Hi Reader! I just counted 14 courses and trainings sitting on my favorites bar. FOURTEEN. 😂 And those are just the ones I have bookmarked! I'm not even going to attempt to count all the others I've purchased over the years. You know the ones. The course you were SO excited about. The training you were going to watch over the weekend. The program you bought because you were finally going to turn that idea you've had for YEARS into something real. And then... Life happened. Patients needed you....

Hi Reader! Four boys home from school for two weeks. Approximately eight family Christmas celebrations. And our annual attempt at making Christmas cookies that are gluten-free, sometimes dairy-free, and occasionally egg-free. Which, if you've ever tried baking under those conditions, you know can get interesting. 😂 I LOVE Christmas. I love having our trees up, the house decorated, and everyone together. And I love that the boys get two weeks off school. We get to sleep in. Have those slow...

Hi Reader! What can you remove to create more space? I was in a training yesterday, and something the speaker said has been on my mind ever since. They talked about creating more space in our lives and businesses so we can actually receive the things we want. And it got me thinking. How often are we so focused on what we want to create next that we forget to look at what we're already carrying? We're thinking about the next opportunity, the next goal, the next level of growth. But are we...

Hi Reader! One of my clients brought me to a conference in DC with her team. I got to learn, soak up the room, and be around people doing BIG things. Groundbreaking for the profession. I also got to support her, so we could find ways to get her better results too! When you surround yourself with the right people, things happen. When a CEO is winning and shares that with her team, everybody wins. More money coming into your practice or business means more VALUE for your community. It lets you...

Good morning Reader! Summer's officially done (this is the first weekend we've been home since mid-July 😳), school's back in session, and my youngest started 4K this past week. He's never been away from anyone but family before, sooo... drop-off has been rough. For him, and for me too. There may have been a few tears shed on both sides. Here's to hoping next week is much better. 🤞🏼 So... needless to say, I feel a little behind on what I think I "should" be doing. But I'm at ease about it,...

Happy Friday Reader! I've had the same conversation about six times these past couple of weeks. With clients, with people close to me, with myself. Fear. One of my clients said it flat out: making that first invitation, sending that email, that DM... It's not the words that are hard; it's her head, her mindset. She just needs to push send. Someone close to me is ready to start her own thing, and the only thing in her way is putting herself out there. So a few mornings this week, I sent her...

Reader, So, if you read my last email, you may remember how I said we were taking a mini vacay, and the boys wanted to try out tent camping... Well, here's how that went. Night one, it poured. And somewhere between "settling in" and "questioning our life choices," we discovered both tents had holes in them. Did we check that beforehand? We did not. So night two, we upgraded ourselves to a hotel room until our cabin opened up. Then, day two of the actual vacation, we hit something with the...

Reader, I wanted new brand photos. Not just the smiling-at-the-camera kind — action shots, lifestyle, some abstract stuff mixed in so I had photos for social, blogs, website, etc. My plan was simple: hire a professional. My husband had a different plan. He used to do photography on the side, and still does a few things here and there, so he offered to take them. "You don't have to pay anyone," he said. "I can do it." I obliged, because he is good at it! But.... Here's the thing, though. I...
