  • A recent hot topic with my mastermind has been that of confidence. About two months ago, we did a webinar for the first time on it, and found that it was such a deep and wide topic.⠀ ⠀ There are a couple of things I know to be true about confidence: nearly everyone, at some point, struggles with feeling self-confident. While it’s not unusual for other people to look and act extremely confident, the thing I’ve found (especially in talking to so many guests for the podcast) is that at some point or another, everyone doubts themselves.⠀ ⠀ Join me and my mastermind besties (Julie @juliehoughtoncoach and Liz @lizapplegate) this week as we tackle the topic of confidence in a two-part episode… today you’ll get to hear part one on my show and on Wednesday, part two is airing on Liz Applegate’s show, Midlife Schmidlife.⠀ ⠀ #peoplepleasing #impostorcomplex #whynotyou #bebrave #podcast #freeworkshop #lovewhatyoudo #momlife #worklife #confidence #iamwellandgood #ownyourstory #gratitude #inspirehealthy #therealme #findyourhappy #liveboldly #justdoit #instagood #tribeclcc #jumpstartyourjoy #midlifeschmidlife #confidentwomen #vulnerability #findyourtribe #success #entrepreneur #handsandhustle
  • NorCal State Championships. Z and J are here for their second year, this time at age 7. They are bowling next to 10 year olds. I LOVE that they locked arms for the national anthem - they are a good team and good friends. Grateful for them and their friendship. #norcaljuniorchampionship #youthbowling #cloverleafbowl #teammates #nogutters #goodluckandhighscores #bowling #bowlinglife
  • In this week’s interview, Mandy Ford and I talk about how to jump start joy in your life, and she reflects on how important it is to put down your phone, and really soak in the world going on around you. I realize you’re probably on your phone right now - so … tell me … if you look up right this moment, what do you see? Tell me in the comments :)⠀ ⠀ Thanks @mandyfordart for joining me!⠀ #jumpstartyourjoy #podcast #podcastersofinstagram #lawofattraction ⠀ #mandyfordart #artlife #illustrator #illustration #artcollection #patterndesign #printandpattern #patternobserver #surfacepattern #handdrawn #myunicornlife #pursuepretty#handsandhustle #doitfortheprocess #artprocess #createeveryday #creativityfound #creativepreneur
  • Last week I got to visit my dear friend @lizapplegate on the “Texas 2018” tour. (Otherwise known as “spring break”). I’m feeling super grateful that we got to spend time together, and so blessed to have met this lovely soul with a bright, wise heart. The thing that Texas taught me - with the time to reflect - is that truly, truly, all of the most blessed and amazing things happen when we follow our hearts and take the risk. I met Liz in coach training. I met my other friend we visited in Texas when I made the leap and attended Yale Divinity School. These were both huge stretches for me. And the journey led me to some amazing people and amazing adventures. So - what can you say yes to and go for? Where have you taken the risk and been delighted by the unexpected?
