My GEM Power

Some days pose a lot of questions.

What I find really screws me up is the picture in my head of how things are supposed to be. Or more to the point, how far along I should be (can you hear the word successful between the lines).

The impact of all the conditioning is very clear to me - how much I should be charging, what kind of 'event' is the right kind of experience, what kind of funnels, and discount codes and cadence of emails and newsletters and entertaining reels I must have. The list is very long.

And whether you are a tea somalier or a brand making hair products or a purveyor of fine baked goods or a coach you probably have a picture in your head of how things are supposed to be. Make sure that picture is really aligned for you (note to self).

Just go after your best. Understand your best, because you shine when you are whole. Being your best doesn't make you immune to failure; being your best means you get the lesson and grow.

What are the questions you have right now?

Shared a delightful conversation with before going On Air at about the fearless women, just like us, who have swapped corporate life for a whole different adventure.

We have been out there in the wilderness looking for ourselves. What we each found is that we have something, grown and shaped through our earlier experience, that there is a need for.

It's these kinds of threads that connect women. It is in these threads that we find belonging.

I love these serendipitous meet ups - unplanned, quick and full of energy.

Thank you .photo for capturing us. I was completely unaware you were doing so.

In the soap opera of my life one character has been in every scene - me.

The same goes for you. I'm sure you have thought at times you have thought "well that has no bearing on me" or "I was just an innocent bystander". In either case you have definitely been impacted.

Every time you thought you couldn't go on, you did.

Life, the whole messy or meticulous (and I'm guessing it is both) scene after scene soap opera is a collection of stories that recount the moments when your world stopped (for reasons both wonderful and terrible).

Storytelling, the kind you didn't think you could do, is an unnecessary act yet one that creates the deepest connections.

Are you ready to join a circle to tell your stories? We're waiting.
