I'm creating a new vision for my life, one where I can spend time with my aging parents, grow a luscious garden, build The Resting Tree Sanctuary at my mom's place in IL, spend quality time with Steve and friends traveling the world, hang out with my dog, Mars, and be a generous philanthropist. These are the things I truly value, and I was afraid of going after my dreams and being hurt and disappointed after I lost Maddie in 2018.

I'm so grateful to surrender my powerlessness over finances and find a lovely community who shares a common vision so I can move forward in my life.

If you'd like to chat about this, just put CHAT in the comments. Dreams really are possible when I surrender my doubts and remember that I'm worthy.

Ever had a client blow you away? Me too. It’s story time…

Several years ago, Tiffany came to me because she felt stuck and frustrated in her business. It was especially challenging because she wasn't generating enough income to provide for her family, and her business wasn't growing. It was impacting the rest of her life as her health was declining, and she wanted a family more than anything. While a part of Tiffany was hopeful, another part of her felt like she was going to be stuck with this forever. After several months of working with me, Tiffany had a big shift.

Her confidence skyrocketed and she came to accept her own value, worth and purpose. Her business grew, and she's charging prices in line with the value she offers, rather than a dollar for hour price which kept her on the gerbil wheel of needing to work more to make more. She attributes this shift to a particular healing code I gave her in which she focused on being confident to “put herself out there” and was faced with three situations within a few days that would have typically caused her to be silent. Rather, she was emboldened to speak up, and her voice was heard.

And now, her life is strikingly different. My support empowered her to have the confidence to adopt her son. She started prioritizing her health and her business was finally growing.

I’m so proud of Tiffany and so grateful I get to do this work I love for a living. I love seeing my clients charge what they're worth.

While I can’t promise that this happens for all of my clients as quickly as it happened for Tiffany, I have discovered that if you want the income and impact badly enough, it’s usually only a matter of time with my support before you get there. So... do you know a life coach is needing to have more income and impact?

I have room for 5 Income & Impact Breakthrough sessions in my schedule in the next couple of weeks. I would be honored if you would share this post with a life coach who wants to move boldly forward in 2024. Or send me a DM if you could use some support yourself. I would love to help.

The truth I've been hiding and how it's setting me free. Even though I've been coaching hundreds of people to be true to themselves and live their best lives for 22 years, I've bumped up against challenges that really tested my grit. How much do I really want to help others?

Since 2017, I've anticipated losing my daughter, Maddie, to cystic fibrosis. 10/26/18 that nightmare became a reality when she took her last breath at 22 years of age. I've not been the same, and I didn't even realize how much I've been hiding, protecting myself from being exposed to more disappointment and hurt.
I intend to change that this week and month, AND I'll be gentle on myself as I gain more visibility.

I've joined Thrive Academy’s 5-Day Challenge to support me to be more VISIBLE and share more of my story with you… Because I know that there are a lot of life coaches, like me, who have experienced heartbreak and trauma, conscious or not, and want to have more income and impact. I’ll share more of my story tomorrow… But for today, if you would like to see me make a bigger and more positive difference in the lives of a LOT more people,...Will you please drop me a note below?

Do you ever feel like an imposter? There are 7 signs that you are suffering from imposter syndrome. At the heart of the matter is the limiting belief that if others knew the real you, they wouldn’t love or respect you as much.

When you don't believe that you measure up to others, you feel insecure. To cover up the shame of not feeling adequate, you engage in behaviors such as bragging. If you or others brag, it’s a sign of insecurity. And where there is insecurity, the imposter syndrome isn’t too far away.

This is not the same as healthy confidence and knowing your strengths. Ironically, if you are secure, you don’t need to brag.
To hear the other six signs as well as the cause of Imposter Syndrome, look for my upcoming blog this Thursday, "7 Signs Female Leaders Are Suffering From Imposter Syndrome."

How do you handle the ups and downs of life's contrast?

Last week on my girls' trip to New Orleans, it was an emotional week. It was typical of life's contrasts.

The trip started out rough, when the back of the Armada wasn't latched down, and our cooler fell out, busting some of the smoothie jars I'd prepared. But amazingly only 2 of the 7 jars broke.

There were 5 of us women, and at times I felt like the outsider, the 5th wheel. This was no one's fault. I was observing my feelings of jealousy, inadequacy, and annoyance at certain parts of the trip. And yet overall, it was a beautiful experience of togetherness.

For example, I slept in the middle of my mom and Judy on a King bed (inconvenient), and I made it fun by "tucking them in" at night. :) Our first tour was a VIP City tour. I enjoyed the above-ground cemetery and the gorgeous homes with haint blue to keep away bugs as well as evil spirits.

I've been in New Orleans for the past week with my mom, and friends, Ruth, Judy, and Cathy.

We have had a wonderful time of connecting and being our authentic selves! Yes 5 different personalities, needs, wants and direction is a lot to navigate.

I've never been on a full week vacation with just women.
And it's turned out fabulously well--lots of love, growth, and learning mixed in.

I've got lots of pictures and will post them throughout today and next week. One of the photos is right outside of our hotel, The Marquee, which is elegantly decorated. We did a VIP City tour on Sunday.

I love the rich culture here with the voodoo, the spirituality, the lack of "rules," the graves above ground, and so much more.
As I write this on Thursday, we have one more full day of fun to go and then we head home as you're reading this.

Hat do you believe is your purpose, your highest calling, for this lifetime? Why is it important to align with your purpose as a woman leader?

You have a purpose because you have a unique story, with you as the main character, the leading actor. I once heard a minister say that we all have the same purpose, “To love, give and serve.” This sounds nice, but it isn’t true. It doesn’t match reality. Some characters could care less about loving, giving, and serving because they play a villain role.

Purposes are as varied as the number of people on the planet because we each have a unique story. In this way, you are special. You aren’t meant to be like everyone else. This gives you the opportunity to give up a lot of shame that somehow you should be any other way.

This blog covers why purpose is important for female leaders and three strategies for identifying your life purpose.

Do you fear that if you slow down that things will pile up and you'll feel even more anxious?

This hamster wheel pace helps you not to feel or really know what's going on until it's too late, and then you have health and relationship challenges.

Don't wait until you have a crisis on your hands. TIP: Build in pauses in your day so that you will slow down. That's when you'll notice feelings come up. Yes, they can be scary, but they won't kill you.

Do you know what your core beliefs and values are?

Most people don't. Doing some reflection will help you to discover them.
Once you do, this knowledge can be used as a gateway to knowing your Purpose. After making a small list of things that bring me joy, I was able to distill these 4 things that I deem to be my core values:

Deep connection with myself and other Animals and Nature
Learning/Traveling/New Experiences
Beauty/Creativity

You may think so what? Knowing your purpose can help anchor you when you need to discern how you should be living your daily life. My blog this Thursday will guide you through this and two strategies to finding your purpose.

"My mission in life is not merely to survive....but to thrive."
Maya Angelou has the right idea. Our EGO has no interest in this desire to thrive though. Further, the amygdala part of the brain also could care less about thriving. It wants to survive, even if that means at the expense of our happiness.

So what can a girl do, you may ask.
Join a tribe (could be a large one or a small one of 2), but don't go this alone. You need others, and they need you. You truly aren't alone.

Why is it important to align to your purpose as a female leader?

Aligning to your purpose inspires you to not only get out of bed in the morning, but it feels right. It also feels light, like you’re following your soul’s desire.

You may not be able to explain it, but you just “know” that this is your path. It makes your heart sing when you are aligned to your purpose. It gives you an anchor to come back to you, when you feel you may be veering off path in your life.

This Thursday, when I publish my blog, look for 3 strategies to find your purpose.
