Saw this clip of Paul McCartney today mentioning that the actor Peter Ustinov used to like being interviewed because it helped him figure out what he was thinking.

This is one of the somehow unexpected but also essentially purposeful benefts of coaching conversations - to be asked to look beneath the surface and see what the light lands on and make sense of it and convert that to words and then hear yourself say things you didn’t realise were true but were hiding in plain site just waiting for the right questions from someone who you enjoy the process with.

I love exploring ideas that help people say deeply true things and that matter … and discover them like a long lost friend.

It can open up so much and help you and your audience access what you are here to share.

Imagine capturing that raw essence!

How romantic - a thunderstorm!! Except also … keeping dry fail. 💦

If you’re doing your own social media it can feel like you deserve a huge pat on the back for effort right? I mean it takes time and energy to come up with what to share and to put it out there. And if it isn’t working to get clients that’s ok - it’s not commonly effective on its own as a conversion strategy (unless youre advertising). Posts are for building connection and trust.

Sales come from additional aligned systems. It’s all part of a marketing ecosystem that you can build more easily once you have your foundations in place. A way to grow an email list of people genuinely wanting to learn more about your perspective and offers, a way to introduce them more intimately to your work, and a way to make it easy and compelling for them to sign up to projects with you … this is what will help you be free to do more of what you love - not more work but better projects and more income.

I’m available for a no pressure conversation to see how I can help and if we’re a good fit to take next steps for your business.

Word of mouth can become a comfortable prison. Keeps you busy, but not necessarily with the work that lights you up.

The people who’d really get what you’re about? They’re out there looking, but they’re finding whoever shows up first, not necessarily who’s best.

Sometimes I wonder if the most thoughtful practitioners are the hardest to find, right when people need them most.

Visibility can be fun done in a way that suits you. Let’s get visible!

Spent last night at sunset explaining to Mahathir the chicken why she can't just make her own rules about bedtime. She carried on doing her own thing like she would go when she was ready - a chook who knows her own mind. Feels familiar. I guess we quiet rebels prefer to do what feels right for us than follow arbitrary rules.

If you don’t quite know what to say or you aren’t showing up like you think you could, or you aren’t still developing clarity around your offers and pricing and systems, or you are yet to create a way to inspire potential dream clients into your orbit, don’t let it stop you from taking the next small step … these things don’t happen overnight but they happen better by doing something and then doing something else and keep doing more things. You’ll learn and grow and connect and get there.

Can I see any women designing fire resilient homes that are built to honour this planet? I want nothing more than for you to be showing up so your talent and energy can be chanelles into fulfilling this huge need.

The Cochrane family has called the Otways home for more than four decades. Even after fires destroyed their property, they do not plan to move.
