What could be better?
by Melissa McGinness
Do you know someone who has accomplished incredible things? Do you know someone who has dedicated their life to something they’re really passionate about?
What do you think is different about them? What do you notice that really stands out?
Do they think differently?
Do they take risks?
Do they care more than the rest of us?
Or is it really just luck?
Before I started coaching I left too much of my life up to luck.

Honor Your Discontent - It's giving you important information
by Kelly Olson
We don’t always know what our life’s purpose or journey is supposed to be or we may have so dreams we are overwhelmed with them all. However, one thing is for sure: if we are feeling restless or discontent we are not living our dreams!

Who are you when no one is around?
by Aline Badr
I don’t have kids, and if I did, I would teach them to listen to their toes . . .
Sounds strange? Maybe.
It would be the usual say a prayer of thanks at bedtime, send kind thoughts to others, and most importantly, check-in with your inside voice – what is it telling you? Where do you hear it? Your heart, your gut, your toes, your elbows? Every chance I get I would remind them that there is a sea of information to explore, through a quiet inner voice, through their feelings and all the ways each part of their bodies might be sending messages.
