For most of us, the thing we’re running from is almost always the pathway to our biggest growth and the doorway to deeper peace. Gaining perspective on what’s blocking your way to success can be difficult and it’s normal for some unpleasant stuff to come up along the way. When …
You Can’t Grow a Successful Business Without Continuing to Grow Yourself
Many of us have this idea that at some point we’ll “figure it all out” and be on a trajectory that only goes upwards. Unfortunately, that’s just not realistic. No matter where we are in life, we’ll always hit challenging moments. It’s through those challenges that we experience growth. You …
Honor Yourself and What You’ve Created
As entrepreneurs, it’s so easy for us to think that everyone knows what we know and that what seems basic to us is basic to our clients. We lose sight of the natural gifts we possess or exactly how much time and energy we’ve put into becoming the best at …
Connect with Your Ability to Persevere

Is Your Past Sabotaging Your Present?
One problem that continues to come up with my clients – and in my own life – is this idea of not knowing who or what is driving our decisions. So often we think we’re choosing based on what we want, as though there’s some sort of pure, internal desire. …
Leading vs. Taking Charge
