I'm not going to lie to you, friends. I don't think I have been this excited since I opened my doors. Let me tell you about Forty Steps Closer.
I feel like this is my Mona Lisa. My Star Wars. My Crash Into Me.
For those of you at work or otherwise not into videos, I'll give you the rundown.
I hadn't planned on doing this. At all. I was going to focus on different things in my coaching practice. I was going to rerun my favorite offering and then create an ebook as we went along. I was going to work on the production side of things instead of the creative side of things (if that makes any sense).
But as I started getting really introspective in my various journeys right now, I realized that I put a lot of things off because I think I have to know everything before I get started. I think I have to have a concrete 5 or 10 or 35 step plan. And getting that plan together seems just as daunting as the task itself.
I started thinking back to my coaching business. I thought I had to have everything figured out before I got started. But, you know what? The opposite happened.

Once I got started, I figured things out.
And I made real progress when I did something each day.
Some days, my goal actions are big and scary and brave. Other days, my goal actions are boring and mundane. (*cough* taxes *cough*) But each day, no matter what, I do something intentional to get closer to my eventual goal.
That, my friends, is what forty steps closer is about. Choosing a goal - as broad or as specific as you'd like - and making consistent, steady, daily progress.
Do you want to write a book?
Do you want to finally get your house organized?
Do you want to learn to play the ukelele?
Do you want to become a plant-based eater?
Whatever your goal is, I am giving you the skills to make progress towards it in forty days. In both group and one-on-one sessions, we'll brainstorm, encourage, and hold each other accountable.
Will you go from beginner to a professional drummer? Probably not. Will you be ready to run a marathon? No. But after our forty days? You'll have a firm foundation, a steady start, lots of ideas, and a solid community to utilize.
I am so excited to see how the variety of goals will help you think outside of the box. I can't wait to see Mary's action steps to be financially responsible impact Sally's process of building her painting skills.
I. just. cannot. wait.
I have no idea who to credit, but I found this little gem scribbled in the margins of my planner:

We choose the weight of our process.
I think that is where this offering can make the most difference. We can work together to diffuse the weight of your goal process. We can take all of our brains and be creative and playful and make the process of becoming your dream a little less lonely and intimidating.

There are not enough adjectives to describe how fantastic Krissie truly is with her clients. From the first phone call to the last e-mail, I felt as though I was working with a cherished friend who wanted to see my success - which she did.

You know all those thoughts and ideas you have right before you fall asleep at night--those big dreams? And then you wake up you have a million reasons why none of it will ever work--it's just too scary, you can't do any of them, you're just too busy, and anyway life is generally OK now? Those thoughts are your future happiness, and Krissie will help you work through them in the sunshine. She will help you look at why those ideas are scary, at why they are amazing, at how they could change your life if you'd let them. The prompts that she sends are just the beginning of the journey, the opening door. The one-on-one phone calls or texts are the first steps over the threshold. And when you smell the air out there, when you see your dreams with their beautiful winged possibilities flying all around you, you'll find yourself taking your own steps out there into the world of making your best self. - Lori in Pennsylvania, beFULL, summer 2013
Are you excited yet? I am.
