Transitions are hard. Permission to Bloom by Glenna Wiseman is inspiration, tools and coaching to turn transitions into triumph.

If your goals keep slipping, it may not be “lack of will.”
It may be lack of meaning.
Purpose acts like an inner compass—helping goals reinforce each other instead of compete.

Our uniqueness is not something to manufacture. It is something to remember.

Purpose is how the beauty of the soul finds its way into lived reality — through the choices we make and what we choose to prioritize.

Purpose isn’t a shield from difficulty. It’s an inner compass.

It doesn’t make the path easier, but it helps us stay oriented when things get complex, uncertain, or demanding.

This is not an ordinary New Year. Or the normal round of New Year’s resolution setting.

So it’s no surprise many goals won’t stick this year, not because we’re failing, but because old approaches can’t carry the weight of what we’re being asked to hold.

Purpose doesn’t always arrive as a calling.

Sometimes it arrives as a legacy.

A piano. A hidden love note. A story about what endures.

The moment we allow light through our own cracks; we don’t just heal.
We lead differently.
We bloom.

As Thanksgiving approaches, I’m reminded how gratitude expands what’s good in our lives — often in ways we don’t realize until we pause to name it.

Wishing you a #Thanksgiving filled with warmth, clarity, and connection. May gratitude help you grow what matters most.

A stormy Friday night. A delayed flight. A sudden upward jolt to avoid another aircraft.
In one moment, everything sharpened.
I realized how easily achievement can outpace what’s true inside.
That experience became the beginning of my purpose journey — one I’m still grateful for today.

A Crack in the Armor, for Which I Am Grateful
The moment we allow light through our own cracks, we don’t just heal -- we lead differently. We bloom.
