TL;DR: This week I rode mountain bikes along the Pacific, watched a car drive itself through San Luis Obispo, sat with a question I thought had no answer, and learned (again) that what I’m holding tightest is sometimes the thing most ready to be hand...
TL;DR: This week I was on base, in coaching conversations, on a Teams call with 100 people, at dinner with an old friend, and standing in the Grand Canyon. The thread that kept surfacing: how hard it is to see a path before it’s obvious - and the wil...
TL;DR: This week I was the overnight caregiver for my mom in Petaluma so my sister could rest, and I rode my bike through West Marin twice with nothing but cows and a white line for company. Both required the same thing - showing up, being quiet, and...

TL;DR: Between highways, workshops, a memorial ride, and honest conversations, I felt a shift this week. I am choosing presence over performance, clarity over guessing, and standing in my truth while allowing others to stand in theirs.TSN 26.7: "On S...
TL;DR: A week of caregiving, coaching, and slowing down. Time offering care; asking bigger questions. I’m noticing what it means to give without taking over, to work without rushing, and to hold uncertainty without needing to solve it. Even when the...
TL;DR: I got to slow down and stay present this week. Some plans fell apart, others "over-achieved." I noticed doubt, fear, and care all showing up at once. I chose to sit down instead of pushing through, to keep caring even when it costs something,...
