68: Are you "confused"? Here's the antidote.
Now We're Getting Somewhere
I do a lot of work on clarity, and many people come to me saying they feel confused. Feeling confused can be exhausting + frustrating. In my work, I've found that many people who think they are confused — are actually just being *imprecise*. In this episode, I share three things that are often revealed, when we actually get precise about our problems. These three things are far more actionable than confusion — and I'd bet if you're confused, you're *actually* dealing with at least one (if not all three).

67: Clarity + Quality Time
Now We're Getting Somewhere
Here's something I've been telling tons of clients lately: if you want clarity on a topic, one of the easiest + simplest first steps you should take is to spend quality time with your topic or problem or question. In this episode, I talk about what quality time is, what it isn’t, and I get practical about how you can, more tactically, have “quality time” with whatever it is that you want clarity about. This concept might seem small or too simple — but I can guarantee that most of you aren't doing it yet...and would really benefit from trying it. For additional...

66: One More Things (My New Year's Suggestion)

This is a simple idea that doesn’t require willpower or a full tank of energy. As we start this new year, and as always, I’m rooting for you.

65: 3 personal examples of Rightness
Now We're Getting Somewhere
As I prepare for my upcoming course, “How To Know What You Want,” I have been thinking a lot about how to make decisions, “Rightness,” and knowing what you want. So today, I wanted to talk about these topics from a personal lens. I share 3 examples of recent decisions that I made that had Rightness to them - and how I came to those decisions. These examples were all different situations (some important, some relatively trivial), I made them in different ways (some quickly, some slowly), and they had different outcomes (including one that went poorly). Rightness...

64: What "Rightness" is (and what it *isn't*)
Now We're Getting Somewhere
In this episode, I share about what “Rightness” is, and why it matters. Why do we even care about Rightness? I also talk a bit about what Rightness isn’t. Sometimes I think understanding how things don’t operate can give us a lot of insight about how to cultivate them. Ultimately, I think that Rightness is what we're all seeking — with decisions big and small. I hope you'll join me for this important exploration of the topic. This topic, among others, will be covered in my upcoming course “How To Know What You Want.” Learn more about the course at ....

61: “Because I want to” is a reason (and might be the *best* reason)
Now We're Getting Somewhere
I talk to a lot of people who are in the process of figuring out what they want. There's often one thing that I’m listening for — or feeling for — in those conversations, and that is: “because I want to.” So in this episode, I clarify what I mean by this and share why this is helpful + address some of the objections I suspect you’re probably already having. I share a client story and a personal story + end with a mini FAQ where I answer questions like, “what if I can’t find my ‘because I want to?’” I hope this episode helps you find clarity if you...

60: "How do I make sure it's not ‘Grass Is Greener Syndrome'?" (Q&A)
Now We're Getting Somewhere
Today I am answering a question from a newsletter subscriber. Alexine asks: How do you check in with yourself before making a major move to check it's not "grass is greener" syndrome? She shares: “We are looking to do a big move to the UK from Canada, and we do genuinely believe it's the right situation for us and our family. However, how do we check in with ourselves first and make sure we're not "chasing happiness.”” The heart of this question - “how do I make sure this is not just a case of thinking the grass is greener on the other side?” is something that...

59: My new favorite practice (that’s not journaling)
Now We're Getting Somewhere
In this episode, I share with you my new favorite practice — that's not journaling. I discovered it about a month ago when I was feeling pretty discouraged. I was frustrated with myself and I wanted to find a way to pull myself out of that moment. Typically, I'd do some journaling in that kind of moment — but it wasn't possible, and I also didn't *want* to. I know that for many of my clients, journaling just isn't their favorite — or maybe they do love it, but don't always have the time, or are looking for some new ideas. I share what this practice is, the different ways I...
info_outlineI am answering another newsletter subscriber question today. Camilla asked:
“I’ve just gotten divorced and not worked for some time while we relocated abroad and tried for a family. I have to get back to work but I’m scared and worry about how to communicate my career gap.”
Camilla's question is about charting a new path after a divorce, but I think it's also a question about much broader themes: how to figure out our next steps at any season of our lives, and how to balance our future needs with our current needs.
As I answer this question in this episode, I share 3 suggestions to keep in mind.
I also reference these two previous episodes that may provide additional insight into this question:
