Making Peace With Being Busy
I’m not going to lie. It’s been a bit of a busy season these past couple of weeks since returning from Costa Rica. This week we wrapped up our unveiling of CTC Circle, hosted our first community kick-off call, and I’ve also been supporting the final phase
WC 016: I Got Called Out
I got called out. I woke up this morning to a message from a mentor asking me why I had strayed from a plan that was offered, and that I had wholeheartedly agreed to. I’m a bit of a rebel and I’ve always had a tendency to go
WC 015: The Indifference of a Vast Universe
I'm back! Feels good to drop in with you after a bit of a much needed break, and admittedly, some hammock hustling on the side. It's funny how these things go. I haven't taken a peek at my email stats in well over a
WC 014: Taking a Brief Pause
This 14th issue of the Wizard’s chest marks the start of my “spring break”, which is something I’ve been looking forward to for almost three years now, since the start of the pandemic. Coming off an incredible Q1 and our second cohort of Automated Intimacy, I’ll be

WC 009: The Enchanting First Encounter
Something I’ve been reflecting on this week is how a single action can lead to two very different results based on where your energy is centered. It’s easy to get highly focused on a strategy, and lose sight of the original intention behind it. It’s also far
WC 008: What will you carry forward?
I remember exactly where I was when I decided to wind down Hearing Experts Alliance. Janice and I were living in Boston. It was mid-January, we were right in the middle of a brutal snow storm, and all I could think of was how I wanted to be anywhere other
WC 007: Creation, Maintenance, & Destruction
Something I've been wrestling with this week is the natural tension between expansion and maintenance in my work. I think we're all bound to experience this when we have some degree of commitment to our own growth. On one hand, we have to accept that we
