The Journey Begins

Thanks for joining me!

Much of my professional and personal life is spent coaching people. I often encourage people to take risks and lean into things that make them uncomfortable. I struggle to take my own advice, but I’m working hard to listen to myself and others. I want to grow and this is one way I see that growth accelerating. I have talked about writing a blog for a decade. I always tell people I want to write. I have been writing in journals for most of my life privately and never shared it. So this feels terrifying. Once I start to share I may, or you might, figure out I’m not that great of a writer and then that dream could come to an end. Or I may write something that people aren’t prepared to hear, or I’m not prepared to say. But we have one life and I want to explore it and I’d like to do something meaningful with what I discover.

I don’t have it all figured out and I don’t pretend to. I continue to struggle with how I find peace and purpose in my life. I would love to know what others are doing on their journey to live “their best life” as my 14 year old daughter would say. I’m ready to lean into something scary and I can only hope I will end up on the other side, if nothing else, more aware and open to new experiences and maybe one day I actually will be able to honestly say, “I got this!”

  2. Not only will I join you but I will follow you my friend. Once my world slows down I too will do a blog. Like you something that gives me a ton of anxiety, but thanks for paving the way.

  3. I so appreciate the time today and loved catching up on the posts I missed and looking forward to more!

    You have a way of putting out there what several of us are thinking and feeling and you make it seem not so scary!
