The Quiet Revolution

There is a knowing within us that precedes thought—an inner clarity that speaks before our analytical mind constructs its careful arguments. I first recognized this voice when my external life appeared perfectly aligned with conventional success, yet something felt fundamentally misaligned. While colleagues congratulated me on recent achievements, an unmistakable whisper persisted: This isn't your path.

This inner guidance doesn't arrive as elaborate reasoning. It emerges as immediate recognition—a simple "yes" or "no" that surfaces before we've had time to weigh options or construct justifications. Unlike our calculating mind, this knowing doesn't negotiate or rationalize. It illuminates what's already true for us, whether or not we're prepared to acknowledge it.

We evolve continuously, rarely in predictable patterns. Our work transforms, relationships deepen or dissolve, and various catalysts—welcomed and unwelcome—periodically disrupt familiar patterns. The uncomfortable space between established identity and emerging self creates a particular disorientation, a threshold state where the maps we've relied upon no longer accurately represent the territory.

During these transitions, the pressure to choose the path of least resistance intensifies.

The Life Design Assessment

Oftentimes clients tell me that they know they need a change but can't identify what that is or where to focus their attention and efforts. My Life Design Assessment is the first step in a life transition. Through it you gain clarity and a sense of direction. If you're feeling adrift or ready for a change but are struggling with finding your true north, spend some time with the assessment. It's not meant to be finished in one sitting. It's designed for thoughtfully considering what you truly want in life.

One Last Thing: Musings

Summer is here and this year I'd like to spend more time reading and writing poetry. Any suggestions for poets I should be reading? Right now I'm loving Maya Popa's Substack Poetry Today. Check it out if you're an aspiring poet too!

In gratitude for allowing me to be part of your life.
