Your Inner Critic
“You’re not good enough.” “There is no way you could do that.” “You can’t do as well as someone else, so it’s not even worth doing.” Does any of the above sound familiar?

Poking Holes in Perfectionism
Did you know that some people don’t recognize they suffer from perfectionism? I was coaching a client who is a very Type-A personality.

Looks can be deceiving…and so can your goals.
Looks can be deceiving….so can our ideas–especially when we’re passionate about a project, plan, etc. Honestly, it can be totally exhausting to plan everything, envision how it will be during and after, and then BOOM.

What do freezing temps and introverts have in common?
This past week in Utah has been COLD. It got down to freezing temperature. What do people who are cold do?
