I was recently watching a Lavendaire video and she said (quoting Laurie Buchanan), “Whatever we are not changing, we are choosing.”***
(Side note: My algorithm sends me deep down the self-reflection, productivity, personal development rabbit hole because I watch so many videos about it…even though I rarely implement. Mine also includes interior design and DIY, ADHD in women, mom life/child development, makeup tutorials and styling/thrifting videos, and for a long while, personal finance for women. What’s yours like? If you’re a multi-passionate like me, this probably isn’t so surprising. 😉)
That quote around personal choice resonates so much with my core value of intentionality, but it also triggers all my guilt and shame when I’m “unfocused”.
As if it’s a character flaw. That I’m simply not trying hard enough or caring deeply enough.
When I know logically, that can’t be true.
But showing up and sitting down in front of a computer and magically producing a thriving business doesn’t work for most of us.
(Hello, multi-passionates, overthinkers, neurodivergents, mamas/caregivers…honestly, most humans in general.)
I know I’ve personally recruited reinforcements in my own business time and time again. Swaps, advisors, accountability buddies, and the peer mentorship group that directly inspired Peer Pods.
That’s why with my 1:1 consulting (strategy, ongoing retainer, live calls, and done-for-you-actual-words-on-the-page), and in the intimate group setting of Peer Pods, I prioritize process over planning.
Because something always gets in the way of the best laid plans.
Weather, illness, kids, pets, emotions, the YouTube vortex, a swirling & whirling ADHD brain, a powerful combo of all of the above…
So instead of dwelling on it, we take confident, meaningful action, together. Through empathetic accountability and thought partnership.
We get to the heart of everything that you’ve been ruminating on for far too long. (Or jump into that lightbulb flash you got 2 minutes before so we can unpack it together.)
I offer time and space and gentle structure. For you and your vision, with me by your side and in your corner.
