Your Connected Path

I’m looking forward to this time with Carol and her Overachievers Club - she creates community and learning opportunities for people who are looking for like-minded people, accountability, coaching & support.

I’ll be talking about stress and how to make friends with your nervous system - instead of exhausting yourself trying to fix it!

In last week’s “Break the Stress Pattern” webinar, we talked about the power of choice - choosing how we want to respond to stress, what we want to bring to each day, choosing the supports that feel right for each of us, as individuals.

If stress has you feeling powerless, join me for the next webinar on Tuesday, June 9 at 7pm ET. Save your spot using the link in my profile, or dm me and I’ll send the link to you.

Don’t want to wait that long? Book a 30 minute conversation with me and together we’ll find your next step to gaining control. No cost, no obligation - just a conversation to see what’s possible for you. Use the link in my profile to book your conversation.

Hi Friends -

I’m doing some research for my coaching business. I work with women who are in midlife and beyond who have realized that life’s too short to keep putting up with the status quo, and want to stop “shoulding”, people pleasing, and holding it together for everyone else. They’re at full capacity, know stress is part of the equation, but don’t know how to change gears, let go and find peace.

If this sounds like you, (or someone you know) I'd love for you to answer a few questions for me. I’m not selling anything - I just want to make sure I’m on track with what women need when they say “I’m too old for this crap!”

Here's the link to the survey - please share with your friends who might be willing to help me!

I don’t love that I often wake up grumpy, that my perfectionism and control issues sometimes take the driver’s seat, or that self-doubt gets in the way of me doing what is important to me.

But if I only look on the bright side and don’t acknowledge the shadows, I’ll never gain the ability to deal with them.

Do you ever find yourself getting upset or angry and then feeling guilty about it, trying to make it go away?

I admit - I am often tempted to focus on the positive and pretend the other things aren’t there. And that works for a little while, but if I really want to walk my talk, it doesn’t end up ringing true.

It makes sense that we want everything to be fine - pain, discomfort, anxiety, doubt and fear aren’t enjoyable. But that doesn’t make them any less valid.

I offer practical tools for acknowledging and dealing with the emotions and thoughts you’d prefer not to admit to - so they don’t feel so powerful or uncomfortable.

If this resonates, reach out for a 30-minute conversation, and I can support you in figuring out your next step. No cost, no obligation - just an opportunity to see what change is possible.

Lilacs and Dogwoods and Redbuds, oh my!!!
And honeysuckle, the last magnolia blossoms, and the songs of Baltimore Orioles…
And the fragrance…. I’m so grateful to have this treasure so close to home.

Do you ever feel helpless and at the mercy of your nervous system patterns?

What if you could choose your nervous system patterns?

(You can)

Although patterns show up in our minds, they’re part of our bodies.

So, when it comes to creating new neural pathways, changing the way you think isn’t always enough. When you learn to feel comfortable in the tall grass, creating new pathways is so much easier.

Do you notice that the more you walk along a path, or drive a certain route, the easier it gets, and the less you have to think about it?

Patterns in your nervous system are like these well-used paths. They’re with you forever, but that doesn’t mean you can’t create new patterns, new neural pathways.

You’ve heard it all before.

You need to learn to let go. To relax. To calm down.

So you add those to the list of “maybe one day, when I have time, I’ll get it figured out.”

To take just one hour out of your week to learn how to work with your nervous system?
And learn one simple, easy-to-use, in-the-moment tool you can take with you to use whenever you need?

Sometimes I look back on a conversation, or on something I did, and think “that’s not who I really am; I didn’t show up there in a way that was true to myself.”

We know how we want to show up, but it’s hard when we’re “in it”.

What keeps you from following your guiding stars, being true to who you are?

Doubt? Fear? What if? Yeah, but?

That is sooooo normal from a nervous system perspective. (And can be very frustrating and discouraging)

Doubts and fears don’t mean there’s anything wrong with you - and it’s a game changer to see them as simply a part of your nervous system doing its job to keep you safe.

If that reframe sounds like what you need right now, but you can’t get there on your own, reach out and let’s talk. We’ll identify one step you can take towards welcoming your doubts and fears, and making friends with your nervous system.

No pressure, no obligation. Just a conversation to see what’s possible.
