You Have to Know What You Want

You’re not alone but you might be underconnected. This article explores what that means, how it affects your life, and why investing in your relationships is a form of real, lasting wealth.
Letting Go to Move Forward
Sometimes moving forward means something hard: letting go of relationships that no longer serve our growth. Last week, we talked about the courage it takes to build authentic connection. This week, I’m inviting you to explore the other side of that courage; setting boundaries and making space for new energy by choosing who fuels your dreams, not waters them down.
Why Real Connection Requires Courage
Creating connection is deeply rewarding—but it’s not always easy. This week, I’m sharing what happened when I took a risk to bring people together, and what I learned about joy, criticism, and why the work of connection is always worth it.
The Hidden Power of Relationships in Your Success
We often push harder or plan longer when stuck, but what if the real key is connection? This week, I explore how leaning into relationships can open doors, shift thinking, and make progress easier. Sometimes, the next right step is less about doing more and more about who you invite in.

The relationships in your life don’t just support you, they open your world. When uncertainty hits, leaning into trusted connections can unlock new possibilities and fresh energy. Here’s why social capital matters and how it can help you move forward without carrying the weight alone.
A Better Question Than “What’s Next?”
Sometimes “what’s next?” creates more pressure than clarity. In this week’s article, I explore why softer, more revealing questions can help you reconnect with yourself—and make decisions you’ll feel proud of.
Who Are You After the Achievement?
When I finally took the RV trip I dreamed of as a kid, I didn’t expect to feel… different. I had outgrown the dream but in doing it, I reconnected with a version of myself I hadn’t seen in years. If you’ve reached a goal and still feel like something’s missing, this one’s for you.
Invisible Growth
Even before the renovations, the retreat, and this RV trip, the real growth was happening where no one could see it. This is a story about invisible work, growing capacity, and what matters most when things don’t go as planned.
The Myth of Perfect Timing
We love the idea of perfect timing. But often, “waiting for the right moment” is fear pretending to be wisdom. What if clarity doesn’t come before the leap—but because of it?

Curiosity as Strategy
Curiosity isn’t just a personality trait—it’s a lever.
When life feels stuck or overwhelming, curiosity can be the quiet force that opens doors, shifts perspective, and gets things moving again. This article explores how asking better questions, seeing from new angles, and staying open to what you don’t yet know can transform not just your mindset, but your results.
Nothing’s Wrong, But Something’s Off
Lately, I’ve been hearing a familiar theme: “I should be grateful… but something feels off.”

And naming that doesn’t make you selfish—it makes you honest. What does it means to hold that tension—gratitude in one hand, longing in the other—and how we start listening to what that ache is trying to tell us?
