☕️ Those of you who know me well know how unusual it is for me to have to have a coffee in hand. 🎯 This week, this girl has goals. And for that, I need to be alive, awake, alert, and enthusiastic. Here’s what I’m interested in developing this week: creative breaks. I need to find new ways to fuel my creativity.

This is a great reminder to the over thinkers and

This is a great reminder to the over thinkers and insight gatherers among us How many times have you caught yourself (after to put something out into the world) digging into insights or disappointed that no one is reacting or engaging? Connecting with clients online is what my friend sandrascai describes as The Long Game. Just like seeds need water, sun, and space to grow, so do your ideas, relationships, and client touch points. You’d never dream of messing up the root systems of a baby seed just planted with your fingers - poking around to see if it’s taking. 🌿 Just because you don’t see any change, it doesn’t mean you aren’t making progress! #amiright

Thursday thoughts: self care is important.

Thursday thoughts: self care is important. In the last week I’ve prioritized 😴 sleep, 💦 water, and 🍓 fresh berries (because #novascotiastrawberryseason). Filtered water to drink, salty ocean water to dip my toes in, and warm baths when I’m cool. Soothing sounds to fall asleep (current favs: crickets + lapping waves). What a difference in my energy! Curious: what are your self care go-tos?

This is SO true for me.⁣ ⁣ Way back ten years

This is SO true for me.⁣ ⁣ Way back ten years ago when I hired my first coach, I literally spent three months decluttering my physical space.⁣ ⁣ Reflecting back now it was a metaphor for the work I was also doing on the inside. ⁣ ⁣ In order to know what to hold onto you have to get rid of all the stuff you don’t need. ⁣ ⁣ Being a coach myself, I know the importance of letting go. Overthinking included!⁣ ⁣ Curious for your thoughts?

We had a baby shower for my niece and goddaughter

We had a baby shower for my niece and goddaughter Emily today!⁣ ⁣ sarahelizabethsmith_ and thisismeghanemily planned it all with Grandma catherinenoullett. ⁣ It was SO awesome! Emily & Cathy in Calgary, and the rest of us in Nova Scotia.⁣ ⁣ We were dropped off a bag with decorations, treats, a Starbucks gift card, and games. So we could all have the smart experience even though we are miles apart. ⁣ ⁣ This little boy is so lucky to have such thoughtful cousins!

Totally feeling this quote heading into Friday!⁣

Totally feeling this quote heading into Friday!⁣ ⁣ I made some BIG decisions in my business this week. I’m looking forward to sharing with you very soon!⁣ ⁣ The past eight months have been steeped with change for me and I can say unequivocally that my life is so much better for it. ⁣ ⁣ If you don’t know by now, I’m all about female empowerment. I believe happiness is our responsibility. ⁣ ⁣ If there is something in your life that is not lighting you up, how you can take some steps, starting today, to change that?

Are you looking to better understand how to connect with clients & customers online?⁣ ⁣ Have you been a master of procrastination in not getting your business online?⁣ ⁣ Playing hide and seek is not a great way to build a powerful presence because generally only YOU know the game your playing. Building trust with your audience requires commitment. ⁣ ⁣ Consistency matters. Showing up matters. ⁣ ⁣ Social Media CAN bring you the clients & customers you’re dreaming if you infuse it with strategy. ⁣ ⁣ This is been a BIG conversation I’ve been having in Her Launch Lab. My 12 month group coaching experience. ⁣ ⁣ I’m opening up ten spots starting today! If you’ve been looking for accountability, an incredible sisterhood of like minded women who are in the exact same place you are, and access to tech training that is easy-to-follow, then leave a 💛 below. I’ll fool up up with you and see if you’re a good fit!⁣ ⁣ Curious what kinds of businesses are represented inside Her Launch Lab right now?⁣ ⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Life Coach⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Destination Retreat and Yoga Instructor⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Holistic Health Practitioner⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Abstract Artist⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Jewelry Designer⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Reflexologist⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Web Designer ⁣ 🙋‍♀️ Leadership Coach⁣ ⁣ We’d LOVE for you to join us!⁣ ⁣ Want information on becoming a member?

I think we could all use this reminder from time to time.⁣ ⁣ I’ve been having conversations with so many clients and friends lately about the sheer amount of stress we are living with right now.⁣ ⁣ As a coach, I know that in times of stress, we don’t always lead from the best place. Usually, it’s our negative talk, thought patterns, and limiting beliefs that drive the bus when we feel stress. The judgement inner mean girl makes an appearance.⁣ ⁣ Cue the kindness, ladies. Instead of jumping to judgement, notice. When you feel yourself instantly judging, try this:⁣ ⁣ Notice how you’re feeling. Notice the subtle change in your breathing. Notice how you see the world just by tuning in.⁣ ⁣ When you feel the shift (and you will), consciously let go of the judgy thoughts. Then, choose kindness. ⁣ ⁣ Hope this helps!
