As I sit down to reflect on the past year, I’m always amazed at how fast time goes.Even being intentional in the daily to-dos, time still does the proverbial ‘fly.’ I started the year strong, as many of us do. But once the allure of joining a January kick-off group stalled out, so did my […] The post Welcome to the Year 2025 appeared first on Donita Fowler, Life Coach for Business Owners ..read more

My 100. Earlier this week marked my 100th therapy session with my amazing therapist, Elizabeth. She’s seen me at my worst, and she’s now starting to see me at my best. It’s taken me 100 sessions over three and a half years to get here. “Am I finished?” you might ask. Nope, I’ll never truly […] The post My 100 appeared first on Donita Fowler, Life Coach for Business Owners ..read more

I’ve had over 125 therapy sessions. I’ve read hundreds of books on mental health.I’ve spent hundreds of hours listening to podcasts and interviews about how our brain works, and the effects of trauma. You’d think by now I’d have it all figured out, right? But if there’s one thing I’ve learned through all of this, […] The post World Mental Health Day appeared first on Donita Fowler, Life Coach for Business Owners ..read more

In our fast-paced instant-gratification world, stress has become an almost inevitable part of daily routine in life and in business. While acute stress can sometimes be beneficial, helping us to respond to immediate challenges (you know, tigers chasing us and stuff), long-term low-level stress (which is where a lot of business owners live) —often called chronic stress—can have a profound and long term impact on our health and well-being. Chronic stress is the kind that lingers, often unnoticed, subtly influencing our bodies over extended periods. Unlike the short bursts of stress we experienc ..read more

Motivation: Why It’s Bullshit and What You Should Focus on Instead. We’ve all heard the phrase, “I’m just not motivated.” As a coach, I hear it all of the time. It’s a convenient excuse for not going to the gym, skipping that important task, or avoiding a challenging project. But what if I told you that motivation is actually bullshit? Yes, you heard me right. The whole idea that you need to feel motivated to get things done is just not true. If you are relying on motivation to show up to your party, it never arrives. And, it is holding you back from doing the things.  So you might ask ..read more

When someone reaches out to me for coaching, we go through a discovery phase to find out if we are a fit together. Over the years, the same questions come up for me and so I thought I would round them up and bring them to you in one place. The conversation usually goes something like this… ___________________________ PC: prosepctive client CD: coach Donita PC: So, what is your coaching philosophy?

In the last few months, I have taken a deep dive into the emotional toil that stress has on our bodies, particularly as business owners, entrepreneurs, service providers. Whatever camp you fall in, stress is real. And I have countless stories, including my own, where stress has manifested itself in an ugly way in our body’s. No one is going to die, but there are consequences of stress on our body. Learning how to regulate emotions has a major impact on how our body’s handle stress.

I Feel Invisible

I feel invisible. I know I’m not, but that’s how I feel. Well, on the feelings wheel, I actually feel ignored. But invisible is pretty darn close. Let’s start at the beginning. In January of this year, I found a lump on my breast. I wasn’t really worried, I have had lumps before. I actually had a large one removed in 2016 and it was benign (non-cancerous) so I kind of knew the process.  I went to my doctor the last week of January, and that’s really where the story begins. Grab a tea and settle in….. My family doctor of 15 years sent me for an ultrasound, and mammogram. That appointment ..read more
