3 New Podcast Episodes + Diving in Deep |
Hi Reader, We are inundated with content every day. Uplifting content, empty content, manipulative content, transformative content... One thing I've noticed: Content created from a place of inspiration, expressive desire, and heartfelt authenticity just hits differently. This kind of content isn't built just because the creator wants something from you, it's created because the idea, emotion, or message of it wants to flow through. When I read, listen to, or watch content created from this place, I feel it. It feels like a lovingly crafted message handwritten on parchment, delicately rolled, slipped into an ornate bottle, and dropped with vulnerably brave faith into the sea. When you create and share from this place, you hold the vision that one day the bottle will be discovered along a rocky shore by someone who delights in it. You daydream about some unsuspecting human stumbling upon the bottle, unrolling the parchment, devouring the contents, and being so powerfully touched by your creation that they are never the same again. You dream, you hope, but you don't need the bottle to be discovered every time. You create for the dream, yes. But more than that, you create to feel the enlivening spark of a soul-fueled creative act. To know that you've birthed something in the world that you love dearly and are proud of, regardless of how it is received. It is from this place that I have delightfully crafted the second season of my podcast, Abundantly Curious. I've given myself the creative freedom to express whatever wants to come through, and it's usually about being curious, explorative, and experimental in these areas:
The first 3 episodes are now live. Details below! May one of them speak to you in delightfully unexpected ways. ​
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Resources This week's reclamation resources are dedicated to the most popular Season 1 episodes of Abundantly Curious.

Clayton shares his processes for learning and becoming great at new things. ​ This Week's Encore Sometimes we just need to dive into the deep end. No dipping a toe in to test the waters. No baby steps. No slowly but surely. But a full cannonball dive into the depths. Why? Because sometimes diving in is the only way to strip yourself of your baggage.
Sometimes… the deep end pattern disrupt is the way to get free of them and move forward. For me, this has looked like: Experiment: Going from barely meditating for 5 minutes to an advanced weeklong retreat where I meditated 6-8 hours a DAY. Result: I meditated for an hour a day for a month afterwards and still meditate 2-6 hours a week, almost 2 years later. Experiment: Recently, doing a 9-day cleanse that was 100% fruit and veggies. No salt, no oil, no nuts, no nothing but plants. Result: I established a significantly healthier baseline for eating and have been choosing much healthier options post-cleanse. It’s easier than ever to choose nutritious food with this kickstart. Experiment: Leaving my job cold turkey when I realized how serious I was about starting my own business, even though I had no idea what it would be. Result: I got much needed recovery from hustle culture, plus the absolute space I needed to get clarity on what biz I would launch. 30 days after clarity, my biz was launched. 60 days after launch, I had my first $10k month. All of these outcomes would have taken me significantly longer to “build up to” if I hadn’t dove in deep. In fact, if I hadn’t fully committed in the way I did, they may have never happened. The deep end isn’t always the answer. But when it is, it’s worth going all in. Where might it be the answer for you? Ready to dive in? Book a complimentary discovery call to explore coaching. ​ ​ |

The Power of Asking, and then Asking Again Hi Reader, I’ve lost my ability to speak this week. My voice is nothing but a croaky whisper. It turns out, Texas is “the allergen capital of the world,” and she has made her mark on me. Interestingly, losing my ability to speak is helping me practice using my voice. I woke up yesterday really feeling my body’s response and went into full self-care mode. I gave myself permission to be completely unproductive. I rescheduled my client sessions and 2...
Inside-Out Living + Playful Experimentation Hi Reader, I'm done with boxes and limitations, and I'm inviting you to join me in a powerful experiment. I’ve been talking about being done with boxes and limitations for years. Now, I've deepened into my doneness so much that I've initiated a radical experiment in self-trust, following my inner compass, and breaking the rules. The big questions I have in this experiment are: Can I create what I want in life while doing what I want in life? What is...
Garden vs. Factory Approach + Life as Art Hi Reader, I'm deep in experimentation around what it would be like to prioritize my vision-driven creations over the constant knocking of my to-do list. I'll share more on that next week, along with an announcement about the reintroduction of one of my favorite creations (🎙️ hint, hint). For now, I'll offer this gentle reminder. In a world filled with the expectation of immediate outcomes, perfection, and never-ending productivity, I’m here to remind...
