What do I really, really want? This is a question I ask of my group coaching clients each week. They have to reflect and journal their answers to me. This week, I decided to write my own list, too. Putting it out there to the universe...let the conspiring to "make it so" begin! What do I really, really want?I want to make $150K annually from doing art and coaching.
