I’m a coach. I don’t tell you what to do. I help people ‘uncover’ their Blueprint. They don’t need me to tell them what to do. It’s already inside them. But sometimes, thanks to all the noise and clutter in our heads, it helps to have someone else help us see it clearly. Do you…

Does your coach need to be an expert in your field? Here’s something to consider: Experts might not always know what’s best for us in our unique circumstances. We all have a zillion other things going on in our lives. Different: -> Skills -> Family -> Values -> Friends -> Passions -> Upbringing -> Geographies…

Are you living someone else’s script for your life? Here is another example of the golden path fallacy. Sound familiar…? Graduate high school, go to college, then get a job.

What does it really mean to lead with a coaching mindset? I think of it as believing in every team member’s inherent potential. Here’s what I mean: It’s not about giving answers.

Have you ever read something and thought, wow, that’s powerful? Happened to me one morning (it happens to me a lot, actually).

Ever wonder why it’s so hard to change certain behaviors, even when you desperately want to? When we’re going through transitions in life or career, we often set out to change our actions. But sometimes, no matter how hard we try, something seems to hold us back. That ‘something’ is often our underlying beliefs. Our…

Ever wondered how you can stay resilient when faced with challenges? Mental rehearsal isn’t just for athletes. It’s a powerful tool that prepares us for planned scenarios and the unexpected twists life throws our way. By envisioning various outcomes, we ready ourselves for whatever comes. The Blueprint Process is similar. It’s like mentally rehearsing what…

Feeling stuck as you face life’s transitions? Often, what holds us back isn’t just the external changes. It’s our internal assumptions and beliefs. When I’ve felt stuck, it was usually because my assumptions didn’t align with reality. Recognizing this was the first step toward meaningful change. The Blueprint Process dives deep into the core beliefs…

Have you ever caught yourself thinking you’ve “made it”? You’re at the pinnacle? I have. Believing we’ve reached the pinnacle is a pitfall. It’s tempting to think we’ve arrived. This mindset limits your potential. By thinking you’ve made it: You miss out on opportunities for personal growth. You shortchange not only yourself but also the…

Why your routines might be stifling your growth. (And what you can do about it). Routines and habits can be powerful tools to help us grow.
