Are you curious why someone would become a life coach? Everyone's path is different. Here's what mine looked like.

From a bachelor's degree in Economics to life coach. Not really a career path that makes immediate sense. Connect with me on LinkedIn and let's talk about career leaps that seem way out of bounds are actually in total alignment with purpose.

Authenticity is not as easy as "just be yourself". It can be hard to pinpoint or nail down. When you experience authenticity at play though, that's undeniable.

Over the last 3 years, I've developed a proven framework of Authenticity that I call "The Muse's Journey". It's for the muse who wants to do it her/his/their own way. It's a starting point of creating a way that works for you. Think of 5 A's.

What's the top reason (or maybe excuse) people have for not practicing self-care? Time, money, energy are usually the top three. You're busy! I get it. And you still need to take care of yourself.

In this episode you'll get my secret to making time for highly efficient self-care. The kind that gives you exactly what you need, sustains you for a while, and motivates you to make time for more. And you'll be better for it!

Do you play with the stars and planets, archetypes and symbols, personalities and psychology?

I've loved Astrology since I was a pre-teen. Secretly reading the horoscopes of my friend's mom's Cosmopolitan magazines. Since then, my interest and knowledge of Astrology has deepened.

It's so much fun and I just want to share that with you here.

Do you ever catch yourself staring at a beautiful person? Like wide-eyed, slack-jawed, stopped in your tracks, in awe and admiration?

There are 3 muses whose beauty elicited this very visceral reaction in me. Thing is, I'm not talking about pretty, pretty. I'm talking about a kind of beauty that transcends conventional (boring) pretty.

I want to share these muses with you. I have a feeling they will inspire you to see the power of your authentic beauty.

• Sweaty boxer mom
• Stank-face guitarist
• Ugly cry soprano

If you want to dive deeper into your authenticity and what's holding you back, book a free discovery call with me. You'll experience transformational coaching and see if it's right for you.

What creative aspirations do you have perched up on a pedestal? How might that be separating you from actually doing the thing? What would it feel like to bring it closer?

I invited Kathleen Yamazaki for a conversation about letting go to grow. She's a muse and friend, fabric artist and mother, bird lover and writer. You'll be inspired by her insights and fall in love with this way of inviting your creativity.
