Something magical is coming Sept. 14th

Hey Reader, A few days ago I told you I had something exciting in the works, and I here it is! On Sept. 14th, I'll be hosting my first-ever virtual retreat, together with my friend Cheryl, a board-certified hypnotist. Why a virtual retreat? Why hypnosis? I'll get to that. But first, lemme share a little ditty about happiness. *takes long drag of cigarette, exhales* Cracking the happiness code People always ask me how I'm so happy -- as a friend once put it, "It's like your gears don't grind...

don't answer that call

It was International Women's Day on Saturday, and I have one message for us: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT PICK UP THAT CALL. IT'S COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE.☎You know what's on the other end? Nothing but a sibilant whisper. One word repeated over and over: selfish The voice on the other end has one hell of an effective sales script, because it doesn’t sell anything -- it just shames us out of wanting the other thing.Our needs? Selfish.Our ambition? Selfish.Our desires? Oh honey, definitely...

Your competitive advantage in chaos + 5 spots open for March

Why even be professional anywhere anymore?We're doomscrolling our way through the shitshow that is 2025, then we get to work or go on LinkedIn and pretend to be fiiine. Everything's fine! We're professional!I'd argue that we're not fine, and maybe you agree, maybe you don't. But I'd also argue that being professional is our competitive advantage.And no amount of unprofessional behavior from poorly regulated tyrants can take that from us, unless we let it.Being professional isn't being...

Grab your ticket! Workshop next Wed: Make 2025 success non-negotiable

It's late February. How did this happen? Where did January go?? Well, at this point, Q1's headed toward the door. It's coming back one last time to look for the car keys. And YOU have the car keys. ---Remember that gorgeous, shiny new goal you drove home last month? The one with the heated seats, the engine that growled like a tiger, the one you told yourself you'd be driving every day once the weather got nicer?It's been sitting in the driveway since mid-January. Truth be told, you've been...

a love letter from January

Reader! I despise the word "goals." I don't know why, but I suspect it has something to do with having to set KPIs (key performance indicators) at a corporate job for 17 years straight. It might also have something to do with my deep-seated need for rebellion. Eh, who knows. But I do love a good poem, and I've got one for you today. It's from January, the oldest sister of the calendar year, and she wants you to know she's over the whole "goals" thing, too. So: If you feel bad about not...

a little coaching industry secret for you

Reader, Coaches do NOT have it all figured out. 👀Lately, I keep hearing people say that coaches seem like they're better than everyone else, which ... ok, I kinda get that. I mean, I myself am constantly targeted with ads from coaches training coaches to train coaches (to train coaches). You've seen one proprietary five-step system, you've seen 'em all, amirite? Not to mention how ridiculous both extremes of the industry sound: 🔥 The bro influencers who tell you that IF YOU'RE NOT TAKING A...

coming soon: The Heroine's Arc

“Even if it's set in stone, I'll smash that future!” I've been watching a lot of anime lately, and this is one of my favorite lines ever. In a recent episode of My Hero Academia, the world is on a precipice. The villain has captured a dangerous power for himself, and he’s poised to destroy humanity for his own morbid gain. The ray of hope is small. Our heroes aren’t much, just a ragtag bunch of students and teachers from a superhero training school. One of the youngest kids, a first-year...

Do this in fraught times

Are you feeling fraught right now? If not, ignore this email! Seriously. There's no need to be all *waving hands* about things all the time. You can come back to this if you ever ARE feeling that way. If, though, you're feeling ... fraught, anxious, on edge, panicky, caught in the doomscroll ... I see you. And I gotchu. As a boundary coach with 14 years of sobriety, I want to offer you something from my recovery work that's helped me, personally, so many times. And because it's easier to...

how to disarm the monster (aka inner critic) - new podcast episode!

Reader! Have I introduced you to the itty bitty shitty committee? You know, the inner critic? That one that's actually just a few of your relatives and exes standing on each other's shoulders, inside a monster suit, trying to look intimidating? rawr. Yep! THAT guy. (Bless his heart.) Well, that guy's on a podcast episode! No, he didn't crash it, for once -- I just talked about him on there, because my friend Dorin wanted some intel on him. We had a whole conversation about what the inner...
