You think I became a content coach and a content creator because it came naturally to me? Girl! No way.

I did my time in the awkward adolescent years where I tried to be invisible. I dimmed my voice for years. And I used to joke about being the one millennial who avoided technology.

But my desire to build my business was stronger than my fear of rejection so here I am.

And over the years, I’ve learned that great edits don’t make up for constantly questioning yourself. Believe me, if you’re recording a video and you don’t feel good enough about yourself, no amount of edits is going to fix that.

I felt the fear did it anyways year after year and now I teach others what I learned.

I’m a professional hype woman.

If you are running a business the two skills that will determine everything are your tolerance for rejection and your relationship with criticism. Not your editing skills. Not your hook writing. Not your knowledge of the algorithm. Your ability to keep going when something does not land the way you hoped.

The business owners I work with are not struggling because they lack expertise. They are struggling because somewhere along the way they decided that their expertise was not interesting enough, polished enough, or important enough to share publicly. And so they wait. And wait. And the waiting becomes a habit that is harder to break than the fear ever was.

Record what you are working on. Share what matters to you. Stop getting in your own way.

That’s your strategy.

You already have everything you need. You just need to let people see it.

If you want support building the habit and working through the resistance — a working session is where we start. Link in bio.

I thought Toastmasters was a big city thing, but I just learned that Walla Walla has their own chapter.

Yesterday I went to my first ever Toastmasters meeting. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was the right fit for me, although I appreciated the structure accompanied by the warmth and welcome.

But after talking with one of the members who took some extra time in explaining the ins and outs of the club, I’m fairly certain this is where I need to be.

I shared my goals with Pam. I told her about my social media and visibility coaching, and it turns out, she did something very similar during her career. I said I have dreams about presenting keynotes on my journey from food stamps to homeowner, or how to navigate the process of loss and grief, how to turn your inner critic into your inner bestie, or how to design a life you love.

She told me the best place to start was presentation mastery. There’s so much I don’t know, but I’m excited to explore a proven structure that will get me to my goals.

Walla Walla continues to surprise me. This chapter of Toastmasters has been operating for 89 years.

The pressure you are putting on yourself is not making you better. And it is definitely not getting you more clients.

Something is always better than nothing.

When you are just starting to create content you are not trying to go viral. You are training your brain to look for stories. That is the whole job in phase one.

Post a photo once a week. Write three sentences about what you are doing. going viral in a short amount of time is not the only goal we’re celebrating. In my opinion, consistency, and pushing yourself is worth celebrating. It might not be a shiny or flashy, but that’s the work that gets you where you want to go.

It takes years to get from beginner to polished talking reels with professional audio quality. And the people whose content you are comparing yours to have had been at it for years.

Stop comparing your beginning to someone else’s year ten.

After years of coaching people through this, I learned that the problem is never the tech. It is rarely the hook. It is the fact that you do not feel good enough yet or you are scared of being judged.

And a list of hooks you saved eight months ago is not going to fix that.

This clip is from my interview on Kate Butler’s show, Where All Things Are Possible, a show I flew to New Jersey to appear on as part of our Believe Beyond book press tour. Thank you Kate for creating a space where these conversations happen.

If you are ready to clear some of that resistance, a working session is the best first step.

I always kind of knew… Probably as far back as when I was 16 or 17 years old. I’m just so grateful to live in a time and place where so many people have already come out. So many people have already sacrificed for my right to love who I want to love.

if anything, I’m going to bring more color and sparkle this month!

Relatability will always outperform professionalism. Warmth will always outperform polish. And a real story will always outperform a perfectly produced campaign.

We are living in an era where people are starving for realness. When someone makes you feel truly understood, when their content makes you think “they get exactly what my life looks like,” that connection is worth more than any slick edit or trending audio ever could be.

This clip is from my interview on Kate Butler’s show, Where All Things Are Possible. I flew to the East Coast to appear as part of the press tour for our International Bestselling book, Believe Beyond. Thank you Kate for the platform and the invitation.

I coach people to stop being scared to post online through keynotes, coaching, and content strategy.

If you are ready to clear your resistance to posting and share your journey as your most real and relatable self, send me a message or book a working session through the link below.

I didn’t even realize I was making work so much harder by being so frazzled and intense about it all the time. The frazzled came from always trying to be as efficient as possible, prioritizing max productivity above all else. All this time, I had no idea how much that was costing me.

Ever since the start of the year, I’ve been experimenting with this idea of making my work as enjoyable as possible. Removing the pressure I put on myself and trusting that I do a good job without the pressure.

I’m not convinced that pressure makes diamonds all the time. Sometimes it keeps us stuck and we don’t even realize it.

Here’s your reminder to slow down, to notice your thoughts, and to be the voice that reminds you you’re doing a great job!

I’m pretty sure if I just focus on what I want and appreciate all the beauty and ease and love and options all around me, I’m pretty sure my life will just unfold beautifully and I’ll be just fine.

how many times have I heard words like that in a podcast but it never really sunk in and this morning it just hit me differently.

Parenting is the ultimate thankless job but I see you! The sacrifices, the late nights, the crying, the trying to be better and regulate your nervous system while you’re being screamed at, the times you made a delicious healthy meal that your kid refused to eat, the times they argue about brushing your teeth and you wonder why today is any different than every day.

This one’s to the parents and caregivers who are pouring into the next generation and healing themselves in the process.

I dare you to bring a gift for the parent. Next time you go to a kids birthday party. See what happens.
