Tomorrow, May 4, is my birthday.
Really, I’m still walking around with my head in the clouds from my amazing life-changing trip to Portland. And I’m trying to get ready to move into my amazing life-changing Dream Loft.
There are lots of big things happening in my world. And it feels like my birthday has been is eclipsed by these Big Things Happening.
Nevertheless, I turn 38.

And when I say that I can feel me-in-my-20s jumping up and down and clapping at how things turned out. Yay! You have so many amazing things happening you don’t care about your birthday! The struggles were worth it!
Because my birthday used to be a really big deal to me.
I’d take the day off work to do all of my favourite things and go to all of my favourite places and, most importantly, do my special Birthday Journaling ritual. Reflecting on the year past and setting intentions for the year to come.
I created that ritual out of my desire to keep moving forward towards my dreams even though Everything Felt Impossible a lot of the time. For some reason, my birthday felt like a magic day that wouldn’t let those impossible feelings in.
So in a lot of ways – every day is my birthday now.
I do journaling and being conscious and intentional for a living!
And I’m always doing my favourite things and going to my favourite places – Extreme Self-Care is built into my schedule, I don’t have to take a day off to do it.
And Everything Does Not Feel Impossible. I’m living a lot of my biggest dreams now, and working on dreaming up new ones. So in a lot of ways, every day is my birthday now. Which is amazing.
But there is one important way that I want to mark this day.
I’m raising my coaching rate.
I actually lowered my rate in the fall when I was living in the tent. I felt like I couldn’t guarantee that I’d have a quiet interruption-free workspace and just didn’t feel comfortable charging my regular rate.
It turned out that all of my coaching sessions since have been beautiful, transformative and sparkly-magic-awesome. Which is great!
In fact, one of my recent clients, who herself is a successful coach with 22 years experience, with an entire network of coaches working for her, who has worked with some of the biggest and most expensive coaches around told me that my coaching was the best she’d ever received.
And now I’m ready to put the price back to reflect the actual value of what I have to offer.
So May 4, my birthday, is the last day to book sessions with me for cheap.
Do you have dreams you want to grow into Real Live Things?
I can help!
I can help you dissolve obstacles like a sugar cube in a hot cup of a tea.
I can help turn your Inner Critics into powerful allies.
I can help you make it happen.
So let’s do this!

A Very Happy and Creative Birthday to you!
Happy birthday Andrea,
May all your dreams come true. You deserve some spoilage on this magical day.
Looking forward to see what you got up to.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Andrea! Your star shines sooo BRIGHT! And it’s even extra sparkly on your birthday. ;o) I hope you take a whole week to celebrate! And beautiful news about owning your worth and charging for it. I turned 39 in December, so 40 is coming up…it feels big, but in a good way. I’ve started doing all of my fave things more–just more of everything, and it feels so good. No midlife crisis here… in fact the opposite! I’ve just begun the 1st module of your Creative Dream Incubator and will be working through this the rest of the year–it is sooo exciting and the timing couldn’t be better. THANK YOU for all you do and offer. :o) ((HUGS))
Happy (belated) birthday! I believe birthdays are special too!
Let’s celebrate your birthday next year on the beachfront home that you help me create with an amazing cup of coffee
You are my fairy godmother! Happy Birthday!
