Hey there ,

I have been writing this email to you since Monday.

Today is Thursday, and it's still not finished (but it will be when you get it!).

My brain does NOT appreciate this.

I'm sure you have had this happen to you too with something that didn't go to plan.

My mind is offering me LOTS of words about this particular email.

For example, 'I need to send you this email on schedule' (even though in my business I make my own damn schedule).

'It should have already been sent.'

'I was supposed to have this done on Monday.'

Yet here we are.

And you know what?

It's okay.

No one has died.

My business hasn't failed.

And the world hasn't ended.

I get to tell my brain to chill the hell out.

This email was going to be about my blue bracelet.

There is a story to it and why I wear it every day, and I recently realized that it's not a story I've actually told anyone (except one client...).

But today is not the day for it.

I'm not exactly sure why, but it seems it's just not a fully cooked idea yet. I've been struggling to share it all week.

(I'm sure that this too has happened to you - where you've pushed and pushed to get something done that just isn't coming...and no matter what you do it's just not quite time.)

So I am going to respect my story - and let it come out when it's ready.

And I'm going to respect my business, my process, and my timing.

You are getting this email ultimately because I wanted to reach out to you over email today, and so I am.

Not because it's a need to, should, or have to - but because you matter to me, and I appreciate you being here, along with me on this journey.

Sometimes timing isn't right.

Sometimes to-dos don't get done.

Sometimes things don't go to plan.

And my job as a business owner, as a coach, as a mom, as a teacher, and as a human is to not make it a problem.

It's okay.

It could be that this week you have something not going to plan.

Something that you just. can't. finish (or start).

Something that you just haven't managed to accomplish.

Today I want you to know that it's okay.

It is safe to trust that even though the thing isn't done, there isn't a problem. Nothing has gone wrong, and everything is okay.

It is safe to trust yourself, your process, and your timing.

It's safe to know that they are ALWAYS right, and you are always right on time.

Because you can't be late for your own life, and you can't be late for your own success.

And at some point, I'll tell you the story about my bracelet. :)

Warmly,

Sara

P.S. If you are at the point in your journey where you might be ready for a coach, but you're afraid to reach out, I get it.

Trusting yourself, your process, and your timing is always the right choice - but it's hard. And then you have to also decide to trust someone else (maybe me) in and around you and your business.

Know that I have been in your shoes, sending the message to set up a time to talk, and then thinking 'Omg, what the hell am I doing.'

I can't promise that we'll be the perfect fit. But I can promise that the conversation will be worth your time. I can promise that there won't be pressure to say yes. And I can promise that you'll walk away - no matter what - clearer about your business and what to do next to grow.

If you're ready to talk (even thought you're not really sure you're ready to talk), you can book your free conversation about coaching here.
