Read that again, slowly.

A lot of the “advice” we got growing up wasn’t actually about helping us be better people. It was about us being more convenient to the other people in the room.

“You never stick with anything” wasn’t a coaching note. It was overextended adults naming their own exhaustion and pinning it on you.

“You’re too much” wasn’t observational. It was someone telling you that they didn’t have the bandwidth for who you actually are.

“Be realistic” wasn’t insight. It was somebody else’s discomfort with your size, repeating itself until you internalized it.

The advice was real—and designed to benefit the person giving it. The diagnosis of you as a problem to be solved was wrong. And if you’re still hearing that “advice” in your head, you’ve been working on the wrong problem for a long time.

Big Idea to Done is the workbook for the people who are done working on the wrong problem. It walks you through finding out what YOU actually want — not what other people are comfortable with you wanting — and learning how to finally follow through on it. DM me DONE and I’ll send you the link.

It’s not really about running. I promise.

Growing up, I heard “you never stick with anything” so many times it became part of my internal vocabulary.

But I never randomly quit. I would do something until I mastered it. And then it held no interest for me. The adults around me wanted me to do things on repeat because it was convenient for them. I wanted new challenges.

As an adult, that one phrase — “you never stick with anything” — kept me in jobs and relationships that I did not belong in for far too long.
It’s also untrue. I can be consistent. I’ve been running for twenty-plus years. The trick is I have to make it interesting, challenging, accessible, and fun for myself. Different distance, different training plan, different race, different running partner.
Same snack. Same morning run. Same post-race massage.

Consistency isn’t sameness. It’s knowing what to keep and what to rotate.

If you’ve been carrying around a definition of consistency that was never built for how you actually work, you’re going to like it here. I work with people who were told they were the problem when really, someone else’s assumption was. Come hang out.

I joined a hiring committee for a role that aligned with my work. Monthly meeting. No big deal.
A few months in, I’m sitting in the room and I hear someone say off-handedly that there’s no documentation for the role. Just the job description.

No manuals. No SOPs. No checklists. No guidance. At all.

And the role I’d been picturing — entry-level, supported, doable — turned into something else entirely. We were about to hire a junior person and ask them to do the work AND invent it on the fly.

My jaw dropped. And I said, out loud: “I just want to clarify that I’m hearing what I think I am. You’re telling me there is NO documentation at all for this role?”

The room got quiet. Everyone felt terrible. They didn’t know why yet. They just knew it was because of me.

I was absolutely embarrassed that I said it OUT LOUD. Until everyone came up to me individually after the meeting and said “Someone needed to say it. At least it was you.”

If you’ve spent your career being the person who says it out loud —and gets the weird looks for it — you’re in the right place. I work with the people who see what everyone else has decided they can ignore. Follow along if that sounds like you.

Most of us were taught that needing help means something’s wrong.
That struggling means we just need to try harder.

But the truth is—systems are only supportive when they reflect the life they’re meant to hold.

You’re not meant to force your way through.
You’re meant to be supported.
