Transitions

May 19, 20263 min read

In my years as a triathlete my transitions were freakin' fast. I prided myself on this capacity to go from swim to bike faster than most and bike to run with little delay. I had the privilege of racing at IRONMAN World Championship in Kona a couple of times. I had the great blessing of watching our sport debut at the Olympics in Sydney and I committed that day: I will do THAT.

A few years later I was racing pro, all in for the Olympics , with two young daughters at home, on a mission to share limitless possibility with all.

My Olympic dream crashed with strep, bronchitis, 2 ear infections and coughing up blood in 2008 when on Saturday morning the Urgent Care doc called and told me if I get on the airplane I would do permanent damage to my body.

I went back to sleep that day, let go of everything to heal and this began...

the

longest

slowest

transition

of

my

life.

In lycra I felt like I could do anything.
Speed. Power Efficiency. I was in control. I knew what I needed to do.


The hiccup came in every other area of my life.
I was a hot F*#$ing MESS.


I looked good on the outside. Showed well.
Yet on the inside I felt like I had done all of life wrong.

Triathlon was how I proved to myself I was ok, and now it was gone and I was lost. I tried to fill this hole with people pleasing, giving, connecting to others.

Back then I didn't have the capacity to say to myself 'I'm not OK and that's OK."

These 18 years have been a slow and wild transition from outsourcing my power, believing everyone else received the 'how to do life right' memo and living in fight flight freeze fawn ...
to, slowly, one breath at a time, taking my power back, finding my voice and making one decision.

I made one decision to go all on me. All in to take 100% responsibility for myself and live in alignment with who I was called here to be.

ME First at ALL COSTS. ME First is the movement I am creating. ME First is an acronym for Master Energy First ....inside of me and from there I am available to show up for life.

There's no training plan "THEY" can give me for this, I got to develop it myself.


One breath.
One intuitive knowing.
One move at a time.

As I clear my desk today to fly to Colorado for a deep inward dive, I'm so curious what is coming. This feels like the completion of the chapter of transition and the beginning of a totally new chapter for which I don't get to know what is coming.

I know my intentions for Q3 this year include:
💕Completing the 1st draft for my book: Pocketbook for Power: Rewiring Your Nervous System for Wealth
💕Launching the group coaching program that makes my work accessible to so many more(happy dance): Wired for Wealth Group Coaching Experience for leaders, coaches and creatives ready to blend high performance business strategy with embodied presence.
💕Launching the Power Playhouse Oahu and moving Mom to Hawaii for a 7 month coaching immersion, with me.

👉I know my support comes from my breath, my feet and the GPS(Grace Positioning System) that has led me here.

👉I know it's OK to not know.

I'm taking 7 days, now, off all technology. ME First at all costs.
I'll see you on the flip side of this transition.

👉It's Our Time to Thrive!
💕GO TEAM!💕
