Messy + Magical: Let’s Do This Together

You will face many transitions in your life,
every one of them is an invitation to reset and reimagine.

Welcome my beautiful friends,

In the past year I’ve settled into a new home and state (for the second time in 4 years), built an entirely new community of women and dear friends, and found new love. I also revamped my whole business and worked with dozens of extraordinary clients. 

All in just one year.

In speaking with one of those exceptional clients this week, we reflected on how much her life has changed since we began working together a year ago. I have been able to see the evolution so clearly, but it wasn’t until I took her back in time to our initial conversation that she was able to see it for herself.

Specifically, to see how each conversation,

each choice,

each subtle shift in her mindset,

and each commitment she made to take action laid a new stone in her path forward. 

Over our time together she learned to pay attention to what gave her joy, what she wanted  more of and what could be left behind; and this practice of going inward and paying attention to her own wisdom, in turn, has been shaping her life in unimaginable ways.. 

While her journey is unique to her, the process of being aware and open to the unfolding path ahead is the same for all of us.  

For the past 15 years I have supported hundreds of women as they navigate times of stuckness and transition in their lives; and what has become clear to me over this time is that we shape our lives not only during significant and often challenging moments and crossroads, but even more so through the intentional choices we make each and every day.

You are going to experience many transitions  in your life…

Some will be life altering, and others will feel easy breezy; 

Some you will have been yearning for, and others will feel like they come out of the darkness with an intention to destroy you;

Some will feel like you have hit the powerball jackpot, and others will break your heart into a million little pieces. 

All of them are opportunities to reset and reimagine, and every one of them is an invitation.

Yet, while the transitional moments and crossroads are clear opportunities, it is actually how you approach each and every new day that will determine how your life unfolds. 

Unfolding is selecting the lens through which you will look at the world, and your life;

and being willing to reimagine what’s possible.

It’s where you let go of what is no longer working and what you no longer want,

move past fear, resistance and discomfort, 

and walk boldly toward becoming even more of who you are.

It is the practice of making courageous, empowered choices (large and small) even when fear makes your voice shake and you feel tears just beneath the surface.

Unfolding is recognizing that how you live your life today is how you will create the life you desire tomorrow. 

There is no beginning, or end to unfolding…but rather the practice of showing up fully in the present moment…every day.

On the good days,

the bad days,

and especially on the days where you feel the most uncertain and uncomfortable. 

It is a magical, messy and exhilarating journey.

Each month I will be sending you notes from my own journey of unfolding,

offering tips, tools and resources for your own unfolding journey,

and sharing what I have found fun and interesting that I think you might enjoy or find helpful.

I want to hear from you and what you are learning as you begin your unique and beautiful journey. I want to hear about the messy and amazing moments, and everything in between. 

Let’s do this together, 

because It’s so much more fun that way.
