How to deal with the overwhelm and outrage over SCOTUS's overturn of Roe v. Wade
If you're feeling overwhelmed, mystified, outraged, confused, devastated, or otherwise emotionally triggered over the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, watch this NOW.
In the video, Kelly Sheets and Amy Birks share practical tools and resources to help women and supporters of women's rights to turn their fear and rage into power and action. We question the idea that meeting this challenging situation with resistance and angry confrontations is the only way to move forward from here, and offer a more effective, powerful alternative that WILL create the change we're looking for, and much more quickly and efficiently.
Operating from FOMO is dis-empowering you … here is what to do about it
Operating from FOMO is dis-empowering you … here is what to do about it
FOMO - Fear Of Missing Out - is the age old marketing tool used to manipulate us into buying things we don’t need or want. Amy Birks and I have both trained with coaches who have taught us this very technique which is rampant in the coaching world. We have also fallen prey to it and sadly, we both used it in the past when we were trying to work out how to build our businesses - not something either of us are proud of. BUT with experimentation and exploration of true power, we know another way.
If you are in a marketing, sales, or leadership role this exploration is worth listening to so YOU can examine is you are using it and where you are buying into it - and ultimately how to STOP wasting your energy and be more powerful.
You CAN stop hustling ... here's how to work and live without the stress of the hustle habits
Amy Birks and I are having another conversation that I think you will appreciate. Hustle is this overrated, exhausting way of practicing life and business that leaves us NOT fulfilled … so why live and work that way when you can do it another way?
We discuss other ways of operating here in this episode of What’s the Deal With … Hustle?
I wasn’t really being kind … an exploration of our intentions and the power they have
How can this be easy? Getting unstuck with business decisions.
If you are so busy with all of the thoughts in your mind, where is the space for creativity and real connection with others?

“My attention is my greatest asset.” - I realized that after a meditation many years ago. What I put my attention on is what I create. If I can’t control my attention I am powerless. If I can’t get quiet I can’t control my attention.
The longevity of real power and good leadership for businesses and entrepreneurs
Real power inspires. It radiates out so it lights up others potential. Leaders who are operating on this type of power that I explore with clients, make their work way easier. When you inspire others to show up and be more powerful themselves, they take care of business. You stop hustling, you stop trying so hard to manage all the pieces, you stop feeling fear.
What's the Deal With ... VALUE
Episode #1 - What's the Deal With... VALUE
In this episode, we're exploring the idea of "value". How do we determine what's valuable? And what are the consequences of giving things too MUCH value in our lives and businesses? If you're an entrepreneur, you're constantly making decisions about where to put your focus - and those decisions get made based on what and how you're valuing the options in front of you.
What would happen if you stop “trying” to get things right
Most of us don't realize how draining the energy of "trying" is to our systems. We spend SO much time trying to figure things out, get them right, be a better person, etc. I made this video to give some insights to how to let that go and what else is possible when we do. It is one of the best insights I ever experimented with.
Creating space and changing our environment is so vital to changing our mind
If you aren't celebrating, your potential for fulfillment is much less.
People who have a high achieving mindset often pass over their accomplishments without much attention and move right on to the next thing on the list, no matter how big the accomplishment was. And this habit pushes fulfillment further away. Here is a way to get curious about this and how to step closer to feeling fulfilled.
A review of what curiosity is and "What if you weren't afraid of getting it wrong?"
Impatience, dolphins and creative magic
Patience = Presence. If I am impatient I am totally missing what is happening right now - I am in the past or in the future but not here. If I am not present with you, if I am thinking of you last time I saw you, who I expect you to be or wishing you were different, I am actually disconnected from you and only relating with my projection of you, not who you are right now. That is creating distance between us.
Leadership is 100% a creative process
The fastest way to start feeling more fulfilled
If you feel stuck, CELEBRATE … here’s why and 2 ways to get unstuck
I bet you are stuck in some area of your life because it’s a natural course of events in the human experience – it´s not something to judge as a defect of yourself. In fact – you can celebrate it!
Here’s why: When you get stuck, you have a ton of potential that wants to be tapped – more joy, love, money, success, fulfillment, ideas – BUT your subconscious mind is scared so it stops up the flow and you start to feel stuck.
What happens when you CHOOSE fun and playfulness as primary intentions?
What happens when you CHOOSE fun and playfulness as primary intentions this week even when you suspect your “supposed” to be serious? 😜 Oh the fun police! That little voice in your head that suggests that you will only be valued, what you say will only be heard, your clients will only pay you… if you are SERIOUS.
Letting go of my mind is THE greatest creative success
What if everything I believe is wrong?
This question mixed with being curious can change things up for you - it always has for me! Often people don’t realize how many beliefs their minds hold on to and navigate through moment to moment. The energy we spend on judging based on these beliefs often diminishes our power and potential. Examining the beliefs we have about ourselves, the world, others, how things need to be, etc can be incredibly altering and freeing.
