“Before working with Meg I was really struggling with the shame and perfectionism around starting and stopping, “failing” so many times. After working with Meg, I now feel free of that ridiculous “truth” about myself that I was lugging around — that past failures or unmet goals meant that I was incapable and would never finish anything. I honestly feel so much lighter in my soul, knowing now that I can start over again as many times as it takes, and that what it actually means is that I’m committed to continue trying over and over again, not that I keep stopping. It now feels possible that I am actually going to start taking steps forward on what I want to do with my life, instead of being stuck following a particular path just because that’s what I see so many other people doing, even other creative people. There is no one way, and I feel like I have new fire under me to just do what feels right to me, even if it’s not the thing I see everyone else doing. I feel empowered to go out there and just take the next first step and I have a ton of great tangible ideas rolling around in my brain that are inspiring what that next action is going to be.I loved being able to ask Meg questions as they came up for me, and get outside perspective on different ways I could approach my goals. I feel empowered to go out and do MY thing. The weight of the weird shame around “failing” in this writing thing all my life is like, totally gone. I’ve been getting back to the 100 day project and I’ve missed days in between but I just keep going back to it and there is no longer any weird negative self-talk telling me that I’m just going to fail again so why bother. Meg was compassionate, open, asked lots of good questions, genuinely interested in me and what I needed and how we could best get me to where I wanted to be. The experience was amazingly helpful and motivating for me. The way she helped me to reframe things that I had known before but never really “got” have made a huge difference in my outlook and on the future of my creative projects and the creative career that I am making for myself.” -

“Before working with Meg I was stuck on how my passions and goals could come together as a cohesive whole, and also how I could monetise things beyond tech. I felt like the disparate parts of myself had to remain separate. I now feel like I have a plan and a direction, and it can encompass all the different parts of me.”

The thing I found the most helpful was the diagram Meg drew showing how things I care about overlap and intersect. Meg helped me look at my career and what i thought were "extra-curriculars" in a very different way. I liked that Meg obviously thought quite a lot about what points she wanted to cover before you asked questions, as well as exploring and changing course as things came up. I feel so much more excited and positive about the future, and I have a plan.”
