We are living through an unprecedented time where many people are feeling a heightened sense of fear and anxiety, and so I want to check in with you. I’m wondering, how are you bringing calm into your experience? Now more than ever, it’s important for you to intentionally create a quiet time for mindful reflection. […]

In last week’s blog, I wrote how I had been stuck in thought of not knowing what to write about.  Now this week, quite the opposite is true. With so many people feeling worried and fearful about the Coronavirus, I have so much to say that it was difficult to decide what to choose first.  […]

I set aside some time last Tuesday to compose this blog, but then I struggled to come up with something to write about. “I just don’t know what topic to focus on,” I thought, as my mind went blank. Throughout the week as I tried to come up with something interesting, my thoughts would spin […]

I was contemplating a situation that was happening in my personal life one morning on my walk, and I was really focusing in on the unfairness of it all. Yes, I’m a life coach, and I was feeling sorry for myself and indulging in the “victim role”. I use the word indulging because I knew […]

One evening last fall when we were heading to bed, my husband, Jerry, informed me that he received an alert on his phone that there were gale force wind warnings for our area that were expected to last throughout the night.

One morning, as I started […]

Interestingly though, I’m finding that some of my clients seek out life coaching because although they are […]

The first month of 2020 is officially over, and we are now into February! I’m wondering, are you on track with your goals? Or I guess I should first ask, have you developed clear goals for the year? If your answer is “yes” and you are on track, good for you! That’s awesome!  However, if […]

The sun was shining brightly when I went for my walk a few weeks ago, and the temperature was in the 60’s. As you might imagine, this is very unusual weather for January in Northeast Ohio. The warm air and sunshine felt absolutely delectable, but the very best part for me was the sound of […]

One thing I really like about walking in the wintertime is that the trees and bushes are bare, and so the view into the woods is expansive.  Every once in awhile, when I remember to take the time to look, I get a glimpse of one of mother nature’s hidden treasures. As I began my […]
