Tedx Lesson #1: An idea worth spreading is an idea worth surrendering to

One of the most powerful lessons I learned from my Tedx experience is how one idea can radically transform your life…if you allow it. When I applied to speak at TedxBend, I wanted to talk about the Inner Voice. I had been kicking around the idea for a couple years prior to that of applying […]

What Is Your New Year’s Revolution?

Resolutions seem so tired, worn-out. Over-used and under-fulfilled. Sometimes what is needed is a full-blown REVOLUTION*. Here are some ideas for you to consider in your own personal revolution: Stop doing everything that you hate doing. Especially the things you feel obligated to do. Here’s a radical bonus shot you can use to truly discern […]

Do you treat your dreams like spiders?

I talk to a lot of people and most of them have at least an inkling, perhaps tucked away safely in their heart for years, of what they feel called to do – or would like to do if they knew they couldn’t fail. This inkling, or divine spark of an idea, keeps bubbling up […]

Truth: I Dare You.

Highly Sensitive Person = A Blessing and A Curse

Growing up, my sister was the “sensitive one.” I was tough, defensive, a loner, and there was no way I was going to be sensitive and admit that I needed anyone or allow myself to feel things deeply or acknowledge that I experienced far more than I let on. No. Way. Sensitive meant wimpy, soft, […]

I’m going to let you in on a little secret. “Quantum Leaps” are one of the coaching industry’s biggest marketing myths.
