Simplifying to Serve Do you desire to simplify your life, your home, your surroundings?To declutter your space, to organize and systemize all your stuff?This has been something that has been coming up for me, to "SIMPLIFY." Perhaps that's my word for 2022. Recently I dove into decluttering, organizing and creating space in my office.What I found was: There is power in purging for your purpose! I dove into this topic more on this week's UNSCRIPTED, you can catch the replay here: Or the ...
Are you good at asking? Are you good at reaching out for help?No, Google doesn't count. Today’s UNSCRIPTED was about the power of prayer. You can watch the replay here: Or the Podcast Version here. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. And human-ing? That can be hard.So what do we do when we are juggling alllll the plates, and suddenly our balance is thrown off, or life tosses another one in... and suddenly, SMASH!My go-to is prayer. I don't always know how to put the ...
Embrace Who YOU Are On today's UNSCRIPTED, I shared about an experience I had yesterday that moved me to tears.I was in a course to learn your Business Archetype. Reviewing the types, I wanted to be the badass! The rebel! The trailblazer!Have you ever wanted to be that? Or perhaps you are!So when the quiz results came back showing, "The Innocent," I sighed. It reminded me of when I was in college and decided to go out one night sporting a leather biker jacket and some kick-ass ...
They look like they've got it all! Today's UNSCRIPTED live was about this. You can watch the replay here: Or the Podcast Version here.How many times have you compared or measured yourself based upon what something appears to be, or what someone appears to have?So many times what we "see" isn't what it appears to be.Usually when you scroll online, you mostly see everyones life all together.Businesses launching programs and services. That perfect couple that is so in love. The one who lost their ...
The most important part of planning... It's not the income goal. It's not the calendar commitments to showing up. It's not the mindset shift. It's not the promises. It's not the resolutions. It's not even the goal or the vision...Yes, these things are important for sure... and there is one thing that is more important, and often a step not talked about or thought about.That step? Presence.While it's great to plan for the future, it's vital to be here, today. In this moment. To be present as you ...
Merry Christmas! I'm gonna lose my shit! Are you feeling overwhelmed this season? The shopping, the cleaning, the wrapping… Perhaps you too are processing grief? It's not only holiday tasks on my plate, it's other unexpected to-do's that keep showing up, right alongside the underlying sadness of a “first” Christmas with new empty seats around the table. Merry Christmas! I’m gonna lose my shit! Those are the words that I felt the other day as I tried to hold ...
I thought about it long enough... And allllll that thinking was having me hiding backstage. Stuck in the swirl of questions. Thinking and thinking, but taking no action...Well, except making pretty banners to declare it, whenever I'd finally be ready to share it.UNSCRIPTED. Why? Precisely for this reason! To let it be real, raw, messy and vulnerable! To get out of my head and just do the darn thing!Yet old patterns of resistance took hold. There I was, fumbling behind the scenes, doing all the ...
You lead by living. One of my mentors was talking today about how simply witnessing someone transformed their life. See, it’s not always about what products or services we offer. It’s about how we show up. It’s about who we are. It’s about how we live. We’ve all heard the saying, “do as I say, not as I do.” Yet, we all know that it’s the “doing” that has more impact. Therefore your truest leadership is how you are showing up to ...
I was in my studio, working on my next book, and I hit a block. In these moments it’s SO easy to reach for my phone, check social media, decide to go get something to eat, start cleaning something, think of all the things I could be doing, call someone to talk, and so on… Every part of me wants to stop. Shove it to the side for another day (which may be days or weeks later). Yet, it’s in this moment, this moment of decision of what I choose to do, that makes all the ...
I received a lovely message about spending, and it inspired me to remember this teaching I received from one of my mentors. As we move into the season where lots of “spending” typically occurs, I thought this would be a timely share to inspire YOU as well. When we “spend” it typically feels like we are losing what we spend… We “spend” our money, now it’s gone.We “spend” our time, now it’s gone.We “spend” our ...
