Don't hire me if you want me to agree with you. Part of my job is to challenge your thinking, to not believe the stories you're telling yourself about why you're stuck or what's stopping you or how you just. don't. know.

I don't buy it.

I am here to shine a light on your stories, your thinking, to hold it all up for examination and to ask, "what if that weren't true? What would you do then?" What if believing every thought you think was optional?

AND-- at the same time I'm challenging the thinking I am holding such deep belief IN you, for what lies beyond the thought storms and below the surface. I know how much there is to learn through taking taking action.

There is always a next step in front of you.
Let thinking settle (roots). Take the action (wings). #both #rootsandwings

This is one of my favorite client-agreements (with credit to MY teachers and coaches for sharing it with me). I love helping people figure out what they COULD do to move an idea forward. I believe that there are always different options and directions we could head, and I geek out when brainstorming those possibilities. At the same time, I am not the one on the journey --- you are. So whatever action is taken is never up to me. What I can do, though, is put an idea on the table and invite you -- with zero expectation or judgement-- to say yes, no, or renegotiate. Big credit to @stacimcgowan this week for saying yes to one of these experiments, taking some #terrexcitifying action, and sharing some pretty amazing messages here on IG. #rootsandwings

And oh yes this too. I'm not sure you realize how perfect this spread was.

Morning sketches. New ideas. #rootsandwings #both

Wise words. @humblethepoet

All right everybody. After a bit of a hiatus I am creating a new coaching project over at The @coachingapothecary
If you’ve been joining me here for the ideas and thoughts I like to share around self-awareness, action, creativity, bringing new things to life, etc, head over to the new account and follow there. It’s likely where I will be spending more time on IG when wearing my coaching hat. Fun note: It’s the sister account of a radio show I’ve started over on @anchor.fm (called, you guessed it, The Coaching Apothecary) that can also be listened to through your podcast channels. The whole thing is experimental and inspired by a simple desire to record and share the tools I love to pull from and use when I am in coaching conversations with amazing people like you. Hope to see you on the other side!

It’s very likely that I’ve made some of you here a #mixtape on this thing. Currently in use, along with every CD I’ve ever owned, by my 8 year old. Also, hello again.
