I'm popping in with some big news! I'm giving myself a gift – a sabbatical!
From now until February 2025, there won't be any new Enough Already podcast episodes. But this isn't just a vacation; it's an intentional space to rethink how I can serve my clients better and tap into new ideas, like the book I want to write and my evolving business strategy.
A quote by Richard Rohr inspired me: 'Doing must be balanced out by not doing.'
I'm embracing this balance to bring my best to my clients, even though it comes with nerves around finances. I believe this sabbatical will be a huge investment in myself and my work.
While I'm pausing the podcast and new client work, I'm still passionate about helping mid-career professionals build standout consulting and coaching brands. My team will share highlights from past episodes on YouTube and LinkedIn, so if we're not connected yet, please do so! You can also sign up for my client waitlist on my website and get access to free brand messaging trainings.
If you've ever thought about taking a sabbatical or have tips to share, I'd love to hear from you. Email me or connect on LinkedIn.
Thanks for listening, and I look forward to returning in February 2025!

My last episode of the Enough Already podcast was all about dealing with the fears that stand in the way of our consulting or coaching potential. To quickly recap, in the last episode, I shared why it’s totally normal to experience fear and how fears serve you. I also shared my definition of fear as I shared my definition of fear which is, “An unpleasant emotion that alerts us to a threat to getting our normal human needs met.”
And then I went to see Inside Out 2 – the latest Pixar movie about the world of middle schooler Riley and the new emotions she has been experiencing since hitting puberty.
If you haven’t seen this movie yet, it’s great.
And it has completely transformed my understanding that it’s not fear that is standing in our way but anxiety.
