On Trying So Hard

by Arielle | October 26, 2021 | Connection, Self-Discovery, Storytelling | 0 Comments

We search for wisdom in all kinds of places; books, experiences, conversations, and the like. What I’ve found though is that some of my most profound epiphanies - moments of deep wisdom - have come from nature. I have an herb garden. I keep it on my tiny apartment...

The Quest of Unbecoming

by Arielle | October 12, 2021 | Connection, Goals, Self-Discovery | 0 Comments

I read a quote this week that really moved me and I immediately saved it to MyMind (been loving this tool for months). “Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were...

What People Get Wrong About Consistency

by Arielle | September 28, 2021 | Goals, Habits, Storytelling | 0 Comments

A recent conversation with a client illuminated what I imagine many people get wrong about consistency. They conflate perfectionism with consistency. I’ll explain: Let’s pretend you’re trying to increase your thought leadership and commit to writing for one hour 3x...

Connect Your Own Dots

by Arielle | September 21, 2021 | Balance, Goals, Habits | 0 Comments

Question for you: What’s your current balance of consuming others’ ideas versus making time to hold space for your own? Our culture values personal and professional growth. This usually involves acquiring knowledge, perspective, and experience to evolve for the...

The Experiment That’ll Change Everything

by Arielle | August 30, 2021 | Self-Discovery | 0 Comments

I’ve written before about how confidence is a result, not a prerequisite, but I want to expand on that idea. Here’s something to stew on: We act our way into new ways of thinking and being. Have you ever wanted to step into a new role or embody a different kind of...

A Quick, Zero-Fluff Way To See If You’re Living In Alignment With Your Values

by Arielle | August 18, 2021 | Goals, Self-Discovery, Storytelling | 0 Comments

Most of us don’t like to think about our mortality. But I think contemplating death every now and then fosters wisdom. We’re always looking forward, often racing to the next chapter. But what about when it’s time to look backward? What will we hope we did when our...

We Imagine Utopias, But Utopias Don’t Exist

by Arielle | August 4, 2021 | Habits, Storytelling | 0 Comments

You know the saying, “the grass is always greener on the other side”? It’s human to fantasize about how much “better” things must be for someone else in some other place with different circumstances. We’ve all done this. I’ve seen this fantasy manifest in its own...

The Wisdom of Improv

by Arielle | July 19, 2021 | Habits, Self-Discovery | 0 Comments

I took an improv class years ago in NYC. I wanted to improve my presentation skills and figured being thrown into a situation where I needed to think on my feet would help me “roll with it” at work. It did. And then I forgot about improv until picking up a book...

Stuck on a Problem?

by Arielle | July 5, 2021 | Goals, Self-Discovery | 0 Comments

I decided to pick up the violin in my 30s. I have no previous experience with music or instruments, so I knew it’d be a steep learning curve. Currently: I suck to anyone with ears. But watching myself improve ever-so-slightly, week after week, for the last 3 months...

What If It’s Not a Limiting Belief?

by Arielle | May 25, 2021 | Habits, Self-Discovery

The term “limiting beliefs” gets tossed around a lot, but I’d say that’s by and large because many of us have adopted beliefs that limit us. However, limiting beliefs are not always the culprits keeping us from creating what we truly want. I’ve had conversations with...

What Really Causes Burnout and How to Overcome It

by Arielle | Apr 15, 2020 | Balance, Habits

Most of the conversation around burnout today is grounded in overworking. The belief is that when we work too hard or too much, we burn out. That argument isn’t entirely false, but I don’t think it’s the full story. If that were true, then why is it that some...

How To Set Goals That Stick Using Neurolinguistic Programming

by Arielle | Mar 16, 2020 | Goals

SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, timely) goals have been a popular goal-setting method for startups, entrepreneurs, and ambitious professionals wanting to get granular about their goals. I think SMART goals have their use, but in truth, they’re not...

How to Clarify Your Story to Grow Your Business

by Arielle | Mar 6, 2020 | Branding, Storytelling

The human brain is wired for stories, which is why we’ve been telling them for millennia. Stories make people feel something and if done well, inspire them to act. You’ve probably noticed you have a hard time remembering facts, figures, hell, even names...
