I am learning to ‘row my way’ through life - where I show up to anything I do like I show up to a rowing race - fully committed, all-in and trusting myself that I am ready for whatever comes my way, can handle any obstacle, and finish feeling strong and grateful.
This is what's missing for a lot of us - the all-in commitment to make ^%$^ happen - your dreams, your goals, or even what you want to do next week!
Recently, I was feeling all the feels after looking at my business under a microscope and deciding where I wanted it to go for 2023 and the next 3 years!!
These days, I am learning to show up to anything I do like I show up to a rowing race - fully committed, all-in and trusting myself that I am ready for whatever comes my way, can handle any obstacle, and finish feeling strong and grateful.
I wrote this a few days after rowing in this boat at Head of the Charles, the largest rowing regatta in the world (5000 boats, 500k spectators!).

This applies to whatever I do - staying present and focused on myself so I can show up.
Fully resourced and ready
Excited about what I’m doing no matter what the challenges or headwinds are
Planning, prepping and doing what it takes to get to these 2 above states :)
It wasn’t always this way - when I burned out of Google all those years ago, I had no idea how to ‘row my way through life’ even though I was a 6x national champion in the sport of rowing. Sure, I could pull off some great athletic feats, but did I feel as good out of a boat?
Hell NO!
When you learn to peel back the layers that keep you stuck and …
Stop overthinking things
Doubting or second-guessing yourself
Thinking or doing things that feel empowering
…you realize that there are incredible pathways for you to shine your unique brilliance and feel really fulfilled while you do it…without the overwhelm!
When you lean into ways that support you to show up as all-in, excited, and vibrant - you are on to something!
That’s where I come in. I help corporate leaders get out of overwhelm so they rise to their next level of leadership …AND thrive in life again.
If you want some help in this area getting to where you want to be in 1,2, or even 3 years, direct message me “ready” and I will follow up with next steps. Because no one deserves to live without all cylinders firing.
