PLN 14: The cost of being the person everyone relies on

Time to Read: 4 mins Some coaching conversations stay with me longer than others… because they quietly reveal something important about how leadership is actually showing up. This was one of those conversations. A while back, a client was telling me about their team dynamics. They talked about h...

My 2026 Wish For You

Time to Read: 2 mins This newsletter is a little different than usual. There’s no lesson tucked inside. No practionable framework to walk you through. Just a share… and a wish. It’s New Year’s Day, and I’m sitting at my desk, grounding myself in my 2026 plan. Part of that plan is about how I brin...

PLN 13: That commitment you "make"... but never schedule

Time to Read: 4 mins A few Sundays ago, I was planning my upcoming week, as I always do. Sitting with my calendar. Looking ahead. Organizing commitments. Putting together the joyful puzzle of my life. But somewhere in the middle of it, I noticed something… My doctor’s appointment? Locked in. Coac...

PLN 12: The moment right before nothing happens

Time to Read: 4 mins There’s a sentiment I hear a lot. Sometimes from clients. Sometimes from friends. And if I’m being honest… sometimes from my own head. It sounds like this: “I just need to sit with this a bit longer before I make a move.” It sounds reasonable. Like you’re being intentional in...

Time to Read: 4 mins Ever had one of those tiny, seemingly insignificant moments that somehow manages to shine a spotlight on something much bigger?

PLN 10: When You've Quietly Outgrown Your Roles

Time to Read: 5 mins Last week, I caught myself saying yes to something… that I should've been saying no to. It was a small ask with a moderately small time commitment for someone I like, and with a project I’ve supported before. But this time, when the invitation hit my inbox, something in me fe...

PLN 09: When trying harder isn’t the answer

Time to Read: 3 mins Last week, I caught myself spiraling over a rather minor tech issue. I was recording a video when suddenly, midway through, my camera stopped working. I spent half an hour troubleshooting before realizing that the reset button on the power strip had been tripped. 🤦‍♀️ After I...

PLN 08: What To Do When Imposter Syndrome Quietly Sneaks In

Time to Read: 4 mins Have you ever had one of those moments where things appear to be going well, yet something inside still feels… off? Maybe on paper, you’ve had a victory. Yet, something is holding you back from fully owning it. And it often comes with an internal hum of: “Yeah, but…” Yeah, b...

PLN 07: Making Progress in all the Wrong Places

Time to Read: 3 mins Last week, I organized my spice racks. Okay, “organized” might be an understatement. I grouped them according to cooking style (i.e., sweet or savory), then alphabetized them within their respective groups, and finally added labels to the caps so I could see the spices at a g...

PLN 06: How Tiny Moments Can Create BIG Change

Time to Read: 3 mins It was one of those days. The kind where my calendar was packed, my focus was scattered, and the thought of one more Zoom call felt like absolute torture. I was really tempted to skip the meeting. But thankfully, I didn’t. I showed up. Camera on. Note pad ready. And shortly ...

PLN 05: Procrastination Getting In Your Way? Try This!

Time to Read: 4 mins So let’s talk about that task. You know… the one you keep pushing to tomorrow, and then the next day, and then the next? Yep, I’ve got one of those too. And if we’re being honest… most of the time it’s not the task itself that’s so unbearable. It’s what our brain starts doing...

PLN 04: Transforming Your Inner Critic into Your Inner Coach

Time to Read: 4 mins Ever have one of those days when your brain feels like it has 47 tabs open — half of them frozen, a few playing music you can’t find, and none of them doing what you need them to? That was me last week. 🤦‍♀️ My brain was flipping between a pile of to-dos, some creeping self-d...
