The Unbusy Mom: Because you’re ambitious, you want to grow your business, and you still want a life.

Real life vs. Human Design: Your Human Design wants more tabs open.

<p><b>What do you need to feel more secure about this?</b></p><p>That’s the question I want her asking when she feels stuck.</p><p>Because her brain is naturally going to look around the corner.</p>Do we have enough money?Do I have the right people?Do we actually have time for this?What happens if we add this to the week?<p>That “yes, but have you considered THIS?” thing isn't a problem to get rid of - it’s how she’s designed to make decisions.</p><p>And then we got into her w...

<p><b>What if you're actually supposed to choose what you work on?</b></p><p>Not have every single priority decided three weeks in advance.</p><p>Not follow a perfectly pre-planned schedule.</p><p>Not force yourself to focus on one thing just because somebody told you that's how productive people work.</p><p>We got into this really interesting combination of wanting freedom to choose what feels like the right thing to work on... while still wanting step-by-step plans for how to actually do it.</p><p>So yes, there's structure - just maybe not the kind...

Real life vs. Human Design: Your Human Design needs a dog walker.

<p><b>Someone told her to focus on ONE thing.</b></p><p>Which was probably terrible advice. 😂</p><p>Because she's a Manifesting Generator. She's meant to have a normal work day and a bunch of different things that actually light her up.</p><p>So we got into what happens when you've got a brain that wants lots of things going on... and you're trying to force yourself to focus on one thing because that's what you're “supposed” to do.</p><p>And then the real-life problem underneath all of it?</p><p>The puppy.</p><p>Yep. 😂</p><p><b>Co...

<p><b>She needed to work less</b> - which sounds obvious when you're talking about a Projector.</p><p>Except she also needs to delegate a LOT to make that actually possible.</p><p>And then we got REALLY specific about her work style. ‘Cause she wants structure. <br/><br/>Same place, same time. Pre-chosen tasks at specific times.</p><p>But once she's inside the project? She wants to just see what her brain pulls out as the next step.</p><p>Very structured about when she works - very flexible about what happens next.</p><p><b>Com...

The Real Problem with Your Balance… Isn't Your Business

The Real Problem with Your Balance… Isn't Your Business

<p>What if you're actually really good at business?</p><p>Like, you could solve the team problem. Figure out the webinar. Fix the conversion issue. Have the hard conversation.</p><p>….IF somebody would just give you the problems one at a time.</p><p>Because that's the real issue.</p><p>It's not that you don't know how to solve business problems. <br/><br/>It's that you've got three things needing you at once, notifications going off everywhere, a kid getting sick, the dog barking, and absolutely ZERO margin to think.</p><p>So every new problem feels lik...

Real life vs. human design: She was trying to fit her business around her kids

<p>What if you aren't supposed to work all day? </p><p>Seriously. 😂</p><p>Because we spend SO much time trying to make ourselves be consistent like little productivity machines.</p><p>But what if that's actually the problem??</p><p>This reading got into what happens when you STOP trying to force yourself into somebody else's version of a “normal” workday.</p><p><b>Same coaching question - completely different answer once we put her Human Design underneath it.</b></p><p><b>Come listen to this one →</b></p><p>If you're an entrepreneur and a mom trying to...

Inside the chart: What if you need structure AND freedom?

<p>Okay, this one was interesting. Because she clearly needed some structure.</p><p>But the more we talked about how she actually works, the more I started seeing… the problem is the KIND of structure she's been trying to create.</p><p>You know that thing where you make a beautiful plan and then immediately want to do something completely different?</p><p>Yeah. We talked about that. 😂</p><p><b>This is what happens when you take a coaching question and run it through the actual person asking it. </b></p><p><b>Come listen to me pick this a...

Real life vs. human design: Your toddler doesn't care about your work block

<p>What if you don't actually need more time?</p><p>Because this woman had a pretty specific question about how to fit everything in. And I kept thinking….</p><p>Do we actually NEED to fit all this in??</p><p>Or, should we look at how she's USING her energy in the first place??</p><p>This one got into work, rest, capacity, and why “just use the time better” isn't always the answer.</p><p><b>Because the advice I'd give one woman isn't necessarily the advice I'd give another woman with the exact same problem - and th...

Real life vs. human design: She kept circling her top 3… and stalling out

<p>She knew what her top three were.</p><p>She had the list. She'd circled the things. Matter of fact, she'd stared at them WAY too long.</p><p>And somehow… she was still stuck.</p><p>So I started asking a few different questions.</p><p>Because when you've already tried the obvious productivity advice and you're STILL sitting there thinking, “Okay, but what the heck do I actually do??”...</p><p>I want to know what's underneath that. 😂</p><p><b>That's where these HD redos get fun.
