The Wild Edges of Being Human

I’m baaaack.  Y’all I had a great September Sabbatical, if you follow me on Instagram, you saw I enjoyed lots of time with family, at the lake, and enjoying the outside.  I’m feeling refreshed and so ready to dive back in fully and deeply with you all.  In fact, I was so excited to return, I even recorded this week’s podcast episode a bit earlier than normal! How’s that for restored...

Welcome to the last week of my September Sabbatical! This means it’s the last week of sharing my “Best Of” episodes and we’re going to wrap up with the popular episode “The Space Between Ambition and Loving What Is”.  I wanted to share this idea again because this space between what is and what’s next is when the SLOW TANGO is most important- especially for recovering overachievers.  We’...

I’m still enjoying my September Sabbatical, on week 3 this week!  I have to be honest, it’s been a stretch for me to let go in the ways I am this month. I don’t usually take time “off” like this, I don’t usually rely on my team in this way.  But doing so has reminded me that I can do things even when I don’t feel ready.  Which reminded me of an episode I shared at the start of 2019...

I’m enjoying week 2 of my September Sabbatical and that means re-sharing another important conversation with you on the Better Life Better Work show today.  Last week we talked about the importance of your emotional P&L and this week I want to tap back into our core values.  This conversation was inspired by an actual Life Coaching Call inside the Soul-Full Success community, shared...

Are you taking enough breaks? Last week I was reminded that a SLOW TANGO is what gets results in my business. It’s when I slow down, allow ease, and step back that more flows.  With that lesson fresh on my mind, and after a full August with moving into our new house, and opening the doors to The Soul-Full Success community, I’m taking September to get some brain space and nourishment and love...

I’ve got a show FULL of soul-full goodness for you today! After a few weeks of deep introspection and working through my beliefs and emotions (let’s be honest, this is an ongoing process, but one that hit hard recently) I wanted to share some things I know to be true when it comes to owning a SOUL-FULL business.  These are my top 7 ideas for keeping the soul alive in your biz.  It’s for...

  Alright, deep breaths together.  This week I’m bringing up a conversation that makes.my.stomach.turn.  I’m talking about our political climate.  Don’t worry, I”m not going to tell you what to believe or do, I’m just going to share my experience and processing.  I had a few instances this weekend that broke my heart and make this feel relevant.  I’m wrestling with my...

  It’s a busy time for life and biz over here in my world! This week on the podcast I’m giving you just a short update on all that’s going on and asking you a question that I hope you take action on (it’s one that changed my life and led to what’s going on right now!).  It’s seriously a super quickie episode, but one that I think will have an impact on you.  Even though I have this...

Just Connection How are you doing?  What phase are you moving through this week? Are you surrendering to the circumstances of the world? Accepting the strangeness? Resisting? Feeling you should “do more”? I realized this week I was craving connection, specifically to you all, my community.  I just wanted to connect, to sit down, open my heart, and hear what’s up with you.  Part of w...

Coming to you this week with SUCH a fun surprise… We’re joined on the podcast by Tripp Lanier , my brother from another mother.  He’s also the host of The New Man Podcast and Author of This Book Will Make You Dangerous. Now I know that the idea of “dangerous” may not totally resonate with all of you (in fact, I almost didn’t have Tripp on the show because I was worried his message wasn’t a fi...

  Are you listening to your heart?  This week it’s on my heart to share with you that sometimes we just need our own medicine.  And for me this week that medicine is remembering that my heart is my RULER..  That no matter how crazy, how wild, how tender – our hearts are the center, they are the ruler of our lives. They KNOW.  Maybe you have a wild heart like mine, on...

  Today’s podcast is for you- the Soul-Full CEO.    You’ve probably noticed I’ve been using this term a bit more. It’s one that I’m finding encapsulates the type of business leader I choose to BE, and the types of clients I work with.  In fact, years ago when I started this whole quest, I named my organization Soul-Full Living. And now my monthly program is called Soul-Full Suc...

Let’s have a quick convo about monetization… Specifically I want to speak with you about monetizing the help you get in your business.  Since deciding I am a CEO that allows high level help, I’ve learned some things to consider in hiring out that I want to share with you on the podcast so you don’t have to experience the expense I did.  The core takeaway I hope for you is that you learn...

I wanted to peel back the curtain for you this week.  I’ve been using some critical tools to support my inner and outer work and thought you could benefit from those tools as well so I’m sharing them in this week’s podcast episode. It’s been an especially good time to lean into these tools as I’m stepping into my role as Soul-Full CEO.  I’m learning what’s allowing me to sink into this r...

What do I mean when I say you are a gardener, not a machine?  I mean you are not meant to just be efficient, to create an outcome, to perform.  You are meant to be tended to.  I know we were all raised in a world that celebrates action and implementation and metrics, but we have to remember the process too.  We can strive to do well, but also keep our souls alive. We can be eff...

Let’s talk about feeling fried.  All around us we have events occurring that are changing our set point, how we interact, and honestly, how our hearts and energy are affected.  This week I’m just feeling fried by it all. I’m feeling tired and sad and confused. I’m feeling human.  But there’s always gold when there’s shit. That’s why I’ve decided to record my Mid-Year Soulie Debrief...

On the heels of a few busy and emotional weeks, I wanted to bring you a podcast episode with someone I greatly admire – someone who inspires me and who I hope will inspire you too.  This week, we’re joined by the wonderful Rich Litvin or The Prosperous Coach .  Rich is someone I’ve had the pleasure of knowing for years now and his coaching, perspective, and ideas are something I ha...

  For my White friends, yep…it’s time to talk about being anti-racist. Many of my friends and a few clients have reached out this week to ask about seeing what they can’t see.  I offer only a intro to the experts who are teaching this work and encourage you to listen to learn – but don’t ask your black friends.  I know…there is a lot to unlearn an...

  Y’all we’re celebrating 100+ episodes today!   Did you think we’d get here? I sure had days where I never thought we would.  In honor of sticking with it and reaching this milestone, I wanted to share with you some lessons I’ve learned so far in my podcast journey.  These are lessons you can take into your life too. Not just if you are a business owner or podcaster, but if yo...

  Today’s episode in on a helpful distinction that I make and share with my clients to have a successful and sustainable business.  Ready?  The distinction is that there is a difference between you as an individual and your business as an entity. (Yes, even if the names are the same!).  When you can clearly see this distinction, really separate the two where needed, you b...

  Did you pick a word (or phrase) of the year?  The over-achiever in me picked 3 phrases: Open Heart. Slow Tango. Big Profit.  Well, with all that’s been going on this year so far, the quarantining, the shifting, the pivoting, it’s been easy to forget these words/phrases.  Today I wanted to encourage you to reflect on your word of the year and what it means now.  I’m going...

  This week’s podcast is a fun one.  I’m introducing you to Club MFKR (bonus points to those of you that figure out what this stands for on your own and share with me on Instagram or Facebook!).  And I’m talking about courage.  uring this home-quarantine time I’ve been thinking a lot about behavior, especially mine. I’ve found myself behaving, well…like a bitch. So I’ve b...

  Guess what… This week’s podcast episode is officially #100! Technically it’s #95 because I (for some reason) didn’t number a few min-episodes, but I’m still counting it. I’ll celebrate with you in a larger way when the “real” 100th episode airs in a few weeks, but had to share this milestone with you! Now that you are ready to celebrate, we have one more thing to celebrate today&#8230...
