What Needs to GO on Your Path to PRO
So often when we are thinking about running a successful business, (or even may I add a successful life), we think about the things we need to do, buy, engage in, meet, create and so much more. We don’t necessarily give a great deal of thought to what we have to let go or get…

Turning Sabotage Into Your Best Friend
We all sabotage ourselves from time to time. There’s no denying it. We do it whenever we think thoughts, feel emotions, or do physical things that limit or hinder us in ways that take us in the opposite direction to where we’d like to be heading in life. Whether its telling ourselves that we’re not…

Who Would You Be If You Weren’t Your Job?
Many of the women who come to me for private coaching have a similar initial frustration: their job IS their life. They want more balance, which really means more life. (They’ve always got the “more work” part really well covered).I help them to rediscover their authentic self – the one who wanted a successful career…
