ideas

So you’ve been in this pattern for a while. Too long really. Its sort of a rut, No it is a rut. I’ve been there…. Had those days when you’re tired of living the same story. Moments when you know its time for a change. A good change. Here’s where you get two options… 1. Keep […]

Why you need to own your intentions

Intention

Many years ago, back when my kids were littlies, an outing to meet a few friends at the park could be the highlight of my week. After a morning of playdough and Duplo I’d be craving the company of some over 20ies and ‘park dates’ for me were more than a chance to get out of […]

How to turn your desires, dreams and longings into action and reality

Dreams quote

I’m a dreamer. I believe we’re all dreamers.  That we’re all continually imagining something wonderful we’d like to do, have or experience in our future. Often our dreams arrive subtly.  Moments in our day we linger over.  Times when we pause to imagine ourselves in an experience. Think of the thoughts you’ve had while thumbing […]

How A Theme Word Can Design Your Best Year Ever

January

Lately I’ve been experiencing sneaky moments of panic whenever I see a goal setting article. Panic that I’m not keeping up, that time is getting away and I’m missing the boat on setting my goals for the year. This unnecessary panic subsides, when I tune into my own personal process and declaration to sit with […]

How I found opportunity when no one wanted to hire me

Balance

I’m about to share my ‘little secret’.  A few months back I wanted to quit my own biz. At the time I was incredibly disengaged with my work.  I’d developed a not-so-good habit of comparing myself to all the “successful” coaches in my new home town, convincing myself there was no room for me.

July 14, 2017 By Karen Main Leave a Comment

“A problem shared is a problem halved,” a friends Mum once said to me. This was many years ago, I was barely out of my teens and struggling with the messiness of growing up. I sat sobbing at her kitchen table, pouring my heart out quite literally as tears dripped all over the floral tablecloth. […]

What to do when life is not what you imagined

Waiting

Its been six incredible months since we made our ‘big move’ north.  Since then I’ve experienced the most amazing moments with my family. We’ve swam, walked and danced along the beach more times than I can count. We’ve woken to strange bird calls and hosted an incredible array of wildlife (curlews and roos in the backyard […]
