Last week we talked about discovering hobbies and activities you enjoy. (In case you missed the discussion, I included a link to last week’s story below!)

If any of your hobbies ended up including walking, spending time outside, or meditating, I have a great update in store for you!

In the meantime, what did you discover about yourself and what you find fun this past week?

So tell me a little about yourself! What do you like to do? How do you spend your free time?

I used to dread those types of questions. What do I like to do? I have no idea! How do I spend my free time? Eating popcorn and watching online TV or scrolling on social media.

How can I be expected to have hobbies when my job takes all of my energy? When I'm not working, I'm recovering from work and either checking out mentally or gearing up for my next workday. Who has time or energy for hobbies!?

But on some level, I knew that someone did have that time or energy, or they wouldn't ask questions like that. And I also knew that I wanted to be that someone.

I just had no idea how to get from A to B.

Coming this week! How do you spend your free time?

if you’re feeling too burnt out from your corporate job to begin to imagine picking up a hobby on top of all your work, keep an eye out for my blog this week with tips on how to incorporate more fun into your life. (And how to ignore the influencers who tell you that you’ll be happy if you wake up at 4:30am, drink their green juice, walk 10 miles, and meditate for an hour every day. If that’s what it takes, I’m fine being boring and unhappy!)

Can’t wait to share my very non-influencer tips with you!

Have a business idea, but aren't sure how to get started? Have questions about launching a business, but too nervous to ask? 😳

I've been hearing from you all that, as much as you're benefitting from coaching, you are also seeking a judgement-free space to ask your questions about embarking on your own venture. Many of you are already clear on your entrepreneurial dreams, but simply don't know where to begin! ☁️

Over the next couple of weeks, I will be rolling out consulting services for clients with practical questions about launching their own business. While I strongly recommend receiving coaching while working through the entrepreneurial process, non-coaching clients will also be welcome to book one-off or multiple consulting sessions. 🗓

Watch this space, and keep brainstorming ideas for your new business! 🚀

The results are in! We'll be discussing Range by David Epstein for our first Self-Leadership Bookclub. 📚

Our first meeting is February 11 at 1pm PT (4pm ET). You can sign-up to join in on the discussion via the link in bio. ✍️

I’m looking forward to our first gathering as a community of creative professionals who are challenging the status quo of how work gets done. This is your opportunity to grow your network and (most importantly) make new friends! We'll get to engage in discussions that will challenge us to think bigger about what success may look like for each of us. 🧐

If you'd like to join but the date of our first session doesn't work for you, send a message with dates and times that tend to work better. ⏰

And, if you'll be there, send over any topics you'd like to discuss in advance! 🗣
