If you ever find yourself feeling too busy, too overwhelmed, or too burdened with to dos and it’s standing in the way of you packaging your genius and making the impact you’re meant to make on this world, you need to generate a surplus.
And while it seems counterintuitive, much of that surplus can be connected to making more time (I know, I know – you’re already stretched thin) for yourself.
But this is a personal experiment I’ve been conducting in my life, and the results have been priceless.
Since implementing a more intentional and daily self balancing routine I have experienced:
more clarity on my business challenges
clarity on what is standing in my way personally
motivation to push through on hard things
patience and grace with myself
perspective – understanding when I’m assigning too much or too little significance to something
a higher tolerance for stress
resilience
If you’re too busy to package your genius, putting yourself back on the calendar is a practice I encourage you to try.
Get yourself back on the agenda so you can generate the surplus from which you can serve.
Because you can only give from your overflow.

If you’ve been thinking about joining us for the fall cohort of Package Your Genius Academy, this is the last week to apply. Sessions start Tuesday, October 8.
While I’m clear on how I want to serve (as one who helps others find and get back on their true path) I thought about a few of the people who have benefited most from going through the program and my teachings.
Do any of these people sound like you?
Are you at a crossroads professionally and personally – perhaps you’ve hit a milestone birthday and you’re pondering the bigger questions of your life like “Is this what I want to be doing with my gifts and talents? Is there another professional path for me? Am I showing up the way I truly want to, or am I showing up as others have always expected me to?”
Do you know in your gut that the current stage of your professional journey is over, but you haven’t figured out how to activate your next chapter?
Do you feel like something is just…off? You’re a success on paper, but you’ve yet to knock it out of the park doing what you really want to do? You feel like something is missing – the right message, the right market, the right formula to serve – but you’re just too close to see the missing piece…
Did you recently leave your job or find yourself on leave wondering what’s next? You’re a little nervous about making a financial commitment because the future of money is uncertain, but there’s something telling you it’s time to take a leap?
Are you at a plateau having done all you know to do to make yourself stand out? You know you’ve got the goods but the world doesn’t see you or your accomplishments clearly? (You know this because your compensation and industry acknowledgement don’t match the time and work you’ve put in up to this point…)
Do you live with the daily regret of not betting on yourself sooner? Are you secretly worried that perhaps you missed your moment and it’s too late for you to leap?
If any of those scenarios resonated with you, I’m here.
Here to help you cut through the overgrowth and get back on the path again.
And trust me, the path may look overgrown and indistinguishable right now, but I promise you, it’s there.
And I can help you find it.
It’s the LAST WEEK to apply for Package Your Genius Academy. We are enrolling students for the fall cohort that begins Tuesday, October 8. Doors won’t open again until sometime in 2020. If you’re interested in joining us, learn more and apply now.
