Through the ups and downs of my life, one constant has been the magic that happens because of a conversation with a trusted friend, colleague, or even with a total stranger over a cup of coffee. Looking back, these caffeinated moments have created a dot-to-dot, shaping me into who I am. Because of this, I have made conversations over coffee a tenet of my coaching. Speaker seminars and large audience workshops with inspirational thought leaders and coaches can be exhilarating and cause your energy to shift in a positive direction. During these events, you can be so motivated that you can walk on hot coals (literally) but if you do not possess that heightened “I can do anything’ mentality and positive energy authentically, it fades. It becomes almost impossible to maintain post workshop.
