    5 Reflection Questions for Finding and Using Your Voice

    One of the things I love about hearing other people’s journaling stories is that they often articulate benefits of their practice that I’ve experienced but haven’t put to words before. One such benefit I heard from a client a year ago was that journaling helped her to find and use her voice so she could stand up for herself. Finding your voice and expressing your deeper needs can be the most powerful final step to take in re-writing your patterned responses to triggers. Recog

    5 Reflection Questions for Uncovering Your Passions

    It’s back to school time and in honor of the season, I’ll be posting a series of blogs that share insights from some of my favorite teachers! As I say in my book, the first practice in the entrepreneur’s journey of mastery is understanding yourself. This is a crucial and ongoing process of deepening self-awareness. Tasha Eurich, author of Insight, defines self-awareness as, “the ability to see ourselves clearly – to understand who we are, how others see us, and how we fit int

    Try This One Simple Trick for Reframing Fear

    Do you ever have those weeks where the same conversation keeps coming up with a bunch of different people? That’s been happening to me lately. It’s like there’s this collective struggle we are all dealing with and it’s nice to know you’re not alone. One moment of profound awakening I had years back was when I realized that the entire notion of being fearless is BS. Fear is always there. It’s hardwired into our DNA and for very good reason. The problem is that all too often we

    Tired of the Emotional Roller Coaster Ride from Putting Yourself Out There? Checkout These 4 Reflect

    We went around the park, with camcorder in hand. And we now have a home video of bears being super cute and my brother asking every other second, “Did you get that?” Followed by my Dad responding, “Yeah, I got it!” As I reached a new level of putting myself out there with the release of my first book last fall, I felt like my brother in that video. I would send an email, then constantly check to see if I’d gotten a response. Or I’d post a video on social and continually check

    Four Steps for Redirecting Negative Self-Talk

    I learned the hard way that even after you experience success, you still have to deal with rejection and feelings of self-doubt. It doesn’t matter how successful you are, rejection hurts. Even very accomplished individuals experience imposter syndrome. The only difference is, the truly successful professional has routines and rituals for rebounding! Here are four steps for redirecting your negative self-talk so you can maintain forward momentum on your efforts. Step 1: What T

    Three Reflection Questions for Deepening Your Self-Awareness

    I’m so fascinated by the correlation between journaling and success that I’ve started interviewing people about their journaling practices. One of the reasons I love journaling is that it deepens my self-awareness. And everyone I have interviewed so far expressed that deeper self-awareness has been one of the benefits of their practice as well. It’s amazing how such a simple act, writing in a journal, can have such a profound impact on how you see yourself and the world. But

    Among the Things I’ve Learned from My Father: Doing Favors for Others

    Performing in HMS Pinnafore! Flash back to Middle School! We were finally performing the HMS Pinafore, and the night of the final performance, select students were given the opportunity to spend the night at school for a stage breakdown party.  I was not one of those select students, and having already felt like the social outcast of Middle School (an entirely unique experience ;)), I was rather distraught. It was not fair.  Behaving much the way a Middle Schooler does, I cri

    Overcoming Adversity (con’t from Part 1) After resigning, George traveled to Australia to visit with a friend for a week and a half. While he was there he contemplated difficult life questions like: “Who I wanted to become? What kind of life do I want to live? What kind of legacy do I want to leave?” Deep Contemplation! At that time he also read Antony Robbin’s Unlimited Power “that book connected with me in a powerful way.” It led him on the path of personal development, whi
