One of my coaching friends asked me to sum up 2024 in a word, and set my intention for 2025 in a word, so I’ll start with that framing rather than the more stream-of-consciousness format from the last few year-in-review posts. 2024: Full For more context on why 2024 felt full, here’s what I did […]

Becoming more trauma-aware
My professional development investment for 2024 was completing the Trauma-Informed Coaching Certification program (TICC) with Thomas Hübl and Amy Elizabeth Fox, after hearing both of them multiple times on the Coaches Rising podcast. While I was familiar with many of the concepts shared in the program (Immunity to Change, Internal Family Systems (covered in chapter […]
2023 Year in Review – I wrote a book!
Another year is wrapping up, and that means it’s time for another year in review post where I look back at the highlights of the last year, and set my intention for the year ahead. My 2023 intention was to connect with courage and vulnerability, which I applied across every aspect of my life. I […]
2022 Year in Review
Another year is in the books, and, as usual, I want to take the opportunity to reflect on 2022, and set my intention for 2023. In last year’s reflection, I added self-care as a priority for myself along with family and coaching, and that went surprisingly well. I managed my commitments better, as I realized […]
2021 Year in Review
2021 was quite a year. Let’s start this review post by listing off a few significant events in my priority areas of family and coaching: Our second child was born in the spring.

2020 Year in Review

2019 Year in Review
I ended my 2018 Year in Review with the intention that for 2019, “I will stay focused on my priorities of my family and my coaching, and will figure out the rest from there within the remaining capacity that I have.” And that turned out to be a good summary of how I spent my […]
2018 Year in Review
Instead of my normal rumination on what I’ve learned this past year, let’s change it up, and do a picture-based post in mostly chronological order. Those of you that follow me on Instagram have seen most of these, but it’s a nice way to hit the highlights of the year. I’m still in the same […]
2017 Year in Review
Let’s call this the Year of New Beginnings. I went into 2017 with two priorities: 1) to deepen my relationship 2) to deepen my practice of coaching Those priorities helped me stay focused on what was important to me in 2017, despite many competing obligations. 1) I met Tanya in November 2016, and we clicked […]
2016 Year in Review
After I pushed my limits physically and mentally last year, this year was a much quieter year – let’s call it the Year of Recovery. The big event for me personally in 2016 was that I had a traumatic bike crash on May 3rd. I was on a morning ride with some faster guys, and […]
