I cried after saying goodbye to a client the other day.
Our five months together concluded with one powerful message: She finally saw evidence of her own magic and power to forge her own authentic path toward financial freedom.
What a powerful moment to realize you've not only impacted someone's life and future so profoundly but to realize they, too, had an amazing impact on you as well.
This is the power of coaching.
And, for me, it's always about the Power of YOU.
For the past several years, I've been focused on business development and The Brave YES Mindset™ which I still love and adore.
Maybe it's the fact that 2025 is turning out to be a lot, but I'm feeling a strong need for ... a reinvention.
I'm asking a lot of who I am, what am I here for, what's my purpose right now ... and I don't think I'm alone.
After a lot of journaling, card pulls and howling at the moon, I've decided I don't have to have any of the answers yet.
But, what I can do is start writing toward the direction that feels most alive for me right now -- the direction that has been calling me and calling me in many different ways for the past six months.
And that, for me, is what I've dubbed The Power of S L O W.
Slow, soft living.
Slow, soft marketing.
Slow, soft being.
And, that means ... less.
Less business acumen, more vulnerability.
Less isolation, more relationship building.
Less me, more we.
Less hustle, more intention.
Less capitalism, more creativity.
Less frenzied rushing, more slow and soft living.
Less more, more more and more ... less.
In my latest blog post I’m sharing my S L O W marketing tech stack because the companies we are investing in right now need to bring big impact, or get deleted.

“Are you actively practicing generosity and vulnerability in order to make the connections between you and others clear, open, available, durable? Generosity here means giving of what you have without strings or expectations attached. Vulnerability means showing your needs.”
