Fall in my world always means- heading south, hunting, canning season is almost done and hiking season is in full swing. I love the external gratification and am motivated by the internal satisfaction and freedom to live a blessed life and to share that blessing with others...

Remaining "pliable" is my new skill. I had made plans... four other people involved... and now I have to change them... warranty work on my truck... 15 years ago this would have put me in a tailspin.... after all the years of work... I just sat down and poured a coffee... guess it was worth all the work!

This is my win! Why? Because I am recovering from so stress related health issues. Many years of stress and trauma led to physical health... now it is under control and I am back to hiking. Goal is to summit Kilimanjaro for a second time!

This space isn’t about starting over. It’s about sharpening what’s already strong. You’re here because you’ve done the work. You’ve led. You’ve held space. You’ve walked through fire—and you’ve come out with wisdom. This classroom is designed to honor that. Inside, you’ll find tools to refine your voice, deepen your impact, and reconnect with the clarity that brought you here in the first place. You’ll also find space to reflect, ask questions, and connect with other women who lead with integrity and purpose. This isn’t a beginner’s circle. It’s a gathering of women who are ready to lead at a higher level. And if you feel called to coach—to guide others through transformation with a trauma-informed lens—then explore the Master Instructor Training. It’s not just a program. It’s a platform for women who are ready to teach, lead, and build something that lasts.

Give yourself credit for the steps you have already taken. No mountain is summited in a single stride! Even after years of personal development... today I realized I need to work on pride... I have a hard time accepting help because I feel that I should do it on my own.... that is pride... and it stops the blessings... Do you still do personal development?
