Embrace all that is you, out loud and on purpose.
Welcome to a corner of internet where Strong Women are supported, celebrated, and encouraged.
It’s time to pay attention to the the woman behind the curtain.
Strong, successful women tend to appear like there is magic at play - the best ones keep everything running so smoothly and effortlessly that you’re not aware of all the bells, whistles, levers, and buttons they’re operating simultaneously to make it all possible.
It’s a sign of your incredible skill set. The ability to create a vision, anticipate potential issues, and execute like machines, all while still nurturing your team - being with their questions, giving space for do-overs, and asking them about their loved ones.
I know this because I’ve been there.
A chronic hand-raiser, hoarding work tasks because I knew someone else would take twice as long to do a half-assed job I would have to redo anyway.
Making sure everyone had what they needed and then some.
Above and beyond as the norm.
(Fueled by coffee, of course.)
On the outside, we make it look effortless. A well-done performance that doubles as the smoke and mirrors necessary to keep others from knowing the truth: we are working so hard to keep it all going and barely staying above water. But no one sees that side of us. No one sees behind the curtain.
That’s exactly how we want it to be, right? We tell ourselves we can’t let anyone see the toll the mental, physical, and emotional labor is taking for fear of being labeled as weak. Not good enough. Incapable.
And yet we desperately want to be seen.
It’s time to drop the curtain and stop hiding your magic.
Your magic isn’t the smoke and mirrors you entertain the rest of the world with; it’s the gifts you bring to the table just by being you. Your magic is what comes from being more of who you are, and less from proving all that you can do.
You are more than a logistical guru.
A stagehand with wings.
A doer of…everything.
Don’t believe me?
Let me hold the mirror.
You bring you, and I’ll show you everything there is to see.
Your brilliance and strength.
Your power and grace.
Not to get you to believe in magic, but to get you to believe in the magic that is you.
Everything you need is already within you.
Let's take the journey home to find it.
Find her.

Wait. What is coaching?
-
THERAPY involves a past-based conversation that address a wound that needs healing. You’ll hear words like “broken” and “problem” and questions like: “How do you feel?”
COACHING involves present to future-based conversation that addresses the client as a whole and complete human being as is. You’ll hear words like “gap” and “missing” and questions like: “What do you choose?

CONSULTING is advice-giving from someone who is an expert. It promotes an external power source saying: “Here’s how I did it!”
COACHING is trusting the client as the expert as the coach is simply holding up a mirror to reflect that back to them. It promotes an internal power source asking powerful questions, such as: “What’s your next move?”

The International Coach Federation’s (ICF) definition of coaching is…
“…partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.”

The Story Behind Dear Strong Woman
Dear Strong Woman is a safe space for women to be supported and celebrated. Originally a blog I started in honor of my late grandmother, it’s morphed into a community that embraces the notion that we are enough as we are and encourages women to be fully self-expressed, no matter the mess. So whether it’s me supporting you with that or one of the women I highlight on my resources page (more coming soon!), please know that you are not alone and you don’t have to move forward alone either.
