Mindfulness Meets Real Life — life coaching

Like many of you, I have many different things vying for my attention during the waking hours! Too many people, phones, and shiny things all trying to entice me. It's quite the conundrum that modern technology makes our lives simpler and more complicated at the same time!              OY! How can we weed out the distractions and actually accomplish the things that are important? If you want to know how to stay focused in this crazy, busy world; and actually get stuff done, then read on. One thing you might not know about me is...

"Procrastination is the thief of time" ~Charles Dickens It's sad to admit this, but once (many years ago)...I had a favorite pair of pants.  You know the kind I'm talking about. They were chinos, with a lot of pockets and they fit me perfectly. They were the kind of pants you reached for all the time -- like a second skin.  Well, one time the button fell off, and although it was annoying, I didn't sew it back on.

 Make no mistake~ Sometimes working with a Life Coach can be a deeply transformational process!  People who come to me are ready to make a change, even though they might not know exactly what that change is.  It is so INspiring to me to see these dramatic shifts, and I am grateful for the opportunity to hold space as people explore their innermost thoughts and deepest desires. Let me pause to say, that I am profoundly humbled by this work that I do.  A recent client gave me permission to share her story, in hopes that it might inspire at...
