In my opinion? Everything.

This article is cross-posted from my weekly newsletter, The Sunday Soother, a newsletter about clarity, intention, and useful tips for creating more meaning in your life that goes out every Sunday morning. Subscribe here. I am also a coach who works with sensitive people so they can stop second-guessing, make decisions confidently and live the life they’ve always dreamed of. You can learn more about working with me here.

First, a heads up! The waitlist for my Introduction to Intentional Living Course is now up! By signing up there you’ll be the first to know when the course is open for enrollment in December and get some goodies I’ll be giving just to waitlisters. There’s also all the info about the course over there: modules, testimonials, who the course is for, and lots more.

Happy Sunday, Soothers. I work with a lot of high achievers. A lot of perfectionists. A lot of hard-on-themselves types of people. (Any Enneagram 3s out there? I see you, I am one of you.)

For most of their lives, these clients have gotten to their goals through hard work, determination, grit, relentless pursuits. Late nights, early mornings, after hours, all of their hearts poured into a thing.
