In 2024, these three words became more than an intention for me. They became tools—lenses through which I examined uncertainties, challenges, and opportunities.
For the first nine months of 2024, I navigated various medical issues. None of them were individually severe, but in succession, they were draining, distracting, and limited my ability to live fully. The most disruptive was a torn meniscus that required surgery—not exactly part of the plans I had envisioned when booking trips to Alaska, Santa Fe, and Ireland. Despite my injury, I resolved not to let it derail those experiences.

When I meet someone for the first time, and they ask me what I do, I tell them I’m a coach dedicated to helping them unlock their creativity and bring their most important dreams into focus.
Their curiosity usually leads to the next question, “How do you do that?”
Instead of giving a simple answer, I ask them a different question: What do you want to create for yourself, personally or professionally, that you don’t have yet? With an emphasis on the word “yet.”
I love watching what happens next.

You’ve likely heard about the importance of storytelling in your work, but what does that really mean? And more importantly, where else is storytelling shaping your life?
The short answer is we tell stories for many reasons, including to create a vision, share information, motivate/influence ourselves and others, leave an impression, or share an experience. We create stories to deal with uncertainties and make sense of all going on around us.. Stories are used to create safety, justify why we do or do not take action, and go after what we want in life.

Do you ever feel like there’s a barrier between you and your aspirations, something that seems to keep you from fully reaching your potential?

Often, this barrier isn’t visible; it’s a voice inside your head – your inner critic – that casts doubt on your abilities and ambitions.
