      <image:title>Blog - Where to Start - I want to talk about beginning your personal growth journey. Let’s say you’re here because you’re intrigued, but overwhelmed, and you’re just trying to figure out where the heck to even start. Well, any Sound of Music fans in the house?  “Let’s start at the very beginning, a very good place to start. When you read, you begin with A,B,C. When you sing, you begin with Do, Re, Mi.” And when you coach you begin with limiting beliefs, limiting beliefs, the first right things just happen to be, limiting beliefs.  See what I did there. Who doesn’t love a good lyric? Anyhow, about our beliefs. Our beliefs aren’t always consciously held. Trust me, I’ve excavated many of my own that I didn’t realize were even there. We often wonder why we can’t just x, y, z, why we get in our own way. And it’s for good reason, because our beliefs about a situation are often carefully hidden in our subconscious, underneath our logical, conscious, higher-functioning minds.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Where to Start - Something I’ve noticed about myself is that I often use this preface when I believe things are ‘hard’. I will say, I want to lose weight, but it’s just so hard. Parenting is so hard. Battling creative resistance or writer’s block is so hard. Life is so hard. You see what I mean. So, not only do I have beliefs that these things are hard, but what the heck does that even mean? What does hard mean to me?</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - My Why - My training program, the Wayfinder Life Coach Training with the Martha Beck Institute, not only taught me the how, it asked me to discover my why. I knew I wanted to serve others, but for myself, what was I hoping for? With my training ending over the summer, I’ve been sitting with these questions even more, “Why do the stakes feel so high?”, “What’s important to me about this work?”, “What am I afraid of and what do I desire?” This morning, I asked myself why again and again, going deeper and deeper. The fear I felt was so present, and it finally told me the honest truth. I never again want to do work I hate. Whew, clearly those years of back-breaking work left an impact.</image:title>
      <image:caption>We live in a culture where too often our source of income is the source of our suffering. And that’s not the legacy I want to leave for my children. I’ve worked many jobs that broke my body and spirit as I struggled to find time and energy for my artwork. I did it because culture told me that’s what a mother should do and what an artist had to do to survive. Why? I was taught that doing something you love was selfish and that everyone hates their job. Nope. Those are not truths my friend, those are chains. And it is time to break free.</image:caption>
