Rock Your Brain. Rock Your Life

I am so excited to have my client Jen on the podcast with me today. She has made such incredible shifts in just 90 days that we just had to share her experience with you all!  When I first met Jen, she was miserable and felt stuck in a toxic work environment. She decided to move forward with coaching even though she wasn’t sure what to expect and investing in herself was difficult for her to do. ...

Hey Rockstars! I am SO excited for this week’s episode. This week, we are diving into the nitty-gritty on how to say goodbye to anxiety, self-doubt, and stress. I’m going to show you just how to replace these thoughts with useful, positive thoughts. Throughout today's episode, we will talk about how every thought in our brain is optional.

So often we have big dreams for ourselves, but when our brains don’t see any evidence that they’re possible, we let them go. We haven’t achieved it in the past so we don’t believe we can create it in our future. There are completely rational reasons for why this happens, but there are also many reasons why we’re able to overcome the doubt and move forward. When you don’t honor your vision for your...

If you've been around for a while, you've probably heard me talk about how my clients are working less while crushing their goals. You also probably wonder about how working less could actually be possible for you.  If so, you're not alone; my clients donʻt believe it in the beginning of our time together and I spent 25 years in the tech industry overworking myself because I also th...

Today weʻre talking about what happens when you donʻt feel like you have any control at work. So often we go through life thinking weʻre at the whim of other people and things: your boss, your team, even your workload. When we feel this way, we inadvertently add to the belief that we arenʻt in charge of what happens to us- that life happens TO us. But it doesnʻt have to be this way. In fact, a lot...

This week we’re talking about what to do when you feel stuck. You know that feeling where you want something to be different at work, but you can’t seem to get out of your own way and make the change? There are lots of situations where you’ll know you’re feeling stuck, but there are also situations where you don’t realize it because it’s disguised as something else.  Regardless of which scenario y...

In 2021 I set goals for myself that were truly unthinkable for me.

Everything we do in life is because we want to experience a feeling. Many of my students desire to feel proud, wild, energized, determined, connected, and motivated. And so many actually feel stuck and hopeless, and they doubt themselves. Your ability to achieve the feelings and results you desire is directly correlated to the amount of times youʻre willing to fail and get it wrong. In todayʻs epi...

There are times in our lives and businesses where making decisions feels really hard or scary. You might notice yourself procrastinating, buffering with mindless eating, or otherwise distracting yourself instead of focusing on the decision at hand.  This happens because so often we tell ourselves that thereʻs a right or wrong and we are worried about what this decision will mean about us if we mak...

This week I was in Arizona with my coach, Brooke Castillo and a room full of other life coaches; it was an amazing time and it brought up some things I hadnʻt examined in my own life by asking one question: Do you think youʻre extraordinary? To answer this question, I looked back on how I have spent the last few years changing myself from the inside out and I know creating that change has required...

When you put yourself in this “straight jacket” of what you think is expected at work you hide a big part of your true essence.  These hidden parts of you that are light, funny, and silly, feel sad and a sense of loss that they’re locked away in this proverbial prison. I encourage you to be a rebel.  Oppose the fictional authority created in your mind that being silly, funny, goofy, fill in the bl...

Truly believing the authentic praise you receive from others is a skill. And why am I a proponent of this skill?  Because when you can feel in your body that the praise you receive is truly who you are, you can start to align and show up in your life as who you authentically are. When you believe the praise, you have another tool to help you drop self judgment and criticism about yourself.  This i...
