  • During an intense group workout at Red Rocks Amphitheater last week I realized the power of coaching and community. I know without a doubt that if I had been there on my own, I would have given up much sooner, and wouldn't have worked as hard.

    Included in today's episode are the insights I recorded on the drive home from the Red Rocks workout. The recording quality during these parts is subpar, but the energy level was high!

    Some key benefits of coaching and being part of a group include:

    investment (I'm committed to the work because I invested $)accountability (showing up)consistency (improving by regularly doing the work)comparison (motivating, but also need to focus on ourselves)leadership (an expert guide)community (encouragement from others)

    While my insights were gained during a group fitness class, they apply to career and job search coaching as well. If you're in a job search and want the benefits of coaching, let's chat! As of July 24th, I have 3 openings for 1:1 coaching beginning in August. Here's a LINK to schedule a discovery call.

    Also, if you're in the Denver metro area and want to join the Thursday morning summer workouts at Red Rocks with Missi, you can sign up HERE.

This episode is a tribute to Ryder's memory and a message of hope for anyone facing similar heart-wrenching decisions. Tune in for a narrative that underscores the importance of resilience, the power of moving through life's toughest moments, and the unexpected wisdom found in a beloved children's tale.

  • This week's episode of Her Next Chapters tackles the ever-present imposter syndrome that plagues many moms. Host Christina Kohl shares her own experience of feeling completely unqualified as a parent when bringing her newborn home from the hospital.

    The episode explores the concept of imposter syndrome and how it manifests in motherhood, despite the lack of formal training. From figuring out breastfeeding to navigating potty training and teenage years, moms are constantly in "learn on the job" mode.

    However, this constant challenge results in incredible skills. The episode highlights the valuable transferable skills developed through motherhood:

    Problem-solvingAdaptabilityCreative solutionsResilienceResourcefulnessDecision-makingTime management

    The message is empowering: Moms who feel like imposters in other areas of life should remember their journey in motherhood. They've faced countless challenges with no training, yet figured it out. These skills are a superpower to be harnessed and applied to any future endeavor.

    The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to recognize their growth as moms and to leverage their "improviser muscles" to conquer any new challenge that comes their way.

  • As my youngest son Alex is about to graduate high school, I reflect upon my silent, and unrecognized graduation as a parent in our local school district. With 3 kids, this is a role I've held for 21 years! In this episode, I reflect on the endings and beginnings that come with graduation, not only for our children, but also for us as moms. The spotlight is on the graduate, as it well should be, but a quiet reflection on the support we've provided them over the 13 years (K-12) to get to this moment is warranted.

    And as the graduates prepare for their next chapter, it's also a time for us as moms to contemplate what we want in our next chapter.

  • The topic for today's episode was inspired by my daughter who recently stumbled her way through a phone call with our veterinarian's office when we needed our dog's vaccination record emailed in time for her visit to the dog groomer. While her side of the call was a bit awkward, she got the result she needed.

    That phone call reminded me that whenever we step out of our comfort zone, it can feel awkward and messy at first. But, the more we practice showing up in new ways, the easier it becomes. And I'm sure the next time my daughter needs to call the vet, or anyone else, to ask for what she needs, it will be easier. I'd like to revise the old saying "practice makes perfect" to "practice makes easier." Instead of striving for perfection, let's strive to show up, even if imperfectly.

    A common situation that causes nervousness and anxiety, resulting in some awkward conversation is interviewing for a job. If it's been a few years, those first couple of interviews can be a little rough! Like everything else, practice makes easier and mock interviews are a great way to gear up for the real thing. If you're interested in getting interview practice with an HR insider, hit me up! It's one of my favorite services I provide my clients.
