LIFE COACHING

When I was a kid, we lived in an old farmhouse where the slats of the upstairs banister were just big enough to fit an eight year old’s head. Seeing that I was eight, and my brother was six we would periodically stick our skulls between the slats. Harder to pop ourselves out than it was to get in, however a shimmy here, a wiggle there, and our craniums would be freed. Once free, we’d be off to stick our fingers in ancient sockets

One day, when I was nine, my brother and I were on our rotation doing “weird things in the house” and I stuck my head in the banister. This time, I got stuck. No shimmying or wiggling would release my thick skull from between those century old slats. My brother, almost seven, cried. I had grown, and the old fun, familiar activity that once filled idle time no longer worked for me. I needed help getting out, and I would need to find something else to do. Hearing my brother’s panicked cries, my mom came in with a stick of butter, greased up my head, and I was free. I soon Your head is stuck in a metaphorical banister. You’ve been sticking your head in it for a long time, and up until now, it fit. You’ve outgrown the banister, and not only do you need help getting out, you need to figure out what else you can do with that beautiful skull of yours. How long are you willing to stay there with your head stuck between the slats? It’s time for you to change your perspective and either free yourself from where you are stuck or find a new way to make it work for you. I work with individuals to get free, and make moves into what’s next. It’s a process of self-discovery and change. Think of me as mom with a stick of butter in hand.
