Selected Writing
If you’d like to get a deeper sense of my style, I invite you to visit and subscribe, free of charge, to Big Blue Sky Dragonfly, my blog on Substack. Each week, I unpack topics under the theme of how to meet our competing needs for authenticity and belonging. These are questions at the heart of my coaching, and ones that I myself have grappled with.
Some of the posts that speak most directly to topics related to my coaching are:
“Fly-on-the-Wall’s Eye View” - a 360-degree perspective on gender
“Sensitivity as Resistance” - Reflections on embracing and celebrating emotional sensitivity
“Longing for Belonging” - Exploration of the differences between belonging and fitting in
“Grief Gremlins” - A discussion about disenfranchised grief
