Outgrowing Who You Used To Be

Lately, things in my work have felt...quiet.

Not the peaceful kind—more like the kind that makes your chest tighten and your brain start spiraling.

Leads have dried up. Inquiries that seemed like a sure thing have gone silent.

The momentum I was riding has slowed down without explanation.

My natural reflex is to jump into problem-solving mode. Rethink the brand. Rewrite the copy. Tinker until something starts moving again.

But beneath that urge to fix, I can feel something else taking shape.

A quiet but certain truth that something in me—and in my work—is ready to shift.

Every expansion I’ve experienced in my life has started like this.

Not with clarity or confidence, but with disruption.

Something internal starts to stretch and pull against the life I’ve built. And if I’m not paying attention, I miss the signal.

Because the signal doesn’t sound like inspiration.

It sounds like frustration, dullness, or an anxiousness I can’t shake.

And the mistake I’ve made in the past is thinking it’s an external problem to solve.

So I push harder and do more, hoping to outrun the discomfort.

But your life can never outgrow your way of being. (Read that again).

So if you’re sensing something new is trying to emerge, you won’t get there by pushing—you’ll get there by becoming.

This is the work of inner evolution.

And it’s the only way I know to create work, leadership, and impact that actually feels congruent.

And in that congruency, we find deeper fulfillment, and greater joy.

If any part of this landed with you—if you’re sensing that you’ve outgrown a version of yourself and don’t know what’s next—this is the moment to pay attention.

This is my favorite work to do inside of The Deepening—a one-day intensive for leaders, visionaries, and high-performers.

It's for those who are ready to create greater alignment between their inner world and their next evolution of your leadership and life.

We’ll identify the patterns that are no longer serving you.

We’ll reconnect to the voice within you that already knows. And together, we’ll map a clear and grounded path forward.

One day. Held with intention. And designed to change everything.

Let me know.

As always, I'm rooting for you. We're in this together.
