Ah, my friend... our crazy, beautiful brains. Iโ€™m so glad I know yours up close.

This stuff is exhausting. The constant adapting to the over culture is ex.haust.ing. What youโ€™ve achieved is remarkable and (all that aside) I love you. Xx

As always, you do a wonderful job of showing up authentically and honestly. I'm excited to dive into another round of the Inside Story to be inspired. Thanks for your work.

I remember blogs and I remember Brenรฉ Brown when all she had was a blog before she had a book! All LONG before the TEDTalk and the Oprah era, so I may have seen your interview on Brenรฉโ€™s blog back in the day. I so admire how you e managed to craft your online biz and learning these finely tuned details is even more inspiring, it reminds me to chuck the โ€˜bro marketingโ€™ advice and start doing what feels right and best for me. Hearing how much intuition has been guiding you reminds me to go back to building my own connection to my intuition and learning to trust the whispers in my ear ๐Ÿ˜Šโœจ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ Than you for sharing your full journey here!

Wearing your business/creative life as cosy shawl says it all, such a yummy metaphor, thank you for all you share ๐ŸคŽ

I have been following you for years and taken some of your courses and your down to earth vibe is what has kept me engaged. You always manage to stoke nostalgia for me in a way that makes me pause and smile. You also remind me that it's absolutely fine and totally possible to run a cosy, warm, intimate business. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Still baffles my brain that I started following you almost 17 years ago, you were one of my early blogging crushes! I have no doubt that I was also attracted to you and how you do business because we're on the same ADHD brain wave. And needless to say, 'The Inside Story' and your teachings have completely changed the trajectory of my business. I love what you say on your sales page about TIS being our permission slip to do business *our* way, that is exactly what it is. Thank for being you, my friend, and for sharing your heart so generously. โค๏ธ

I learned about you from Elizabeth D. (of Squam Art Workshops fame) and am sad that I never got to take a class from you there. I love your emails--thereโ€™s such wisdom in them. And your Journal Your Life class? That class turned me into a consistent journaler!

Also, โ€œheart-centered marketingโ€ is much more accurate than โ€œbro marketingโ€.

Thank you for...well...everything!

Thank you for being brave, writing and teaching from the heart, and showing us that there are many ways to work and live. Following the joy, not the numbers and money, is the only way to be authentic and attract like-minded people. I am sorry for the loss you have suffered and I am in awe of your strength and resilience.
