Today, I’m sharing a previous blog post from years back that is still very relevant and timely. Read on further to see how to implement these practical strategies, right now.

One more thing, I’m opening up my schedule for limited spots to work with me 1:1 through a VIP Strategy/Coaching Session. For more details, check out the invite at the end of this blog article.

Why I’m Letting Go of Long-Term Goals…

When it comes to trying something new or embracing change or facing our fears, I’ve come to realize that sometimes it’s best and most successful to only commit to right now and short term. As in this day, this week, the next 2 weeks, the next month, or the next 3 months.

Because over-thinkers like myself, have a tendency to talk ourselves [Continue Reading...]

Late summer before my hiking trip, I met up with a former coworker at Belmont Lake State Park for a nature walk over one Saturday morning. It was a meet-and-greet between his adorable doodle puppy, Sandie, and my 3-year-old doodle, Preston. We forgot to take a photo of the pups together, and here’s why.

After we finished the walk, I couldn’t find my car key and was concerned that maybe I didn’t put it in my crossover bag. Maybe I got distracted when I went to pet Sandie and dropped it in the parking lot? Maybe I dropped it somewhere along the path? Oh goodness.

My coworker drove me home to get my spare key and we went back to the park.

Thankfully I didn’t lock my car because my house key was [Continue Reading...]

I arrived in Jackson, WY, on the only direct flight in from NY. It was the only way I was boarding a flight, at least for the start of my trip, especially for these times. My first flight and real vacation in two years.

I intuitively knew that I was standing still and needed to get myself on the flight to this hiking tour, so I can expand into the next phase in my life. I’m a fearless world traveler and badass warrior who has anxiety and who finds a way to travel anyhow.

A great deal of consideration went into deciding whether or not to travel. And then it was settling on the planning logistics to feel comfortable or reassured. Fears, anxiety, procrastination on making decisions and taking action, all came [Continue Reading...]

Yesterday, I was at the gym getting my CrossFit workout in. It was a short intense one, like most days.

15 min AMRAP
Bike 7 calories
10 Box StepUps (20lb Dumbbells/arm)
10 Toes2Bar (T2B)

I focused in on those Toes2Bar and I almost talked myself out of it. Then I paused and considered, maybe today’s the day I can do T2B again. Coming from a curiosity mindset and leaning into the possibility. I can’t even remember when I did T2B last, maybe last summer?

I felt kind of fine and my upper back wasn’t bothering me. (It’s where I have one or two ribs that tend to shift out of place from when I injured myself during a simple yoga spinal twist years ago. I know kind of silly, right? The lesson learned is the importance [Continue Reading...]

Before we get into this topic today, I want to call out a short love note at the bottom, giving you a heads up on an exclusive opportunity to work with me 1:1 through a VIP Strategy/Coaching Session. So check that out, before you move on to your next email or task or fun activity for the day. And mark your calendar!

Let’s talk about friendship, how it begins, and how it evolves over time. I shared this post recently on Instagram, but I know some of you may not be on there or may have missed this one.

6.5.21 – Nature Walk from Robert Moses Beach (field 5) to Kismet, Fire Island. One of my favorites. (And a few other photos from other times.)
