Posted on May 21, 2015 by catelabarrecoach

Because I BELIEVE I Can

Posted on October 3, 2013 by catelabarrecoach

I gave up hiking for the better part of two years. Not because I wanted to, but because my body wouldn’t let me. There was no “believing” that could overcome the reality of the near impossibility, yes — even if … Continue reading →

Posted on July 12, 2013 by catelabarrecoach

As I made my way around the block this morning, I passed a young woman who was running — red top, pink shorts, orange shoes. Totally cool. I wondered if she was running to train for a sport she plays … Continue reading →

Stretching

Posted on June 17, 2013 by catelabarrecoach

It’s a Pilates Reformer. Looks like a torture device, I know. Last week, I went back to Pilates after too long a break. This happened through a series of events that I believe were a conspiracy by the universe for … Continue reading →

The Need for Community

Posted on June 11, 2013 by catelabarrecoach

I’m really clear that I need community, connection to people with a common interest, passion, love. This is a recurring theme in my life, as I’ve been in and out of “groups”, “organizations” and “cliques”. The need to belong has … Continue reading →

At Arm’s Length

Posted on May 15, 2013 by catelabarrecoach

Baby Steps my A**

Posted on November 14, 2012 by catelabarrecoach

I’ve given up referring to “baby steps” as something “small”. Picture this: A toddler-in-training, pulling herself up on the legs of a coffee table. Phew. Wow, that was hard. Taking a step while holding on. Venturing to let one hand … Continue reading →
