This is for you if …

You’re weary and worn from trying to “have a better life.”

You may put on an air of confidence, but you know it’s not completely true. If it were, you would be somewhere else right now … in a life that welcomes you.

You’re at a time in your life where you’ve realized you need to live for yourself, to do what you want to do rather than what “is done.” You want to live *your* life, not your kids’, not your partner’s, and not your bosses’.

But the frustrating part is, you don’t really know what that life would look like, or how to get there! (Do you need to leave your job or your way of being? Or both?)

You need some help getting clear on what your desires are and how to be brave in choosing yourself (and not feeling guilty and selfish).

And, there are a few things that you know about your ideal life already.

You want to wake up in the morning and know that you are not going to suffer and be miserable at work, and that all of your hard work is paying off.

Honestly, honestly: You yearn to be at home and garden, bake, read, or write. And you also want to travel, to see parts of the world that feel significant to you.

You want to do things on your own schedule, slowly and without the crazy time stress you’re used to.

You want to make art, and to have the courage to share what you create.

It’s not too much to ask.

The problem is, you feel stuck as to what to do next. You struggle with your mindset, fearing that your life will always feel like drudgery and disappointment.

What, exactly, needs to change? What’s the magic formula, the silver bullet? What do you add in, order to have a life that welcomes you?

Here’s the counterintuitive truth: you don’t need to add much. Rather, you need to subtract.

What Do You Need to Break Free From?

When people come to me for coaching, there’s a significant “subtraction” that needs to happen in order for them to feel free and on-purpose. It usually falls into one of three categories:

• A stressful, draining job that’s no longer a fit
• An unhealthy relationship that has run its course
• An old role, habit, or way of being that doesn’t feel right

What is it for you, dear reader?

Maybe you’re like my client Clare, who’s giving notice at her high-demand job – thereby disobeying her parents’ rule: “If you obligate to something, you have to see it through, no matter what.”

Or maybe you’re like my client Lisa, who’s leaving her dysfunctional romantic partnership – thereby facing her lifetime fear of being “selfish.”

Or maybe you’re like my client Thomas, who’s launching his own creative business – thereby shifting the decades-long pattern of not putting himself out there and being invisible.

(Or maybe you’re like me, learning to let go of constant self-pressure and a habitual sense of overwhelm.)

Whatever it is, the thought of letting go brings up big feelings. It feels like your identity is on the line. That’s because it is. The person you used to be would never have stepped out.

But what would it be like to break away?

What would you leave behind, if you had full permission?

Who would you be, if you were free to pursue your own path?

If you’re not sure yet, that’s understandable. These are big questions, and we need to go gently into them.

You *do* know this much, though: You’d love to take a break. You crave time with nothing in it, time to just be still.

But when you do have pockets of time to yourself, the stillness feels scary. So you hurry back to being “productive.”

And then you feel so frustrated; why couldn’t you tune in to yourself when you had the chance?

Well, because truth rises up in the stillness. And while this is exactly the medicine we need, it can be hard to give it to ourselves.

That’s why I created this new event: as a space for you to take pause, tune in, and listen to what your life is saying to you.

It’s an opportunity to turn down the noise, reconnect to yourself, and clarify your next step.
