Anxiety & Planning

I don’t know what your experience with anxiety looks, sounds, or feels like. I only know mine.

In my experience, anxiety feels like paralyzing worry. It feels a little like an incomplete run-on sentence. As if my mind takes in the data “this expensive item broke, I don’t know how to fix it, I don’t know how much it costs to replace, I don’t know how long it will take to fix.”

Then it runs into a fixed mindset belief, often a belief born of trauma. “Bad things always happen to me.” This disempowers me.

For me, anxiety doesnt have ONE solution, it has many. I have two products that really help me manage anxiety proactively and reactively.

I also find that addressing my root concerns through a process helps a great deal. There are so many resources to uncover the causes of anxiety and create new beliefs and actions.

I have also found Churchill’s words to hit the nail on the head.

Let our advance worry become advance thinking and planning.

Planning is a POWERFUL combatant to anxiety.

For example, An appliance broke, I am going to research the cost for replacement & repair, I will checkout you tube videos to help, I’ll make a decision and a PLAN to move forward.

Instead of feeling frustrated, angry or stuck that “bad things happen to me.” I can choose action that moves forward,

If you have anxiety and are not yet skilled at planning, time-management and goal setting, my course Cultivate Clarity just might be right for you.

Birth is a very special time in your life, but it's one day out of the entire childbearing year.

You are meant to have a positive experience. You can navigate all the challenges and concerns during pregnancy, birth and beyond with grace and ease.

I support you with personalized coaching, pregnancy health, childbirth education, breastfeeding/formula feeding preparation as well as preparing for postpartum and even returning to work!

I am passionate about planners. I like the stickers, I love a good precise v5 pen, and I simply enjoy the act of putting my plans to paper.

More than that I love how potential is realized through planning. If planning were intuitive, we’d all be reaching our goals, rolling in the dough and doing what we love to do.

Planning is a skill that you can learn. It’s a skill I learned as a naive college kid, at maybe the best job I’ve ever had. I worked in a retail store, learned these skills, taught them to clients and changed my life forever.

In Cultivate Clarity, I will take you through:

Building a values based foundation to your plans,
Determining your planning blueprint by clarifying your roles, desires & mission,
How to set your goals & achieve them,
The nuts and bolts of Monthly, Weekly and Daily planning,
Extra tips for using your planner effectively,
BONUS live weekly group coaching for those who sign up by October 18.

How it works:
