I believe in the power of magical and radical transformations. Not the kind where you end up a completely different version of yourself than where you started. But the kind where you don’t recognize yourself because you end up the very best version of yourself imaginable.
That's what happened when Kate approached me last year curious and anxious about exploring and learning photography.
A registration at a local Momtographie class got the ball rolling and soon after she approached me with a fire, determination, and passion to transform her learning into a new career path.
Now a year later Kate has quit her 'safe' job in education, is about to move to a new state, and is mothering the most adorable 1 year old while growing and expanding her photography business.
A few weeks ago on the Recapture Self Podcast you heard me sit down with my coach Joanna as we did a vulnerable session together.
Today the tables turn as I coach Kate -- we spend just under an hour in this inspiring session chatting about her journey and exploring the fears and goals she's working on in the months ahead.
What would it mean if we took a magnifying glass to your life as a whole.
And created an experience where life starts happening FOR you instead of happening TO you?
I only work with a VERY select number of 1:1 clients during the year. If you think one of those coaching spots is meant for you and you want to chat about your goals, dreams, and radical transformations -- send me a note. I'd love to talk more.

Today I’m chatting with Megan Flatt a business growth strategist committed to showing Mama CEOs that it is possible to build a thriving business while staying present for the other things that matter in our lives (like our little roommates.)

Megan is a planning and calendar expert. If you don’t own a business or don’t ever have aspirations of owning one you will still get so much value out of the chat today. Megan and Beryl have been business BFFs for a long while - they even dabbled in some co-teaching projects and joint retreats back in 2014.
Today Megan and Beryl connect over so many topics including

Ever wondering what it would be like to work with a coach or mentor on reaching your creative dreams and goals?
Curious about what coaching is, and how they support and guide your mental blocks along the way?
Working with coaches and mentors has been the most valuable investment I’ve made in myself and business -- it’s been a constant in my growth both personal and professional.
This 2 part series will allow you to see a slice of how coaching can lead to deeper understanding of yourself and how the world sees you.
In Part I - I will be coached and it's one of the most raw pieces of myself I've ever decided to share online. You'll get a peek into a private coaching session with my coach Joanna Dane Rothman (who has been a past guest on the show!)
This vulnerable session is one of the most accurate accounts of coaching I could think to gift you and will show you that underneath the facades of the internet we are all still human. We all face inner demons and struggles in our life with worth, fear, and self-doubt.
During part two of this series (releasing in late December 2016) I'll turn the table and be the coach. You'll see me in action as I sit down for a session with one of my 2016 clients supporting her 2017 goals and dreams.
Did you have any ah has or moments of clarity listening to this episode? Curious about working with me in the coming year? My coaching slots for the first half of 2017 are half full - perhaps one of the final spots is meant just for you. Reach out to me HERE and we'll schedule a chat to see if we're a good fit.
