Is Your Executive Membership Falling Short?
The world seems to be in a precarious place, and I believe wholeheartedly that the course correction that we need to see right now will be led by women (and fueled by some incredible male allies). Do you agree?
As part of the Limitless Leader community, you’re undoubtedly committed to being a heard, valued, respected, and energized agent of change, with your family, peers, subordinates, and with your leadership while empowering others to do the same.
In addition to being lit up by what’s possible, sometimes leaning into our highest sense of contribution and change, can be challenging, frustrating, and downright exhausting! Where our passion meets our expertise is our Olympics, our legacy, and what the world
so desperately needs to see right now.
Like the work put in by Olympians, the thousands of hours and days leading up to the culmination of our life’s work, sometimes in solitude, and often with no fanfare or recognition, you keep going.
Just as Olympians dream of...

If you can tell by the sheer horror on my face (see this blog article's photo) hearing from the amazing Emma Tommory what was expected of me prior to opening the Women of Silicon Valley 2019 conference this past May, I've definitely been afraid to pivot, to serve at a higher level and have the impact my heart was telling me to go after.
I imagine you’re already successful, but you’re feeling like there is more (impact, joy, contribution…), it may be time to pivot. Whether it’s an internal pivot in your company or your current career, or an external pivot toward something totally different, this typically takes a great deal of personal influence.
Here are 3 tips to get started with an even more influential mindset, so you can start taking more action towards what your heart is telling you:
- Believe in yourself, your ideas, your worth, and your contribution.
If you don’t believe you...

Do you ever feel like you are working EXTREMELY hard and...
1.) not making the progress you want and deserve
2.) not feeling acknowledged
3.) not able to sustain the pace
If so, you are 100% not alone.
In an effort to disrupt this cycle and make progress towards you achieving your potential in a holistic and sustainable way, we are going to kick off International Women's Day a little early. Let’s all be inspired and learn from the amazing stories, impact and courage from women past and present, so we can be our best and rise, together.
For a moment, step into the shoes of Wilma Rudolph who was one of 21 children (yes, 21!) in her family, and born 1940 in St. Bethlehem, TN. Because Wilma was born premature and inflicted with many childhood illnesses (including polio), she was told by her doctor that she would never walk again.

Happy New Year 2019 everyone! Here's wishing you beautiful moments, treasured memories, and all the blessings a heart can know.
Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, "Write it on your heart that everyday is the best day of the year." I want to pass along some easy steps to help you make progress everyday towards the goals and ambitions you want and deserve.
World-class athletes and business professionals do not achieve and maintain greatness alone, and neither can you. Accountability is one way you can set yourself up for consistent progress on your march towards your Olympics.
So how do you choose the right peer, friend, or colleague as an accountability buddy?
Well, they should be:
- More experienced than you (ideally)
- Have your best interests at heart
- Not in competition with you in any way
- Not threatened by you ...

I hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing Thanksgiving break with family and friends.
I'm 100% blown away by how amazing YOU already are!
Here’s what I’m hearing though over and over again from my local and global workshop attendees... as well as those applying for my monthly subscription:
Despite all the amazing things they are doing... “I feel mediocre.”
I hear you.
I’ve felt that way too.
If we work extra hard, we feel like we are mediocre with our loved ones and friends. If we commit to our family, our career ambitions might slow down. Here’s the worst: We work extra hard at both, and still feel like we are coming up short:(.
I'd like to share three valuable tips to STOP feeling mediocre and get onto feeling (as Jen Sincero of You are a Badass so eloquently puts it) like your badass self at work AND at home.

It’s also important to take care of some housekeeping early on. Here are four important things to discuss prior to getting started with an accountability buddy:
- Be explicit about what is important to you, what you are committed to doing, and what help you are hoping for. If you ask someone and...
How To Develop the Confidence to Live Your Purpose
Do you ever feel purposeless?
We know finding clarity and purpose is difficult, so we’re approaching it from a different angle today: how you can develop the courageous mindset you need to develop purpose, because we believe that anyone can have world-class purpose.
I was recently interviewed by Geoff Woods, Vice President of The ONE Thing podcast and wanted to take a minute to personally share it with you.
In this episode you will learn...
- What creates the gap between high achievers and everyone else.
- How you can use positive affirmation to develop a more purposeful mindset.
- Why you need to practice being purposeful (and how to practice deliberately).
- Why you need to align yourself with an expert and put an accountability structure in place.
- How you can commit to progress (instead of perfection).
