Four Ways To Find Me Online:
Dear ,

I have been thinking about freedom lately. What does it really mean? For me, my children, my friends, my clients and citizens our country; to have complete freedom to be who we are and do what we want?
 
Rumi wrote:
"You were born with potential.
You were born with goodness and trust.
You were born with ideals and dreams.
You were born with greatness.
You were born with wings.
You were not meant for crawling, so don't.
You have wings.
Learn to use them and fly."
 
The above quote reminds me why I love coaching so much and the importance of using our potential. The premise in coaching that my clients are creative, resourceful and whole and their answers are within. It is my job to unearth solutions and give them the courage and confidence to move forward.  I teach my clients to use their wings and plot the course of where they want to go. Everything is already there. So, are you free to use your full potential? Are you pursuing your ideals and dreams? Do you trust yourself to have your own answers? If not, I encourage you to find the tools you need to fully embrace your greatness and start flying. 
 
An example of freeing oneself is my client success story this month. Kelley freed herself from the corporate world and is now flying with her own business and enjoying her other passions. She assists others in finding freedom with their money, teaches fitness classes and loves her new authentic life.
 
I, too, took a risk several years ago in re-creating my life to reflect my values. One of them was the freedom to be who I am without concern about what others think. It has been challenging at times (these are opportunities to grow and learn!) but mostly it is extraordinary; in my creative pursuits through Excavive, my impact on others both personally and professionally and my unending curiosity to keep flying higher. I encourage you to consider how you can "free yourself" and live a meaningful, liberated life.

Excavive Client Success

"I was referred to Jennifer upon my initial thoughts of leaving corporate America and starting my own consulting business. I was afraid of taking a risk and not sure where to even start. As I spoke with Jennifer about my idea to become an independent Financial Coach, it quickly grew from an idea to a plan to reality! The discovery work I did with Jennifer freed me of many self-limiting beliefs as well as helped me to prioritize my time and efforts.
 
For years I had been limiting the use of my natural talents in order to fit in with what I thought was the order of the world. By helping me uncover my own unique fit in the world, Jennifer showed me the path to freeing my true personality and harnessing its power to make the world a better place!
 
Using her coaching skills combined with her own experiences and natural intuition, Jennifer set me on the path to leaving the rat race and embarking on my journey to help others discover freedom from money concerns and fears. She was frank and insightful, with the perfect combination of holding me accountable to myself while also encouraging me to think outside the box. I'm thrilled to offer my clients peace of mind through my program: Your Life. Your Money. Your Plan.
 
Thank you, Jennifer, for your guidance, gentleness, and for so freely giving of yourself!"

My Evolve column this month, called "Free Yourself," discusses ways to define your personal freedom, and includes both areas to let go of (after all you are not free if you have created internal blocks)and areas to move towards. Some ways include freedom of choice, freedom of expression, and spiritual freedom. If you are interested in exploring all 13 ways to find your freedom, I have an expanded version you can read here.
