My Weekly Recap August 9th, 2026

I hosted my third blind wine tasting with my neighbors over the weekend.

It's become one of my favorite traditions.

Everyone brings a bottle of wine hidden inside a bag so no one knows what they're drinking. One person decants all the wines, labels them, and then we taste every single one, scoring each out of ten. Then we go back and taste them all again before we reveal the winner.

It's amazing how often the least expensive bottle surprises everyone.

But as much as I enjoy the wine, it's really the people that make these evenings so special.

Our little group includes heart surgeons, nurses, Hollywood writers, authors, entrepreneurs, energy healers, and people from all walks of life. It's one of those gatherings where every conversation is interesting.

Nat! At one point, someone asked me what I did for a living.

Before I could answer, one of my neighbors smiled and said, "Oh... she's a self-help guru. She changes people's lives."

I laughed and said, "I actually don't like the word guru."

To me, a guru suggests someone has all the answers, and everyone else should follow them.

That's never been how I've seen my work.

I don't believe people need someone to rescue them.

I believe they need the right tools, the right questions, and the right guidance so they can transform their own lives.

That's what great coaching really is.

And if you're a coach, healer, consultant, or practitioner, one of the greatest gifts you can give someone isn't having all the answers.

It's understanding the problems they're desperately trying to solve.

When you can clearly identify the challenges that keep people awake at night, they feel seen.

They trust you.

They invest.

And most importantly, they get real results.

That's why I wanted to share this free guide from my friend Dr. Claire Zammit.

It's called The 12 Problems Women Pay Premium Rates to Solve, and it identifies the handful of life challenges women will gladly invest thousands of dollars to overcome.

If you're building a coaching practice or even thinking about it this guide is incredibly valuable because it takes the guesswork out of knowing where you can make the biggest difference.

~ In this week's blog: Dr. Joe Dispenza says, "To create a new life, you have to leave part of yourself behind." At first glance, this might sound daunting. After all, we've spent years developing our habits, routines, and ways of thinking. But what if these very patterns are the invisible chains holding us back from the future we desire? Each new day is a fresh start - a new lifetime. It's a chance to create your future with intention and attention but to truly embrace this opportunity, you must understand the power of choice and self-awareness.
