The adventure of being professionally filmed
In an example of Divine Timing, this past weekend Scott Gleason Blue came up to Ithaca, New York, to film me for a project that’s been long overdue. The experience of being filmed was really interested for a number of reasons, but I want to focus on one reason today. You see, Blue has decades of […]
New Program: Heart of Your Business
I’ve been as guilty as anyone, at times, of that pressured, scurrying response to fear and anxiety, trying to answer the question, “What do I need so that this pain/challenge/trouble goes away?” One way this pattern looks in business is frantically trying to learn, usually at great expense, some very specific strategy that is finally […]
Too Sad to Work – Heart-Care First
It’s Monday morning, as I write this. I’m supposed to be working. I have calls scheduled. I have things to do, people to communicate with, and projects to move forward. In this moment, however, I feel utterly sad, numb, grief, loneliness, anger and fear – all in a mixed, tumultuous soup. I’m horrified at what […]
The pain of ending when you want to get going
I’m surrounded by boxes, my clothes are still piled on the floor because we haven’t gotten dressers yet, and while we did start cooking again, it’s more pasta and hamburgers rather than full-on cooking a meal. Yes, we finally moved into our new house at White Hawk Ecovillage this past Friday! Woo-HOO! This weekend is […]
The surprising challenge in becoming visible
Updated 2/3/21 I’ve written about networking from the heart before. Here, and here, and here. However, there’s another piece that I’ve worked with clients quite deeply, and it’s the challenge around “becoming visible.” The whole being visible piece can be vulnerable, and even scary, for many people. It often comes up just when someone is […]
[Video] Pain-point Marketing
I am SO grateful to have a team… this week we’re entering the home stretch in getting our new home at White Hawk Ecovillage built, hopefully about 3 weeks away from moving in, but have hit a snag involving the kitchen cabinets and window that may need to be moved! (Move! A window?!) Thankfully it […]
[Video] The Power of Feedback + Systems
This week, our Director of Education and Community Manager Steve Mattus digs into his speciality – the deep dive of listening deeply to the heart, and then creating systems to support following through with what your heart tells you. He uses a personal and vulnerable example of a system he recently set up. I want […]
Your nervous system was not designed for this
Before the nervous system, a quick note: Tomorrow is a double deadline. One deadline is for the super early bird pricing to save $700 on Accelerating Growth, our newest program that begins in May. If your business has had some success but is hitting real limits, then you most likely need to make real […]
Not Impressed
Super short one today, partially because I was at my mastermind retreat this past weekend in San Diego and I’m STILL wiped out. I had 10 years of traveling to these retreats from Oregon to Washington or California, and now I’m traveling from Ithaca, NY to San Diego, and whoosh… I hadn’t anticipated how much […]
My heart is very sad…
Hey there, Our beloved cat, Kira, who is 14 years old, is dying. She’s had cancer for some time, but it looks like she might not last – and, in fact, by the time you read this, we may have lost her. Please do not send personal emails. I’d love to see your wishes and […]
