If your team opens Asana and feels confused, overwhelmed, or unsure where to click next, that is not user error. That is architecture.
Asana should feel like a home base. One place where people know exactly where to go, what to do, and how their work connects to the whole.

Every December, I hear the same thing: “Nothing happens this time of year.”
No new clients. No new projects. No momentum.
But that’s only true if you choose to take your foot off the gas.
There are still deals being done, relationships being built, and opportunities sitting on the table.

Self-paced courses can’t do everything.
Three-hour consults can’t do everything.
Group programs can’t do everything.
Premium offers exist because sometimes people need something deeper.

The next time someone does this, we have three very obvious counter questions to prove the point:
1. I’ll prove to you that even you know it’s bad. You can prove me wrong by telling everyone listening your full name and where you work. If you don’t think it’s wrong, say it with your full chest.

How I built my offer ecosystem, so I don’t leave anyone behind...
When I started creating paid offers, I faced a dilemma: should I pick one format and price or create multiple options?
After years of trial and error, I realized that to create real impact, I needed more than one path.

How do we build businesses that don’t exclude the very people we want to help?
That’s the question I wrestle with constantly as a coach and entrepreneur.

We love certainty. We want to know who we are...to have a clean, confident story about ourselves.
But that certainty can become a cage. The moment we define ourselves too tightly, we limit what’s possible.
What if, instead of saying “I am this,” we said, “I’m currently becoming this”?

In regulated, cross-functional industries like pharma and biotech, productivity systems must be precise, secure, and repeatable.
But great systems aren’t just about the tool, it’s about the people using it.

You want to speak out but worry no one will see your post (or worse, that the wrong people will).
You want to protest but fear what might happen if you do.

The cycle:
"I'll post online!"
→ Not enough
"I'll protest!"
→ What if I get tear gassed?
"I'll withhold taxes!"
→ What if I get arrested?
Every option feels like serious danger.
But the paralysis isn't apathy. It's fear by design.

So much of our culture’s obsession with productivity isn’t driven by ambition; it’s driven by fear.
Fear of not having enough.
Fear of losing what we’ve built.
Fear of falling behind.

“Help me understand.”
It’s a simple phrase. But for neurodivergent professionals, it can be a powerful moment of support.
Instead of assuming how someone works best, we need to Ask:
💬 What helps you feel focused?
💬 How do you prefer to communicate?
💬 What obstacles are getting in your way?

Strength doesn’t always come from the gym.
Sometimes it comes from love, anger, hope — or even spite.
When things get heavy (literally or metaphorically), I’ve learned to find strength in surprising places. And the truth is, there’s no single source of power. We all have our own.
