In today’s episode, we are covering a topic that I have been practicing for years- dressing to create what you want at work. Back before I discovered coaching, I used to show up for work in my home office in sweatpants.

Our beliefs about ourselves and self image are reflected in the way we show up- and that includes our wardrobe. Tune in to today’s episode to learn more about what your s ..read more

There are completely rational reasons for why this happens, but there are also many reasons why we’re able to overcome the doubt and move forward. When you don’t honor your vision for yourself, you rob yourself of the unique reason why you’re on this planet.  Tune in to today’s episode to learn all about why we struggle when we don’t have evidence for making our dreams reality ..read more
