Somewhere between the endless loads of laundry, wiping of tiny noses and bottoms, and balancing #AllTheThings, we’ve have to train our brain and imagination to prioritize fun and play. It doesn’t always come naturally…even when kids are playing around us all the time!
So from one tired parent to another, here’s our best advice for staying connected to your imagination while juggling parenting, work, and life!
How often do we wait until we’re overly frustrated with something we can’t do before we reach out and ask for help?
Admitting when we aren’t capable of doing something is hard and can even be pretty scary (especially something we should be able to do). After all, we want to come across as capable, have-it-all-together people who offer help to others – not admit we need it ourselves.
This month, we’re going to be exploring the value of collaboration and how we can work together to be even better, starting with asking and inviting.
How many times have you thought or even said “I really should…” in the last 24 hours?
Known as the “s” word of busy people, the act of “shoulding” all over ourselves and others is the fastest route to blame, guilt, and even shame.
Imagine what life would be like if you embraced more self-compassion and ditched this default reaction of “shoulding” and ruminating on what didn’t happen or hasn’t occurred yet.
What if you decided to live this year differently?
Imagine how your personal life, professional career, and family would change.
As we welcome a new year, we invite you to consider how you’ve been living and what you’ve been producing. Are you proud of your life now? Or do you need to make some changes?
Join us this month as we share how to develop more resilience in yourself and your children so you can start the year off stronger and more equipped for whatever is ahead!
As we wrap up another full year, what’s NOW for you?
Take a moment a reflect on what this year has held and what you’re proud to have experienced and completed – or simply started – before forging ahead to the next thing.
While being future-focused serves a purpose, it also takes us away from being present and reflecting on our lives now. This month, join us as we practice the value of reflection.
How do you feel going into 2019?
Far too often, WHO we want to BE becomes the afterthought or byproduct of a hurried and frazzled life that is so focused on WHAT we need to DO.
What if we decided to live this year differently?
Imagine what it would be like if your life was full of energy, motivation, ease, and flow.
What would be possible then?
Let’s take a deeper look at the science of resilience and what it teaches us about developing character.

How you SHOW UP matters.
It’s all too easy to present a persona that looks fine on the outside, but is craving something more on the inside.
This month, many people will be dressing up, putting on masks, and pretending to be someone else. But are you doing that in your typical life – hiding what you really, truly want and just making it work, even when it’s not?
There is so much in our world that is novel, strange, and stimulating. Yet, our day-to-day lives often resemble more of a mundane routine than an epic adventure. We get stuck in our task lists and obligations, instead of creating moments of awe, wonder, and excitement. Instead, learn how to SPARK your own curiosity!
If you are guilty of structuring your days around task completion and the ever-elusive “to do” list, only to feel like there’s never “enough” time in the day to get it all done, then you’re not alone…
When do you choose efficiency over sufficiency? Too often, the busyness of doing overtakes the thoughtfulness of being. Here are three ways you can choose to focus on sufficiency and invite more self-acceptance into your life.
When you work for yourself, determining your worth is complex and can often feel rather lonely and isolating. For most, it can feel really uncomfortable to ask for a large amount of money for something you’ve created. Especially when your brand is yourself – like so many coaches, visual artists, freelancers, consultants, and creatives – it almost feels too personal to put a number on your services, like you’re judging yourself before others have a chance to judge you. Learn how to have the courage to OWN your worth!
