Magic

For the past couple of years, I’ve been a coach trainer at the life coaching school that I was certified at 10 years ago. During the final class with my coaching students, I tell them to go out and make magic. I believe that coaching people and helping them access their inner knowing is nothing […]

Clarity

Today I am starting to tackle the 3 Cs of building a culture of leadership. The first one is Clarity. We can’t know where we’re going if we don’t first have a clear understanding of where we are. In order to start building an engaging culture of leadership, you have to have a clear understanding of […]

Homecoming

Do you choose a theme for the year? My theme for the year is Homecoming. When I reflected on what I wanted 2021 to be like for me, I kept coming back to the idea that I wanted to really feel like I was sinking into myself. I want to show up as myself 100%I […]

‘We Don’t Need Or Want Teachers Like You.’

Not going to lie. Waking up to having someone challenge my thoughts or ideas wasn’t the best start […]

Sleeping Under The Stars

Have you ever passed up on an opportunity or adventure because you felt like your folks didn’t do things like that? In other words, have you deemed something, anything, as “White People Shit?” If you know the Color Outside story, you know one of the first meetups I had was on a hike where we […]

Are You Talking Yourself Out Of Joy?

Have you ever consciously made the decision to not get too happy, too comfortable, too “fill-in-the-blank” simply because IF something happened you didn’t want to be disappointed? Example: Let’s say you’re up for a promotion at work. Instead of allowing yourself to be excited and think about the possibilities, you squash those feelings of excitement so […]
