This past week felt like a week of connecting the dots. So much of what I’m seeing among my clients is inspiring and makes me love what I do more and more. And this is motivating me to remind all of you to keep pushing forward.
This week I spoke to people who…
have been looking for work for half a year
are trying to decide if their marriage is over
are doing everything medically possible to get through a rough diagnosis
have written something beautiful and want to get it in front of people
struggle with crippling anxiety but want to make summer memorable for their kids
know deeply that they are great at their work, but seem to have forgotten their “why”
Despite the difficulties and trials so many are facing, each person I spoke to this past week has massive courage. Perhaps they’ve lost their confidence, but they demonstrate strength in the face of adversity and most of the time what they need from me is a reminder of their value, their incredible talent, and/or that they are not alone.
The dots all come together around the idea of being seen.
Everyone wants to be seen. They want the opportunity to tell their story and set their own boundaries. And more than anything, most of them are finding joy in the beautiful small things and making way for more laughter.
And day after day, they offer me the crazy privilege of walking with them as their coach. It’s nuts that this is my job and I really do love it more each day.
