Becoming Unf*ckwithable


"Resistance will tell you anything to keep you from doing your work."

--Stephen Pressfield


Reader,

Last night I hosted a virtual event for a business incubator. Nine entrepreneurs came as they were. They didn’t need to come on camera to breathe, to reflect, to reset. They just needed to schedule the space and listen to themselves. I guided them.

They came to the room rushed, confused, anxious, apologizing for tardiness, and overwhelmed. They left calm, focused, and ready to peel back one layer of the onion of their emotional life. They decided to look at their thoughts and beliefs. They decided to focus their minds by focusing their bodies.

We connected to the breath.

We connected breath with movement.

We connected with our current self, our future selves and the paths in between.

We learned how to write it all out.

We learned how to prepare for resistance.

We appreciated ourselves exactly as we were without trying to accomplish anything.

We rested. We reset. We learned that it possible for us to slow down to speed up. We left feeling calm, focused and ready for the next chapter.

it was such a powerful night that I decided to host a free virtual session for you all to thank you for being in my community.

Next Tuesday, April 8, 7-8pm CST

When the world feels crazy all around you, it is possible to build without burnout. Do the work you were born to do.

"The most productive thing you might do today is deciding how your workday will end." Reader, I want to share a personal journey that transformed my relationship with rest and self-care during perimenopause. It's a simple story about creating boundaries that might resonate with many of you navigating similar waters. For months, my evenings followed a downward spiral pattern. I would set a reasonable 10pm bedtime, then I'd mysteriously become wired just as the hour approached. The day's...

Hi Reader, Let me tell you about something magical that happens when two women create space to truly see each other. Picture this: Two women sitting together. Not networking. Not fixing. Not comparing. Just BEING. One might be staring down a career change. The other? Navigating the vast, sometimes terrifying landscape of an empty nest. Their stories are different, but their hearts? Completely in sync. What Happens in Those Moments of Real Connection When women pause and create intentional...

Hi Reader, Lots of people quote Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King's most famous excerpts. Not a lot of people read his letters, speeches or understand the lineage of thinkers who inspired him. I spent some of MLK day cuddled up with a book Dr. King read and re-read during the Montgomery Bus Boycotts, Jesus and the Disinherited by Howard Thurman. Thurman was a contemporary of Dr. King's father and a mentor to Dr. King. Thurman led a delegation to meet Mahatma Ghandi in 1936 and over his lifetime...
