But there is this ever-present lurking fear that something is going to go horribly wrong, because you can’t possibly keep up this pace. If you feel constantly overwhelmed,…

An Invitation to Circle

By Vicky Kelly / 18 September 2025

Is it really that you don’t have time… or is it just out of your comfort zone?

By Vicky Kelly / 22 July 2025

Rethinking Capacity: A Mindset Shift for High Performers

By Vicky Kelly / 18 June 2025

“I’m at capacity.” It’s a phrase I hear from clients, colleagues, and friends all the time lately.  And, if I’m honest, I’ve said it myself plenty of times. Usually, it comes with an anxious vibe. A slump in the shoulders. Or a feeling of, “I can’t take on one more thing.” In our culture, being…

Breaking Free from the Status Quo

By Vicky Kelly / 1 May 2025
