The Embodied Edge Wanting more doesn’t make you ungrateful. It makes you honest. Thanksgiving has a way of bringing that tension to the surface, doesn't it? If you're anything like the women I know, you have a lot to be grateful for: Family. Friends. Health. Your career. The life you've worked so hard to create. And—if you're anything like many of the women I know— there’s also something deeper calling you. A sense that there’s a new version of you ready to emerge. A new chapter of your life...

The Embodied Edge I hear this a lot lately: "I know what to do. I’m just not doing it." Like the woman who tells her team it's safe to fail—yet holds herself back from taking her own risks. Or the leader who knows she can handle a major pivot at work—yet fears losing her autonomy. Here’s what I've learned: Knowing is surface-level. Doing is embodied. Your mind read books and stacks knowledge. Your body remembers past pain, failure, rejection, embarrassment… and it protects you by creating...

The Embodied Edge I don't know about you, but I've been on a quest to have more fun. As the straight-A oldest child, I grew up thinking life was supposed to be serious. It was so extreme that I remember sitting through Toy Story at the movie theaters stifling laughter because "I was too mature to laugh." ⏩ Fast forward to today. When I tune into my Future Self - she's not serious at all! She's laughing, meeting people, and having the time of her life. Current self? Let's just say... I'm...

The Embodied Edge How have you been feeling this week? We had a Super Full Moon 🌕 on Wednesday, and I definitely felt it. I’ve heard everything from “best sleep ever” to “couldn’t sleep at all.” Whatever’s showing up for you, honor your body. The feminine rests to honor her body — not as a reward. On Thursday, I joined a small group to discuss recognizing and rising above limiting beliefs. I shared what makes my work different: our beliefs don’t just live in the mind. They get stored in the...

The Embodied Edge Someone this week asked me to describe my perfect soul clients. I said, “They’re leaders who’ve read the books. They’re incredibly self-aware. They know they have negative thought patterns - they just don’t know what to do about them.” 🍥 One client was taught by a former therapist to tell her negative thoughts to F*** off. 🍥 Others are taught to yell at their saboteur, then take the action they’re avoiding. Those ideas work if your main goal is to push through...

The Embodied Edge The term “playing small” gets thrown around a lot. Conceptually, it makes sense - doing less than the highest you’re capable of. But pinpointing it for yourself is tricky. I like to say it’s when fear gets wrapped in logic. Your excuses sound reasonable… but they’re really fear in disguise. As a Human Design Projector-type, I can easily spot this in others. But it’s much harder to see in myself. Thankfully, I had coffee with someone this week who pointed out not one but two...

The Embodied Edge A client once told me she was fascinated by how openly I talk about my failures. That wasn’t always me. As a recovering Type-A perfectionist, I used to hide anything that looked like a mistake. The moment that really hit home was after my first baby. We were living with my in-laws while our house was being built, and I felt uncomfortably exposed as I fumbled my way through the lessons of new motherhood. Fast forward to now: I've shared publicly about a bad investment I made....

The Embodied Edge I just got back from the Women’s Leadership Conference in Green Bay, WI. It was a few incredible days of connecting, growing, and learning. As it wrapped up, I looked around the room and realized something: a conference - no matter how inspired you feel when you leave - isn’t what creates a leader. Leaders get activated in powerful rooms, yes. But they get created after they leave. Leaders aren’t made in grand moments. They’re forged in the in-between: How they respond after...

The Embodied Edge Earlier this summer, I helped a former client celebrate the grand opening of her new office. 🍾 We started working together almost a year before. In one of our first Future Self meditations, her guides showed her in a bright, spacious office. She’d completely forgotten about that vision by the time she felt the pull to move. When I saw that detail in her notes, I got chills. Yesterday, I went to a Fire Cider–making event for another former client. 🔥 The same thing happened:...
