Hi Reader, So many of us spend years looking outside ourselves for the next right move. We hire experts, read books, scroll through advice, hoping someone else will hand us the answer. Here’s the shift we’re inviting you to make: leading yourself starts when you stop outsourcing your power. You can lean on resources and wisdom while still remembering that you get the final say. Reflection, tools, and community are here to bring you back to what you already know, not to shape you into someone...

Hi Reader, Have you ever felt: "I want two things at once, and I feel guilty or confused no matter what I choose.” I want to work, and I want more time with my kids.I want to be needed and I want freedom.I want to reach my full potential and I want to rest. It feels like contradiction. But what if it’s actually your inner voice, knocking at the door? The way we’ve been taught to live is cracking. Burnout rates are at record highs, technology is accelerating at inhuman speeds, and many of us...

Hi Reader, If you feel like your calendar is running your life instead of you, you’re not alone. So many of the women we work with say the same thing: they’re accomplished, they’re holding it all together…AND...they’re exhausted. The good news? Regaining a sense of control doesn’t mean overhauling your entire life or burning it all down to start over. You can start with just a few small, but intentional shifts. Here are four that came up in this week’s podcast conversation with Human...

Hi Reader, The women we work with aren’t lacking ideas or ambition. They have that in spades.What they’re lacking is space. Mental space. Emotional space. Time to think a thought all the way through. (Moms...you get this, right?) And without that space, it’s hard to imagine anything beyond what’s right in front of you. The to-do lists, meetings, laundry, bills, emails, obligations... And when you’re in that place, possibility doesn’t feel exciting.It feels far away. Indulgent, even. You can’t...

Hi Reader, There are seasons when it all just feels like too much.Too many decisions. Too many demands. Too many tiny things to remember.And somehow, yet again, you’re the one holding it all. Whether it’s back-to-school prep, a big work project, or just the mental weight of being the default everything, this time of year has a way of turning up the pressure. We’ve been talking a lot about that lately. Not just the overwhelm itself, but the systems, habits, and mindset shifts that actually...

Hi Reader, I used to think that I needed a “day off” or “just more hours in my day” to feel like I could catch my breath. And (I’m guessing that like you), that really never happens.But, I’ve realized that my peace actually comes from how I use the space I already have. For example, my daily walk home after dropping my daughter off at school used to be filled with phone calls and podcasts.Now? It's a quiet time that I claim as mine.Let’s call it a margin moment.And having that time, and using...

Hi Reader, I’ve been thinking a lot about time. How we spend it. How we protect it. How easy it is to fill it without meaning to. Last week, I shared that we lost my brother-in-law, Mark. In the time since, I’ve witnessed the incredible ripple effect of a life lived with presence and intention. Mark knew what mattered. He poured into his people. And the love that came back to him in those final days was a reflection of that. It has me looking closely at how I’m living, too. Where am I...

Hi Reader, Before I get into this week's newsletter, I wanted to share some personal news. On Sunday, my brother-in-law Mark, passed after a 2 year battle with Stage IV Colorectal Cancer. We are heartbroken to no longer have his presence in our lives, but are so thankful that his fight and suffering is over. The topic of today's newsletter and the podcast this week is Relationships. And I want to take a minute to honor Mark and just say how timely I think this topic is. Relationships were...
