Exploding Entrepreneurship – Coaching for Entrepreneurs
Category: Connecting Passion, Purpose and PresenceI’ve been cleaning out my closet. And I’m getting rid of a lot. Of dreams. Not because they are too big. Not because they are too small either. But because they aren’t right for me. Here we are, about to begin another year. Arguably, we begin a new year every day. But we, the “civilized [...]
Sometimes the answer is not a response to the question, but in finding the right question to ask. In a previous post, which included my answer to what The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy author, Douglas Adams, called “The Ultimate Question of Life the Universe and Everything,” I mentioned that we’d be revisiting the question, [...]
Ah magic! We all have it. But so often we close ourselves to our own magic and look to others for the transformations we want to create in our selves and in our businesses. So I offer all prospects and clients a full disclaimer – “I do not have magic wands or magic pills. This [...]
When the delightful and insightful Ava Diamond shared the picture above, taken with her brand new camera at Fossil Creek Reservoir in Colorado, the words that came to me were from the soundtrack from Jonathan Livingston Seagull, the movie. (Neil Diamond’s voice at its most spectacular, images that take your heart soaring and plummeting and spinning dizzy into [...]
I’ve heard people comment that technology is making the world “smaller” but really, it makes it possible for me to connect to more of the world and when I do it makes my world bigger. Whether or not it makes it better is up to me. It is up to me how I interpret my story – do I tell it with love or with hate, with acceptance and tolerance or with vengeance and resentment? It is up to me to connect to the stories of others and to listen long enough to find the ties that bind us together as human beings.
This is one of my favorites from the “Dream it – Plan it – Work it – Live it” deck. The King of Clubs… “Are you using ‘I am what I am’ as an excuse for being less than you can be?” “I yam what I yam and that’s all that I yam.” One of [...]
This post has been bubbling on my back burner for a while and Valentine’s Day seemed like an appropriate time to serve it up. It’s dedicated to everyone who has made me feel worthy of love – from the lady at the dry cleaners who always remembers my name even though I NEVER pronounce hers [...]
“Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy” Thich Nhat Hanh Picture this; you stop for a cup of coffee, tired from a long day followed by a short night, stressed and in a hurry – you just need that cup of joe. [...]
Keeping your goals from becoming a glorified to-do list. This week we begin a new year (and a new decade) and if you are like most of the Western World you have begun making your New Year’s Resolutions. If you are a business owner and entrepreneur like nearly all of my clients and a [...]
Last week I got to do something I had only dreamed of doing; I delivered a keynote for Build Your Own Brand, an event that showcased three of my greatest heroes, two as the featured speakers and one as the Master of Ceremonies. It was in my own city so I got to deliver [...]
"I have personally been on the phone with Dixie when I had challenges in my business and when I had interpersonal challenges that affected my business. She is a wonderful, wonderful coach. She asks the tough questions, she draws out the information from you, and she helps you come up with your own solutions, which is what a coach really does. Dixie helps you bring out your effectiveness and I strongly encourage you to choose to be a part of one of her coaching programs."

"I have many teachers and mentors, but only one coach. Dixie is a class unto herself as a coach, as a muse, as an empowerer and as a fire starter. Because I work with Dixie, my writing is better, my thinking is clearer, my life is richer. Dixie is living proof of the need for human cloning - every entrepreneur needs a Dixie and there is only one."
-Scott Ginsberg, “The Nametag Guy” speaker, author Stick Yourself Out There, -Able and a dozen more
