parking lot drama
I was walking out of the gym yesterday when a woman pulled up next to me in her car and said “Are you leaving? If so, can I follow you? I can’t find a parking spot anywhere!” This is normal at my gym—if you don’t get there by 8am, you’re gonna be driving around for…
wrong question
Me with some of my beautiful clients during an in-person capacity retreat. Back in August, I was on the phone with an amazing woman who was interested in working with me. She’d been one of the founding members of a successful startup and was in the process of selling it. And now, it was time…
they tried to find the “dirty” in me

secret language
Me with my first crush… who ALSO didn’t like me back! Back in my teens and early twenties I had a pattern of falling in infatuation with “unrequited love” kind of people. First, it was the guy who talked to me for hours and poured his heart out to me on the phone once…

Photo of me with attendees at a speaking engagement. I have an important question for you to ask yourself and journal on today. Ready for it? How often have you found yourself investing in other things that you think are more urgent or important right now than your boundaries? Truly. Get really honest with…
pretzel
Teaching clients about capacity in a recent in-home retreat. “I just spent two weeks in bed.” Her voice was trembling as she fought back tears. My client had just led her first live event with eighty people attending, it had been her largest group to date. And now she couldn’t move. Worst of all,…
boundary boomerang
Some clients at a fabulous cactus garden during a recent retreat I hosted. Last year, I lost a friend to what I like to call a “boundary boomerang.” When I first met her, I noticed her boundaries first. She used to email me and message me on Facebook, but the one time I replied…
