Untamed has been everywhere this year and I finally picked up a copy. If you haven’t seen it, it’s Glennon Doyle’s latest book and an exploration of the ways women are suppressed by society and themselves. Laura and I really dig into the idea of becoming “untamed” in this episode. We talk about our resistance […]
This year has been full of emotional tests. On top of normal life and all its usual highs and lows, we are still navigating a global pandemic, upended routines, and changing norms around our relationships.  We wanted to explore triggers on this week’s episode because many of us have been triggered more than usual lately.  […]
This week Laura and I are really digging into the idea of bold, direct, honest business communication. We talk about bringing integrity and authenticity back to the core of our conversations with clients new and old.  We talk about what it means to find your own unique voice, how to start uncovering the conditioning that […]
Last week Laura and I explored some of the things that keep women from stepping into true leadership. We talked about the habit of over-owning, the conditioning of the patriarchy, and the ways we choose to perpetuate these patterns.  This week we want to explore the next step: becoming embodied, intrinsic leaders.

I have made huge strides in the way I think about hiring. I am connecting with the people I really need in my business and getting things off my plate that I don’t want to do – and I am doing it all in a way that feels great.  I didn’t used to feel this […]
Do you think of yourself as the CEO of your business? I know for me “CEO” used to sound too… big. Or complicated. Or stressful. It sounded like the opposite of what I wanted my business to be. But recently I have been playing with the idea that I can and should see myself as […]
Usually our lives are made up of patterns that ebb and flow. As a business owner, things in your business may rise and fall by the month or the quarter. But this year has thrown all of our regular cycles and routines up into the air and sent us scrambling to make new ones. All […]
This year has made it clear that we need to rethink so much about our lives and communities. And I know that in a lot of ways this is scary, but I think it provides us with a huge opportunity, too.  Now is the time to dig into our deepest desires and bring them to […]
