I couldn’t touch it. It would take days to figure out. My last year’s taxes were messed up and now…a big, fat penalty. I didn’t know where to begin. The backup? The expenses? The donations? Do I still have my bank statements? Should I track down the accountant? When will I deal with this monstrosity?…
I’ve gotten really good at saying “No” to things I don’t want to do. Can you head up the student committee this year? “No thank you, I’ve already got a ton on my plate.” Will you pleeeease come to this networking event with me? “Sorry, but it’s not the right audience for me.” Wanna join…
Staying focused is really freakin’ hard. It’s hard to walk from your kitchen to your bedroom without getting distracted. It’s challenging to plan your day without getting sucked into email. It’s nearly impossible to ignore the barrage of alerts and updates. Why are we so addicted to our distractions? Do we simply not have any…
I know it’s not easy to do it all. To go after your dreams, or build a business from scratch… Nurturing relationships and raising a family… While silencing the inner critic that tells you you’re not good or smart or together enough. It takes courage. It really does. To show up every day and do…
Believe it or not there was a time I termed myself “a lazy person.” Not because I was sitting around all day. No – just the opposite. I was in constant movement and always busy. BUT – I wasn’t getting the important things done, so naturally my mind went to thinking “I’m lazy”, which eventually led…
I recently told you that I’ve been taking control of my health. I’m logging my food, nutritional info., and how I’m feeling. I’ve discovered a ton about my moods, bloating, calorie intake, carb consumption and so much more. All from two things: 1) Digging into the details 2) Getting truthful Not gonna lie. Sometimes “the…
The lines between work life and personal life are completely blurred. If you no longer having defined hours between this is when I do my work and this is when I spend time with my family or relax or do things for the house… You might be craving what I’ve heard from a lot from women lately: “I…
I recently had a coaching consult with an amazing law firm owner. She loves the program and believes in me but she had one big hesitation. Trusting herself. She’s sure she’ll let herself down…again. “I’ve tried this 100 times. All the tools, all the systems. Why will it be different this time?” Her belief: “I am…
You scroll through pages of to-do lists. Everything is important. It’s overwhelming and paralyzing. Like me, you try list-making tools, apps, and planners. Start one system, forget to use it, abandon it, and start another. Don’t even want to try a new one because you’ve lost confidence it will work. After years of trying hacks, there’s…
I’m writing this on Monday. Because Monday is my “writing day.” I write this blog, my podcast, and a few social media posts today. It might be hard to imagine thinking: “This is my day to be creative” and then produce on demand. I also thought this was impossible. But now it’s like clockwork. Every Monday. It’s…
