The bold practice of being yourself

Sometimes growth is less about changing yourself and more about fully stepping into who you’ve always been. I know you are awesome. But, do YOU??? Welcome to week 3 of Winds of Wisdom! I invite you to pause for a moment and simply have some fun with me here. I believe that if you’re reading this, you’re already a wise person. I’ve got wisdom, you’ve got wisdom, and sometimes we just need reminders of what we ALREADY know. This week, the Winds of Wisdom whisper this: You already know the

When discomfort is actually growth

Growth can feel messy before you become masterful In this week’s Winds of Wisdom, I found myself reflecting on something I hear from entrepreneurs and coaches all the time: “I’m just trying to get clear.” And honestly, I think many people already are clear. They already know the kind of work they want to do. They already know they want to help people. They already know they’ve outgrown certain ways of doing things. But then comes the harder part. Actually >> choosing it. << Actually letting themselves want more. Letting

The coach you are waiting to become already exists

What happens when you stop softening your voice and start leading? This past winter, I periodically grabbed my phone and spoke into my Facebook app through video. I called it the Winter Women’s Wisdom Series.  It was informal, unscripted, and something I created in the moment. And it was fun. Now, as we move into Spring and Summer, I felt inspired again. This time, I’m committing to a 10-week series called The Winds of Wisdom. Each week, I’ll share something simple, but meaningful. Something that, if you let it, might

Are you growing or just pushing harder?

Finding the right pace for sustainable growth as a coach Why do successful coaches get stuck when they’re trying to reach the next level? From my experience, it usually comes down to one of two things. Expanding beyond your capacity One of the biggest reasons we get stuck is trying to do more than we actually have the capacity for. In 2022, I tried to expand faster and bigger than I realistically could handle. And it caught up with me. So here’s my advice, based on that experience: >>Go slowly<<

The morning I fainted, and what it reminded me about slowing down

Business thrives when we thrive The other morning reminded me that I am human too. I want to share a story that was unfortunate, but in a strange way, also fortunate. At 6:00 am, I fainted on my kitchen floor. I had an embedded tick, and after a trip to the ER, thankfully, I am fine. The doctors checked me out, and the good news is that physically, everything is okay. What they explained is that my body likely reacted through the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve is part of

Stop Being Fine

A simple spring reset to clear the clutter, shift your energy, and finally move toward what you actually want this quarter It’s the beginning of a new month. A new quarter… A new season. And whether you pay attention to the moon, the calendar, the weather, or just that little whisper inside that says “something needs to change,” there is something powerful about a fresh start. As I write this, we’ve just entered the second quarter of the year, and Spring is arriving. The world outside is waking up. Maybe

I learned balance is possible while achieving my business goals

How to move forward this spring without tipping into burnout A client who just completed the Wintering Q1 Sacred Spiral Program, when asked about the best result, stated, “I learned balance is possible while achieving my business goals.” Amen, sister! As I’m writing this, it’s just after St. Patrick’s Day. There’s a bit more light in the sky, a bit more warmth in the air, and that subtle feeling that something is shifting. We’ve just moved through the equinox, one of those rare moments where the whole planet shares nearly

Why your business energy shifts with the seasons

How slowing down in winter helps you take more aligned action in spring March in New Hampshire has a personality of its own. One day you see patches of bare ground and sunshine, and the next day the wind reminds you that winter is not quite finished yet. For me, that shifting energy is exactly what makes March so interesting. We often hear “in like a lion, out like a lamb,” and it captures the experience perfectly. March can feel windy, unsettled, and full of movement. And when you think

Why your client calendar empties faster than you think

The seasonal mindset that keeps your calendar full and your work flowing I was speaking with a powerful and well known mentor coach the other day. He has been in the coaching world for many years, so I asked him a question I often ask experienced professionals: What do you believe most often gets in the way when  coaches are growing their business? His answer was something I learned years ago, and many lessons are timeless. As our businesses grow, we must remember to keep planting seeds. The garden metaphor
