Why Depth Calls Us Now

There’s a shift that happens with time and experience. The highlight-reel life loses its shine, and depth starts to matter more than performance. Many of us find that we now recharge in solitude. The conversations that once felt lively now skim the surface. We want substance, intimacy, and spaces where our inner world is allowed—invited, even.

If you’ve noticed yourself pulling back from small talk, you’re not broken and you’re not alone. Your nervous system is asking for honesty. Your energy is asking for stewardship. That craving for depth is an intelligence moving through you.

Untangling the Not-Good-Enough Gremlin

As soon as we reach for something meaningful, the not-good-enough gremlin shows up. She’s persistent and very convincing. She points to our bodies, our credentials, our timelines, our output: Not ready. Not right. Not enough.

The gremlin thrives on comparison and perfectionism. She also thrives in a culture that profits from our self-doubt. If most women feel unhappy with parts of their bodies, that is a staggering amount of energy being siphoned away from creativity, leadership, and solutions. What would happen if we returned even a fraction of that energy to our ideas? How many offers would be launched, books written, communities built, teams led—if we redirected the energy we spend editing ourselves?

This isn’t a call to ignore complexity. It’s a call to notice the gremlin, name her tactics, and choose differently. Curiosity is more powerful than perfection. Experimentation is more honest than performance. Progress loves momentum, not immaculate timing.

From Fear to Experiment: Remember Your Genius

What does this look like in practice? It means letting your inner authority—your quiet knowing—set the pace. It means building your life and business around your real energy, not the version you think you should have. It means creating from the inside out.

One gentle way to begin is to reconnect with your innate design—your pattern of decision-making, your way of working, your natural gifts. When you “remember your genius,” you stop trying to fix yourself and start using what’s already true. The gremlin loses volume because you have a framework that honours your rhythm.

Note to self: Even when I feel not enough, I trust my inner knowing. What wants to be said and done through me has value. I can hear the gremlin and still choose to take up space. I can do the work that improves lives—imperfectly, honestly, and on purpose.

If that resonates, my Remember Your Genius Human Design report is a soft starting point. It’s written to help you see your strengths clearly and apply them gently—so your energy, voice, and work can align. No hype. Just tools you can live.

Much love,
