Spring? Is that you? It’s hard to tell from where I’m standing.⁣
⁣
I spent part of the first day of spring doing a 3-hour one-on-one retreat with a coaching client. It was sort of a spring cleaning for her life: intentionally cutting out unhelpful patterns and designing her daily rhythms to create the feelings she wants to cultivate, while creating space to work toward larger goals.⁣
⁣
We ended our time together by structuring her Mindset Movie. Have I mentioned those lately? She’ll pick a song, create some statements about what she wants her life to be, and I’ll edit a sort of movie trailer of “coming attractions” with a mix of her actual family and friends and reminders of what’s next.⁣
⁣
Over time, Mindset Movies keep our goals front and center, help us overcome the fears around them, and eventually help us achieve what’s in the movie. ⁣
⁣
One of last year’s Mindset Movie clients texted me this weekend that she just put an offer on a house that is extremely similar to the pictures we put into her Mindset Movie. She’s not the only one with a story like that.⁣

What sort of spring cleaning are you doing? Is there anything that you could clear out of your life to make room for bigger goals?⁣
