Too much advice is palliative. We are left entertained but just as stuck, perhaps only gaining skills to better absorb the angst of stuck-ness. Gurus inspire us to take unrealistic leaps that might achieve one big dream, but would leave all our other life commitments and loved ones in peril. Kids would not get picked up from school, home loans would default, and our dependent people or organizations would be left abandoned while we gallivant off to go all-in on the idea of the moment.

What if reality-minded people like you and me could get our hands on a series of small, achievable bite-sized tasks that would daisy-chain together to build a bridge from here to where we want to be? What if this process of achieving big, transformational life change was sustainable, so we would welcome returning to the task day after day? What if the steps were safe, so that if we experiment a bit, we have the choice to back up and revise the plan when needed? And what if this process infused a fierce energy, the type that is required to finally push past our uncomfortable edge and take on the transformational changes that heretofore have eluded us?

This is the way of KindEdge.

I’m excited to announce that efforts toward continual improvement on the impacts of International Women’s Day have yielded a policy change that will have a measurable impact. Instead of the prior one day per year recognition of women on Earth, we are updating the annual March 8-only event to rather include all days from March 9 through and including March 7 annually. This is a 36,300% improvement!

The KindEdge Process

A path forward in small steps

These KindEdge bite-sized steps enable you to experiment while there is still a safe landing if you need to change your approach. Transformational change does not require you to throw caution to the wind, risk your finances, or give up current responsibilities. But by taking these small, visible, and documented steps, you begin to see change happen IN REAL LIFE. Each step is another plank in the bridge between you and your big goals.

Guided worksheets

Guided worksheets enable you to take action anytime, anywhere, even when your brain is drained.

You will gain momentum as you see visible progress.

Core concepts and practices

With every action step you learn core concepts that fortify the foundation for change. Achieving just one big goal in your life requires that you start to think—and respond—differently to everything from planning and commitments, to prioritizing health, to relationships, to boundaries. You’ll become an expert on exactly what behaviors and mindsets you need to guard your goals against the warring demands of life.
KindEdge is for you if:
N
You have an image trapped in your mind.

You can see yourself working on the thing that really matters to you, in a rhythm defined by you.

N
That image remains frozen simply because you are a good person with many responsibilities.

You have a dream, but you are not going to disappoint your family, or fail your employer or your community.

Your life, it seems, has already been promised away.

N
You’ve sought advice from self-help books and inspiring gurus.

But when you try to insert that inspiration into real life, real life’s chaos hijacks even the best-laid plans.

“After two decades running in circles, I finally began to treat myself as my own change management client.”

I had read every inspiring guru book.

I needed real life actions that I could pile-drive through any chaotic day.

I realized the steps I applied to myself were a repeatable process anyone could use.

KindEdge is painless progress.

You need a way to move the progress peg forward every day, even when there seems to be no time.

I had detailed excel spreadsheets squeezing my dreams to tiny time blocks on Sunday nights. But even then, those hours would get hijacked; I’d end up in an emergency room with my child after a soccer tournament weekend left him injured.

After many re-starts, I refused to remain a victim to life’s chaos. If I could build a simply structure to make just one decision and one action in a few minutes amidst the chaos, I was making progress in real life, rather than remaining a victim. If the worksheets I created for myself could guide me to just one decision and one action, I could get the next meeting with my banker on my calendar, and suddenly the progress peg moved forward in real life.

I finally achieved real progress by treating myself as my own client, breaking massive change into bite-sized guided decisions and actions.

ACTION: Get past the inertia of inspiring self-help books. And silence any self-care that is training you to endure the frozen bad. GET TO THE GOOD. Today.

KindEdge is a series of bite-sized actionable steps you can squeeze into the gaps of any busy day. Each task is another decision that secures yet one more plank on the bridge you are building to your alternate ending.
