"and what is next for you Laura?"
I finished a coaching course recently, and was asked "and what is next for you Laura?"
And without thinking I replied with something like this:
"In this season of my life of nurturing and growing, I am going to continue to follow my intuition."
Creative coaches and their “top” advice
If you’re on more than one email list from creative coaches and mentors, you've heard everyone’s “top” advice.
A coach and mentor cannot do it for you, so invest when you're ready to put time in and make change.
And yes! That is my top piece of advice, too. I see this all the time with clients.
But that “top” advice really isn’t helpful, now is it? You know that.
That’s why today I want to share with you my second best piece of advice.
Always have an (intuitive and holistic) plan.
That all illusive confidence, and why I don’t always have it
I am totally confident in my choices – I still have to regularly assess what confidence means to me, and if I’m on the right path for me and my family, but that comes from a place of excitement and love, not fear and negativity. I know when I work with my clients that I help them get to that point, it’s why I love my job and love working with amazing women. Confidence in all that – it’s there in abundance.
Learning how to forget yourself and live in the moment
Sometimes, we get so caught up in our own heads that we forget to simply be in the moment. But here's the deal: life is like a crazy, beautiful, messy painting, and if we're always stuck in our heads, we'll miss out on all those amazing brushstrokes.
Turning Dreams into Reality: Overcoming Self-Doubt and Taking Action
there is nothing wrong with what you're doing right now if it's working for you. With sitting in a place of comfort and ease. If it's working for you, fabulous darling.
But the best thing you can possibly do for yourself now is to ask yourself the question I think Tara Mohr phrases so beautifully:
"Am I being more loyal to my fears or to my dreams?"
If you’re getting really stuck about what you want to do, here are five powerful steps that might help you to find your way:
Embracing the Journey: The Beauty of Patience in Achieving Success
In a world that often races against the clock, it's vital to remember that life's most meaningful achievements and profound joys are rarely rushed. The path to success is not a sprint but a journey where every step counts. Embrace the process, cultivate balance, and celebrate the small victories along the way. True success is found in the harmony of a life well-lived, one that enriches not only your career but your very essence. So, take your time, savour the moments, and watch as your unique journey unfolds into a masterpiece of fulfilment and purpose.
Boosting Your Business Impetus When Things Slow Down
You know that anything meaningful worth building takes time and nurturing, but impatience sets in and you can't help but feel "why can't I GET RESULTS?!"
So, how can you reignite your motivation and enthusiasm for your business and create results for the current phase and beyond? Here are some top ideas to consider, and to almost certainly generate results:
Navigating Through the Noise: Finding Your Own Path
One of the hardest things we face when we are trying to work out important decisions, whether it’s about how we're meant to parent a vulnerable human, how we're meant to develop our business, or why we're doing what we're doing, is the endless presence of ALL THE NOISE.
Finding balance and productivity in business: a personal journey
In the fast-paced world of entrepreneurship, it's easy to fall into the trap of overextending ourselves, believing that the more we do, the more successful we'll be. However, sometimes it takes a moment of clarity, often with the help of an insightful coach, to realise that doing less can actually make us more productive and content.
