Which would you prefer to be, Open or Strong?

The human experience is a balance between both.

Think about the body…

“If you really care about starting a movement, have the courage to follow and show others how to folllow.”

~ Derek Sivers

Intention often brings us to places where we are invited to exist in tension.

When the going gets tough,

The cool thing about self-discovery and forging your own path is that

even though you venture down a path that is very much your own...

As we ran in the cold and wet, we engaged in Minnesota’s two favorite pastimes...

1) talking about weather

2) asking each other, “Hey, do you know this person?”

The April snow had a slightly burnt hue as it crunched under our feet…

Sometimes the conversation bears the most profound gifts.

Sometimes it’s the spaces in the conversation when you hear the Mississippi interjecting its truth.

What’s on the other side of quitting the things that no longer serve, that no longer bring joy?

Words are powerful.

When we crack,

we think we are breaking.

For some, the challenge is in the work...

For others, the challenge is in the rest...

Refrain from taking things personally, especially yourself.

Introduce people to themselves…

to their own capacity.

What if we approached every second of our life as if we were in the middle of a boomerang?

You need to plug in it 🔌

No matter how strong, capable, effective, prepared, planned you are...

“Find out who you are and do it on purpose” ~ Dolly P.

If there is one thing we each can do to inspire the world…

You.

People are their best coaches…

Plants have it figured out...they lean and grow towards the sun....

Lean in everyone...

I pester with purpose,

I excitedly invite,

I repeatedly remind,

You get to set the parameters…
