word garage as garbage. It made me laugh—and then it made me think. A garage is a space where we store valuables: our cars, tools, workout gear, maybe even a second fridge for party supplies. It holds things we might need, use,…

Spring: A Season To Start Again

Spring doesn’t just bring flowers.  It is an opportunity for rebirth, regrowth, and rediscovery.  It brings permission—to try again, to begin again, to become again. Sometimes, before a new beginning, all we can see is the end. When we experience a job loss, a breakup, or even the death of a loved one, the landscape of…

Do You Feel Confident?

Let’s talk about confidence.  Not the loud, performative kind.  The quiet kind that lets you walk into a room and not second-guess everything you just said. “You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.”– Eleanor Roosevelt Confidence doesn’t magically appear. It’s built through…

What Needs Replanting in Your Life?

I’ve said it before: I am not a gardener. I have, historically, been a plant assassin. Succulents? Dead. Pothos? Brown and crispy. If a plant comes into my home, it’s living on borrowed time. So you can imagine my shock when two of my orchids decided to bloom again after months of what felt like…
