The decision you keep circling


Hey Reader,

The pumpkin spice is flowing and sweaters are making their way to the front of the closet...fall is here 🍂

And with it comes that end-of-year feeling. The calendar starts filling up, 2027 is suddenly in view, and the decisions we’ve been putting off start tapping us on the shoulder.

Is there one thing in your business (or life) you keep coming back to? A decision you’ve been “thinking about” for weeks. An offer you’re not sure about. A goal that feels fuzzy every time you think about it.

Most of us don’t need more information. We need space to think it through, and someone asking good questions along the way.

That’s exactly what I’ve been loving lately. A few weeks ago, a past client asked if I could support her with one decision before the end of the year. It worked so well that I opened a few weekly spots to my past clients, and three of them were booked quickly.

It’s called Voxer Week. You bring the one thing you want clarity on, and we work through it together over Voxer for five days. There are no calls. You reply on your own time, and on Friday you get a one-page recap with your plan.

What surprised me most is how much happens between messages. When you get to sleep on it, your real answer shows up, and it’s usually not your first one.

I have two weeks left this fall, Oct 19 and Nov 16, and I wanted to offer them to you. If something has been feeling heavier than it should, I’d love to help you work it out.

Hey Reader, I asked on Instagram recently how people were feeling about Q4. The answer: too much to do, not enough time. I get it. That feeling is real. We've piled a lot onto our plates and filled every open space. Going, going, going, and at the end of the day it still doesn't feel like enough got done, even though you were busy all day. Sure, we've overcommitted. But there's something a little deeper going on too, something I end up getting to with almost every client eventually. We all...

Hey Reader, Here's a little joke I often make: you can always tell who's an entrepreneur by how many URLs they own 🤣 Not because we ever use them all. Because we can't stop having ideas. A course we might build one day. A product we might make. A weird little side thing we're pretty sure could work. If you've got a domain sitting somewhere collecting dust for a "someday" idea, you already know exactly what I mean. Here's the thing about being a high-achieving woman with a lot of ideas: the...

Hey Reader, Happy September 1st. However you're spending today, there's a good chance some part of you is already feeling the pull to get moving on something. Here's the real-life math: you've got about 12 weeks of real "getting things done" runway before Thanksgiving flips the switch and attention turns toward family, holidays, and slowing down. After that, it's a different season entirely. So instead of a September to-do list, I'd offer one question: If you only let yourself make real...
