Terrie Power Coaching You’re more than who others think you are. To one person, you’re the steady one. To another, the dreamer. To someone else, the fixer… the peacemaker… the bold one. Everyone sees you through their own lens.And over time, it’s easy to forget:You’re allowed to be more than their version of you. We carry stories about ourselves that were handed to us—through family, work, friendships, or past experiences. Some of those stories feel true. Others? They box us in. They keep us...

Terrie Power Coaching What are my goals??? I was sitting there, heart pounding. I knew the answer, but my mind was completely blank. Someone had asked, "So, what goals do you have for this quarter?" Normally, I'm the one asking that question! I remembered coaching a group a couple of years ago. I passionately emphasized the importance of knowing your goals clearly. Many had admitted they couldn't recall theirs. So, I had stressed how critical it was to know your goals. Yet, there I was,...

Terrie Power Coaching Let’s Talk Enneagram & Summer Joy We started the summer off with a bang. My husband and I took a nine-day trip, came home for a few days, and then took a four-day trip with our kids. It was amazing - so much fun and full of great memories. But it was unusual for us. We usually take a longer road trip later in the summer. Suddenly, I feel like there’s nothing left to look forward to. That thought hit me harder than I expected. And as an Enneagram 9, I know how easy it is...

Terrie Power Coaching Mid-Year Clarity Without the Pressure We’re just two weeks away from the halfway mark of the year (how??), and I realized something: One of my big goals for the year was to exercise consistently. And… well… let’s just say I took a little detour. You know the kind where “consistent” turns into “occasionally,” and then into “I wonder where my gym shoes are”? But instead of spiraling into shame or pretending I’d start fresh next year, I asked myself three simple questions....

Terrie Power Coaching What if summer wasn’t just a break, but a reset? Reader, Is it summer already? Summer used to mean one thing for me: sloth mode. No alarms. No schedule. Just lots of TV, comfy clothes, and doing absolutely nothing. Eventually I’d sprinkle in a few fun trips or pool days, but honestly? By the end of the break, I’d often wonder… Did I actually feel refreshed? Then came a shift. Running my own business turned summer into “go time.” I started using the season to catch up,...

Terrie Power Coaching You Don’t Have to Choose Between Fun and Progress It's official! Summer has begun for me. And what that means is a different rhythm. I’m taking a break from my full-time role as a speech-language pathologist, which means I get to dedicate more time to Terrie Power Coaching. But when I first started thinking about how I wanted to spend this summer, I found myself bouncing between two extremes: Do absolutely nothing and just have fun… or Dive into 30 - 40 hours a week...

Terrie Power Coaching Do the Thing First. Then Evaluate. This morning, I had a moment that might sound familiar. I set a goal to move my body for a certain number of minutes each week-something tied to my Weekly Big 3. Simple, right? But as I got ready for my walk, my brain started to sabotage me: "Should I do yoga instead?""Will this get my heart rate high enough?""Maybe I should walk later in the day...""Is this even the right kind of exercise?" All of a sudden, I was caught in a swirl of...

Let’s make the rest of Q2 full of joy, peace, and purpose. 🎶 Whoa, we’re halfway there… Whoa—livin’ on a prayer… 🎶 If you're hearing Bon Jovi in your head right now—same. And honestly? It fits. We are halfway through the second quarter. And maybe you are living on a prayer, running on iced coffee, or just wondering how it’s already May 16.

Terrie Power Coaching May Looks Peaceful… But Feels Like a Marathon The other day, I sat down and thought, “Why am I so tired? This doesn’t make sense.” And then it hit me. Of course I’m tired. We’re in Maycember. That sneaky season that looks like sunshine, flowers, and end-of-year hope… …but feels like a full-blown sprint to the finish line. Graduations. School events. Deadlines. Final pushes at work. Sports, celebrations, and a never-ending to-do list. No wonder we’re all stretched thin....
