Are you bracing or embracing? Whether it be responding to a company layoff, a health diagnosis, the political news of the day or someone asking if they can share some feedback with you! By definition, bracing is about making something rigid, stronger or more resistant. Embracing is to accept willingly or enthusiastically. Quite the difference in approach. This episode is for you if you wish to consider where an embrace might be more powerful than a brace. Pick a life area or situation where you wish to more fully meet & engage with reality. Let's COACH and access even more of your full potential.

The Inner Critic. Saboteurs. Gremlins. No matter the name, HAVE they been lurking around lately? Tripping you up and holding you back from YOUR future? These guys are persistent and insidious. AND, as one of my favorite clients recently said, the Inner Critic often gets loudest right before growth. I have found this to be true, over and over, for myself and for others. So, I decided it's high time for a call to action - take back control & toss the Critic out of the room. I promise you, life is so much better when the chatter and noise of self doubt is silenced and you are free to GROW.
