I was working the youth check-in table at church Sunday night when the person beside me asked how I had been this month. I turned to look at her square in the face and responded: “Confronted.”

“Oh, wow. That’s loaded!” she replied — and it was!

I’ve been playing big lately -  in so many ways (see pics!) Putting myself “out there” and inviting myself into a future me has not been super comfy.

If you’ve been following the social media pages, you know HLHWC has a BIG event happening this month in Wilmington, NC. It’s been two years since I created a live event. Two years of stepping back from the business as Mom has had life transitions. Two years of coaching, but not speaking. Two years of beginning to wonder — do I have anything worthwhile to say? Anything that could invite women to move forward in their own lives? Two years to become ready again to step into my BIG, FULL SELF.

So yeah, it’s been confronting.

P.S. From Here to There is almost here. If you’ve been on the fence — this is your nudge. I’d love to see your face in that room.

I was invited to be on the cover of our neighborhood magazine. Confronting much???🙄 Said Yes anyway! End result -  Met more of my neighbors in real life!❤️

BONUS: The Process, Rest, Play pattern is still keeping me sane over here — I somehow forget that rest is the key that unlocks play. Process straight to play just doesn’t happen!!

Got brave and invited myself to a friend’s house! Did arrive with a chicken pie though. Yes, I made the roses! 🌹

“Hi Amy! As awkward as it is to share a picture of myself in a bathing suit, I just had to let you know that I made it!! Starbucks Carolyn is now Poolside Carolyn - writing my book in sunny Mexico! You helped make that happen!!”

— Carolyn ❤️❤️❤️

Real talk for real people who want to feel good again — inside and out.
