Confidence is an inside job

Posted on October 26, 2021

Intellectually, you understand it’s important for you to take care of yourself … but you still find yourself prioritizing pleasing other people over your own needs (I call this “approval whoring”). You want to be your own best friend … but you spend a lot of time criticizing and hating yourself. You want to be […]

30% = Success???

Posted on September 21, 2021

Baseball has great lessons for life, even if you’re like me and not a baseball fan. While I never watch baseball on television, on occasion I’ll go with my lifelong Giants fan husband to a game. Even though I don’t love baseball, I love to read lots of baseball books. There are so many good […]

You want the beauty without the mess

Posted on September 7, 2021

The “beauty” is your version of the good life. It’s all those dreams you’ve had for yourself. You believe the pathway is a nice straight line, without any mess. I have an unfortunate truth for you my friend. To get to the beauty in your life…you’ll have to go through life’s mess. There will be […]

Don’t let obstacles stop you.

Posted on August 31, 2021

I used to think an obstacle meant “this is not possible for me.” Obstacles used to be my dream killers. Now I realize obstacles are something to overcome. Obstacles are the pathway to achieving what my heart desires. As I solve each obstacle I learn, grow, become resilient + move towards my goal. However, this […]

Trusting yourself

Posted on July 20, 2021

Do you second guess yourself? Do you not tell others what you think, because you are afraid you are wrong, silly, or even stupid? Are you willing to no longer tolerate this behavior? Are you ready to be YOU? What’s the relationship you want to have with yourself? You realize your lack of self-trust is […]

I want to be that person who reads the New Yorker …

Posted on July 6, 2021

… but I secretly read People. I sneak peaks of the titles while standing in line at the grocery store. I sneak reads of the articles while visiting my dentist. I want to be a person who reads the New Yorker as I want to be perceived as being intelligent and well-read. I don’t want […]

If not now, when?

Posted on June 29, 2021

I no longer hate myself. I now believe in myself. One of my [______] clients told me this recently in a coaching call.   This was huge success for her. This is the dream right? To stop hating yourself. To believe in yourself. I can already hear you … you’re telling yourself a story like this, […]

Stop waiting for permission

Posted on May 11, 2021

Isn’t it funny? You are a grown ass woman. You have major responsibilities. You are the one that gets things done for others. But you’re waiting for permission. From who? As the responsible, get-shit-done woman, it’s time to give yourself permission … and stop waiting for it to come from someone else. Stop giving your […]

Choose who you become

Posted on April 20, 2021

The conversations with clients + my AquaMonster parents, usually turn to their fears around raising their kids. They worry that they’re raising their kids “wrong” … they worry about messing up their kids … they worry about something bad happening to their child and that that something will define the rest of their child’s life. […]

My not so proud moments.

Posted on March 9, 2021

This isn’t a proud moment right now.  But it’s my turn to own my story and love myself in this moment as I share it with you.  The objections in my head say Don’t do it! Stop! You know better than to do this now so don’t bother sharing your wrong ways.  No one will […]
