Hi Reader, Transitions can feel like you’re inside a snow globe that’s been shaken up. And if you're like most people I talk to, you're not just dealing with one major change. You're navigating three, four, sometimes five significant shifts all at once. Maybe it's a career that's up in the air. Adult kids who are still trying to find their path. Aging parents who need more care. A church community that's changing. An important relationship that's shifted. A loss you're still processing. One...

Hi Reader, Major life transitions have a way of unraveling everything you thought you knew about yourself. One day you're confident and clear, and the next you're wandering through thick fog: questioning every decision exhausted by the constant mental noise wondering if you'll ever feel steady again You want to move forward. You're ready to move forward. But you don't know where to start or what to trust. And the pressure to "figure it all out" right now? It's crushing. I understand. That's...

Hi Reader, I wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Over the past few weeks, I've been sharing about Brave Becoming and the live cohort launching in January. Whether you joined, forwarded an email to a friend, or simply took the time to read what I sent, thank you. It means more than you know. I know your inbox has been flooded lately with Black Friday and Christmas deals. (Mine too!) So the fact that you opened this email? That you're still here? I don't take that lightly. I also really...

Hi Reader, Picture this: you’re standing at the edge of a dark forest with a small flashlight in your hand. You can’t see the destination. You can’t even see most of the path. But that little beam of light does show you the next few steps. That’s enough to start walking. That is what aligned action looks like in a life transition. When everything feels uncertain, our instinct is to wait for complete clarity before we move. Once I know where this is going, I’ll act. Once I feel peace, I’ll...

Hi Reader, Have you ever seen a garden that looked full and thriving... until you looked a little closer? Last summer, my daughter planted strawberries and tomatoes in our little garden box. But the tomato plants completely took over. Thick vines spread everywhere, swallowing up all the space. At first it looked lush, even impressive. But when I lifted the leaves, I realized the strawberry plants were completely smothered. They never had a chance to grow because there was simply no room left....

Hi Reader, Ever feel like you’re living inside a shaken-up snow globe? Everything swirling. Nothing clear. Thoughts, fears, emotions all flying in every direction. You want clarity, but it just feels chaotic and disorienting. Transition often feels exactly like that. Not just messy on the outside, but deeply unsettling on the inside. When that happens, we don’t usually respond with wisdom. Instead, we react with our defense mechanisms. Some of us withdraw. Some over-analyze. Some rush ahead,...

Hello Reader, In the middle of a transition and not sure who you are right now? You’re not alone. So many people I talk with recently are navigating major transitions right now: career shifts, relationship changes, divorce and remarriage, aging parents, health changes, empty nesting… It’s a lot. That's exactly why I created the Enneagram Guide to Navigating Change. It helps you understand why this season feels so disruptive for your type... ...and what will help you move through it with...

BRAVE BECOMING IS NOW OPEN! Join now and Save $150 (For a Limited Time Only) GET ACCESS Hello Reader, There’s an ancient Japanese art form called Kintsugi. The name means “golden joinery.” When a piece of pottery breaks, the artisan doesn’t throw it away or try to hide the damage. Instead, they gather up the broken pieces and mend them using lacquer mixed with powdered gold. The cracks aren’t disguised. They’re highlighted. The repaired piece becomes more beautiful, more valuable, and more...
