Ready to nerd out on coaching and behavior change? I'll pop into your inbox every 10 days as your penpal who's here to chat about:
The inside scoop on coaching and behavior change. Insights about what I've learned from helping thousands of people change their lives over the last 15 years, all in plain language that doesn't require a psychology degree to understand.
Tools you can use on yourself. I mentioned it's nerdy, right? You'll get actual frameworks, questions, and experiments you can apply to whatever you're working on changing in your own life. No motivational fluff or inspirational quotes around here.
A powerful question to sit with. Every issue closes with a coaching question worth reflecting on. The kind that doesn't have an easy answer and is designed to surface something meaningful.
PS - There's a real human on the other end of this business. I will never share or sell your personal information. I fully respect the space in your inbox and I love a digital boundary - If you don't want to be on my list, feel free to unsubscribe.
"You send the most thought provoking emails. I've read and reread this one numerous times. The way you framed the topic helped me think about my next phase differently. Thank you!"
"I just wanted to tell you that I look forward to your emails! I save them to read with my morning coffee and I look forward to getting one every 10 days!"
"I needed to hear this more than anything today. Your perspective helped bring clarity to my situation and decision process even though you had no idea what I was going through."
"Wowza, Sonja! This is powerful!! And something I have never heard talked about that definitely needs to be. Thank you!"
"This is such interesting stuff. I thought of a few things my past self initiated that I may want to rethink. Good food for thought! Thanks!!"
"Well, if this isn't exactly what I needed to read today...THANK YOU! I'm going to be thinking about this for a while..."
Why insight alone doesn't change behavior — and what actually does
The difference between adaptive and maladaptive perfectionism
Why we stay loyal to decisions past the point they serve us
Bloomscrolling vs. doomscrolling, and how to spend less time online without feeling deprived
What "it's too late" is really masking (hint: it's usually grief)
Why part of you wants to change and part of you wants to stay the same
I totally get it — We've all subscribed to an email list and then regretted it after getting spammed!
Here's what The Behavior Edit Newsletter is NOT:
A daily email digest you'll immediately archive (I hattttte those)
A newsletter with a whole bunch of ads disguised as content (zero sleazy sales tactics here)
Toxic positivity and hustle culture dressed up as wellness (ew, yuck, gross, no)
Generic self-help advice you've already heard (boring)
Here's what The Behavior Edit Newsletter is:
The kind of email you actually open when you see the subject line because it's relevant to your life (I've been told it sometimes it feels like I'm reading your mind!)
A quick read that makes you think differently about something, even when you didn't know you needed to (intrigued yet?)
A real person, writing like a real person, about things that actually matter and can help you improve your life (idk about you, but I've had enough AI-slop for this lifetime)
