You know that place in your life when you’ve realized SOMETHING has to change?

Or you’ve got a gut instinct that something is about to SHIFT…and you have no idea what it’s gonna look like?

Maybe you don’t even know HOW you WANT it to look in the future!

You sit...

Here are 3 tools you can use today to help you move forward when you feel sluggish or low…

Fairly easy tools you can do right now.

Tool 1: Look Back/Look Now

First, I think back about a year - and remember some things I really wanted for myself. 

Once I remember the gist of those...

I’ll be honest with you, friend. I could NOT get my shit together at the end of 2019.

Yea, yea - it was holidays. All the family things. Gifts to buy & wrap. And travel.

So much distraction & overwhelm.

I spent a lot of time comparing myself to what other people were doing, and that...

Today I gave a cursory glance to my right at a stop sign. Turned left.

And THEN it registered in my brain there was a car at that stop sign who CLEARLY had the right of way.

Oh, God. I’ve turned into THAT jackass.

Sigh. It’s time to admit I have a problem.

I’m always thinking...

Back in the olden days of 1980-something, my dad complained about the thousands of decisions he’d make every day at work.

Sounds like a luxury! I mean - kids...

I’ve been checking out social media on and off over the last month, and I’m always both impressed and stunned by what people can pull off during the most difficult most wonderful time of the year.

How does everyone else out there DO IT ALL??

All those parents who make their little...

I feel like an IDIOT.

I’m sure no one else in my place would have such a hard time, but I’m about to LOSE IT.

Rain’s pouring into my hair & down my face - which is driving me freaking crazy.

My cheery bright blue down coat is now soaked - an albatross, weighing me down.

...

It was the perfect storm - one of those crazy years Christine could easily disappear inside of.

In the next years’ time, one daughter would get married. The other would graduate high school. And a huge interstate move was coming her way.

She knew herself well enough to know that...

Sometimes the things that affect our business, don’t have anything to do with the business itself.

It has to do with our own internal struggles that we deal with on a day to day basis.

It’s difficult to admit but…

I used to let my weight affect my business.

Sounds a little out...

Do you ever feel like you can’t put your stuff out there because it’s not 100% your idea?

With all the content that’s out there, it’s easy to see why getting hung up on being 100% original all the time can freeze us in the moment.

Whether you’re an entrepreneur or...

Jack sat at the table, incredibly agitated. He’d seen a man across the dining room of the restaurant and was upset by him.

The man, an older man - well into his 70s - was having a bottle of wine, eating alone.

His solitude made Jack sad, so he created a story that the man was awaiting a...

Annie & I had about 7 minutes left on our call back in September when I asked about her marketing plan for the holiday season.

She groaned & said she hadn’t thought about it.

I said, “Let’s bang it out now. We can hammer out all 10 weeks of content topics & a...
