Ready for a change?

I’ve had a few too many challenges in 2011 than I’d like to experience, some out of my control and some I’ve created. Yes, I’ve stirred up trouble in a few areas of my life and deep down I know it’s because I’m changing. You know that unsettled, irritated, and somewhat disenchanted feeling? Well yes [...]

Conscious mindset for positive action

Over dinner with a client last night I was sharing my story of the past few weeks and realized the “reactionary” state we’ve been living in. After having a flood in our basement and a bunch of other unexpected events, we’ve been thrust into making decisions and taking action on items that typically would have [...]

I couldn’t have said it any better! Just the other day, I invited a past coaching client to a workshop about ecology and cultural diversity and some of our correspondence contained these words: “explore, waiting to hear back, commitment, mark on my calendar, let me know…”  Then our next exchange was very different, we both [...]

I’m a non-fiction reader and suppose that comes to no surprise given the focus of my interest and work. Recently, my husband pulled a familiar line to our son, “Why don’t you read something?” – gosh I heard that before, when I was young (his age) I wasn’t really an avid reader. My world existed [...]

What “happens” between us

It’s been an awesome two weeks and particularly the past two days, why so? Well because I experienced first hand what happens between two people when energy is exchanged, shared, and quite simply when an idea, concept, or vision is transformed. Everyday we have opportunities to co-create and yet we’re so unaware of the potential [...]

The point of vulnerability

Just when I thought it was okay, it wasn’t, just as I started to share, it got scary,  just as I let my guard down, it felt uncomfortable…how many of us feel a little less okay when we start to open our hearts and share what really matters? For those of us who like control [...]

Recognizing a shift “to do more great work.”

Posted on 17. Mar, 2010 by Susan Wright.

In the past few weeks I have been having conversations with a wide array of people, in new places, about new ideas. I must admit it has been quite a trip! I needed to quiet myself today to come to the awareness that what I’m creating is a shift to do what Michael Bungay Stanier [...]

A new day – life in motion

I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders since receiving a plan to manage my toddler’s health issue.  It has taken more than a year, and certainly many failed attempts, to get a treatment plan for my son’s chronic skin irritation. Today really is a new day as that constant source [...]

Life skills start early on the big yellow bus

I’m tough sometimes; other times, I give in, or lose it. Yesterday was one of those mornings when I lost it. For the first time ever I walked along a busy street with tears streaming in full view of those passing by.  It was one of those moments as a working mother that I felt [...]

The power of relationship and networks

Posted on 11. Nov, 2009 by Susan Wright.

Today I had two constructive conversations; one which connected me to the early days of my business and the other which reminded me of all the people and networks I have engaged with over several years. One conversation was with someone I’ve known for years, while the other with someone I met three days ago. [...]
