My mama heart is so full. ❤️

This past weekend, we had the absolute joy of celebrating the wedding of Madi and Willow and officially welcoming Willow into our family! 💕

It was such a beautiful celebration of love, family, and the beginning of a wonderful new chapter for these two.

And one of the most special parts? My son Ben officiated the ceremony, making an already meaningful day even more unforgettable.

But beyond the wedding itself, there was something else that made my mama heart incredibly happy.

Having our entire clan together in one place. ❤️

As your children grow up, build their own lives, and spread their wings across the country, you realize just how precious these moments become.

Everyone has their own schedules, responsibilities, adventures, and lives they’re creating. Getting everyone together isn’t nearly as easy as it once was.

So having our whole crew in one place, watching them laugh, celebrate, reconnect, and genuinely enjoy being together was a gift I don’t take for granted.

I found myself just soaking it all in.

The conversations. The laughter. The hugs. The joy of simply being together.

There’s something incredibly beautiful about watching the people you love most grow into their own lives while still finding their way back to one another.

And for this mama, that’s everything. ❤️

To Madi and Willow, may your marriage be filled with a lifetime of love, laughter, adventure, friendship, and happiness. May you always find joy in the little things, strength in each other, and a love that continues to grow through every season of life.

We are so happy for you both, and Willow, we are absolutely delighted to welcome you to our big, beautiful clan!

Here’s to love, family, and all the wonderful memories still to come. 🥂❤️

This week, I brought my son Eli along to a book signing event in San Francisco. He came to capture some video content for me—his zone of genius.

Everything was set.
Except… the books never showed up.

No books to sign. No books to sell. Just me, a quiet venue, and a crowd that came to celebrate.

And yet, what could’ve felt like a flop turned into something far greater.

Eli jumped into action and turned the moment into magic.
He captured powerful footage.
He created two beautiful assets on the spot.
He turned a quiet room into a creative studio.

But here’s the part that gets me:
That day became a turning point for him.
His confidence expanded.
His ability to articulate and share his expertise grew.
He didn’t just support my business—he elevated his own.

This is what I mean when I talk about harmonizing work and life.
It’s not balance—it’s blend.
It’s legacy.
It’s co-creating meaningful moments that serve not just our mission, but our families, our future, and the people we love most.

After the event, we wandered through Muir Woods and the Japanese Tea Garden—talking life, business, and dreams. Just being together.

The truth?
Sometimes things don’t go the way we planned.
They go better.
And the ripple effect stretches far beyond what we can see.

Here’s to building lives and businesses that go beyond just us.

xo,
Chris

The master at work.

When you get lemons- we make lemonade.

We had a glitch with our book delivery for the event- so Eli is making a sizzle reel video and graphics to share at our table with a QR code to the book.

There is always an opportunity to leverage any challenge.

And now we’ll have another asset to promote the book. 📕

This is my son Eli.

He is now my creative director in my business and stepping into entrepreneurship starting his own company.

I'm so glad I have some wisdom to share with him and get to watch him grow and thrive.

Because starting your own business is not for the faint of heart.

It takes courage and resilience and taking action on the right things- and letting go of the distractions.

And someone to cheer you on when things get wonky.

When I first started my business and started over after my divorce, I believed the secret to business growth was learning the right tactics.

The right funnel. The perfect execution. The next shiny something that promised success. Booking discovery sessions and overcoming objections.

And while strategy matters — it’s not the whole story. The energy BEHIND the strategy is what matters most.

When people were telling me that I had to be BOLD, use fear based marketing tactics and "close the deal", I decided to go a different way.

Instead I built a business foundation based on sustainability of my time and energy and peaceful, soul-led systems that allowed me to take Friday's off, be there for my boys soccer games, and even take the last week off each month to go on retreat, vacation or be the creative visionary that I was.

I stepped into my favorite ways to serve and sell which and always will be was based on integrity. Wellbeing. Service.

For me and many of my clients, growing a soulful and prosperous business is about creating from alignment, not exhaustion.

Leading with purpose, not pressure.

Serving and teaching in ways that bring me joy and exponentially increase the impact of others.

That shift back in 2018 is what inspired me to create and write The Soulful Abundance System® — a book for women who are ready to build businesses rooted in wholeness, not pressure.

If you're a coach, i'd love to give you a free ticket to the online workshop: The Soulful 6-figure Business Breakthrough.

Comment SOULFUL below and I'll send you the details.

Momentum 2025!
So much fun to lean In and learn from Kelly Roach on how to share our convictions and core beliefs that inform our decisions in both business and life.

One of mine is family and it’s such a blessings to be sharing this experience with my son Eli.

Community- collaborations and making new friends is such a gift of being at events like this.

PROUD MAMA MOMENT.

When you take your kids on vacation and they ask you “ Can we just buy the REAL FOOD ingredients to make cookies and bread instead of buying the processed stuff?”

And they made it themselveslves. This is when having the kids in the kitchen with you shows that it actually paid off. 🤣🙌🏻

Ummm- YES!!
