How to Make a Good Business Investment: 4 Lessons I Learned the Hard Way

“In one year, I will help you add $100K or more to your bottom line.” This was a lofty promise to make to 25 year-old me, who was just beginning her business, but Bill’s voice was like music to my ears and every one of my pain points. I decided right then and there that his program was a good business investment. By the time I was attending Bill’s business conference in late March 2015, I had already wracked up a good deal of credit card debt in order to make my business “look” and feel legitimate. Bringing in $100K over the next year would solve that problem and then...

Helping a Human Design Projector Experience Career Success

Human Design

Have you ever wondered what’s possible when you receive coaching based on your human design chart? Lean in because I’m about to share my client journey with Dareen, a 4/6 splenic human design projector. When Dareen and I decided to work together earlier this year, she was in a job that was dragging her down. One of her major goals was to leave her current company and land a new role that was more aligned with her values. Here’s how our journey went: 💟 DAREEN IS A HUMAN DESIGN PROJECTOR From the start, it became clear that Dareen was not feeling seen or recognized in her current position. With a...

Unlock the Flow of Abundance With Human Design Strategy and Authority

Human Design, Travel

Last week, Ryan and I decided to go for an afternoon stroll around San Miguel de Allende. As we rounded a bend near the center, we came face to face with a fountain. I stopped in my tracks when I noticed this fountain because while the basin was overflowing with water, the stream was slightly missing its mark. Standing there, observing this happen, I realized how reflective it is of life. What if Life is consistently funneling blessings and opportunities towards us? But… if we’re not positioned to receive them, they simply miss their mark? If only we moved our hands a little to the right, we could catch the...

A New Chapter Begins 📖

Travel, Human Design

I’ve been IN IT lately. Have you? On June 1st, Ryan, Creature, and I packed up our Sayulita apartment and drove clear across the country to start a new chapter in San Miguel de Allende, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its art, rich history, and charming colonial beauty. We chose to spend the summer in San Miguel because the cool, dry weather is a stark contrast to Sayulita’s intense heat and humidity. Little did I consider how tough this new chapter was going to be. Sayulita is my soul home. It’s one of the few places in the world that feels like an expression of who I know myself to...

A Gift in the Dark: Lessons on Self-Love & Personal Power

Relationships, Human Design

“What if you’re powerful, even when you’re not creating or expressing? What if your power is never ‘off’—there are simply times when it isn’t visible to the world?”* As I let these questions sink in, my entire body exhaled—a breath I didn’t know I was holding.These are the kind of questions that make your shoulders drop and your thoughts stop. The kind that shake up your world to the point where it will never be the same again. In the span of seconds, I was anchored in and buoyed by a new truth. The puzzle pieces of self-understanding rearranged and clicked into place. And I felt free. Throughout my journey...

The Call Back Home: A Return to What We’ve Lost

Travel

Feet sinking into sand. Sticky air. Heat kissing my face and arms. The sound of waves galloping to shore. Foamy fingers; bubbles popping.The call back home. Birds whistling. Palms rustling. Driftwood everywhere. The sharp scent of smoke. Salt and ash on my tongue. And the foul bowels of low tide. I am here, in my body, tasting every sense, one at a time. My phone is untouched in my backpack. There is no podcast playing. There is no book in my hands. It is just me and the ocean, her heartbeat thumping rhythmically with mine. As a collective, we are losing the experience of presence. The devices in our hands...

What a Bad Surfer Taught Me About Hitting Home Runs

Travel, Business

I learned something new this week: Ryan is pretty bad at surfing. Most days around 5pm, we close our computers and head down to the beach. While Ryan typically surfs in the gray dawn of morning, on Tuesday, he decided to bring his board. Knowing how fond he is of the sport, I was excited to witness him catch a wave. I mean, he’s surfed in Portugal, Australia, and Peru; he had a business training professional athletes; and he was a YES to Sayulita for surfing! He must be good, right?! After picking out an empty spot on the sand, I unfolded my chair, sat down, and scanned the horizon for...

Going On a Trip? Bring Conscious Relating to Travel with These 7 Questions

Relationships, Travel

✈️ Before embarking on each new adventure, my partner and I have a conscious conversation designed to deepen our experience of a trip. Conscious relating is something we’ve been practicing since we met. When we first came together as virtual strangers to live as roommates in Mexico, there were a lot of unknowns. What if our personalities and lifestyles were vastly different? What if our daily routines clashed? What if we got on each other’s nerves and there was conflict? The typical response for me—and, I would assert for many others—is to brush these questions under the rug, let the trip unfold, and then deal [or not deal] with whatever comes up. ...
