We think approximately 60,000 thoughts each day. Many of these will be negative thoughts. Our brain will tell us that we doing something wrong. It will tell us we’re not good enough, and it will tell us we are too slow, too old, too something. It tells us things that are never good. Our negative […]
Do you invest in yourself? Up until a couple of years ago, the investment I made in my mind and my life was somewhat limited. Sure, I bought the occasional self-help book and watched a couple of Ted Talks, but other than that, I never really thought beyond that. I didn’t really think much about […]
I’ve never believed I was a creative person. Ever. Mainly these thoughts were related to the arts. I can’t draw and if I had to draw something, it’d probably be a house with a tree. Music? Definitely not. Creative writing? Nope. Now that I’m a coach and managing my own practice, it’s key to be […]

However, the truth is, self-confidence is a choice we make. We decide we will have confidence in ourselves. Having self-confidence means we feel secure in ourselves […]
What are you putting off until you are “ready”? Don’t wait until you think everything is right. Sometimes just getting started is enough. There will probably never be a perfect time. I have been thinking for years about starting my own podcast. But I always had a reason (ahem, excuse) as to why I couldn’t. […]
Letting go is hard. It takes time. Sometimes it takes a lot of time. And by a lot of time, I mean years. Some people never let go. Letting go is healthy and is an integral part of our growth and expansion. Often, we can conceptually know that something – a job, a relationship, a […]
When you think you can’t do something, you are probably going to prove yourself right. If you wait until you are completely sure you can do it or do a good job, you will never get started.
