❊ What my coach said that I didn’t want to hear (but needed to)

Published about 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hey there, Reader,

I was on a call with one of my peer coaches (because yes, coaches need coaches too), just talking through a few things that had been sitting heavy in my mind.

I wasn’t looking for some big revelation, just trying to get unstuck, but then she said, “You might be playing the victim in this triangle.”

And my brain went: Dang. You’re right.

Here’s why that landed so hard: I’d been quietly waiting to be invited in, waiting for someone else to see my value. But the moment she said that, I realized, I don’t need an invitation. I get to bring my own chair to the table. To walk in knowing why I matter and what I bring.

Maybe you’ve felt this too, like you’re on the outside looking in, convinced it’s someone else’s fault you weren’t included. But what if that moment isn’t rejection… it’s redirection? A reminder to shift from victim to creator.

No big finish here. Just something that’s been sitting with me in case it lands for you too.

Lost your power? Lost your voice? Here’s your invitation to understand why, get clear, and make your move.

Grab your chair Reader, we’re going to the party.

P.S. Writing this made me laugh because my kitchen table is literally covered in Legos right now. Maybe that’s the real metaphor: build the table you want to sit at.

Hey Reader, quick question: What’s the one thing in December that drains you the fastest, the thing you wish you could step back from, even briefly, so you could breathe again? If your shoulders dropped or you exhaled when you thought of it… that matters. I hear this all month from moms who say: “I’m holding it all together, but I feel lost inside.” And when we sit with that for a moment, something softer usually rises to the surface: “I know I need to feel more tuned in to myself and my...

Hey there Reader, I used to white-knuckle my way through the holidays, saying yes to everything, running on fumes, and wondering why I couldn't remember any of it. Not anymore.
