So I went to look at my old blog posts about this verb, and I had to laugh. September is clearly the new January here, here and here. So many cycles end and then begin this time of year. For me, this year, there's the beginning of my new coaching career. I think I've always … Continue reading #BlogElul 23 – Begin

#BlogElul 15 – Change
Newsflash: Change is hard. OK, now that you've picked your jaw up from the floor at that astonishing revelation, let me elaborate. Having change thrust upon us is hard, of course. If somebody takes your job away from you, for example, there will be much anger and grieving and so on. Changes in circumstances can … Continue reading #BlogElul 15 – Change
#BlogElul 8 – Hear
Today's word is Hear. I just went back and read the other three Hear posts, one about the still small voice, one about finding the writer's voice, and one about hearing voices of panic in my head when September hits ... that was last year. What do I want to write about this year? Maybe … Continue reading #BlogElul 8 – Hear
Hadass Eviatar Coaching Has Launched!!!
Excited doesn't even begin to describe how I feel ...

The Manual
One of the main sources of pain in relationships is something called The Manual. We have these elaborate, usually unspoken rules about what we want other people to do so that we can feel happy. If these other people fulfill our expectations for them (which they may or may not know about), then we are … Continue reading The Manual
Starting Afresh
Today is my 53rd birthday. Yes, I was born on Valentine's Day. The joke in my family is that my father wanted to name me Valentina, but my mother always assured me that I was in no danger. Today I am starting afresh, as I have so many times in what is now turning out … Continue reading Starting Afresh
My Three Words for 2015
Here we go, my three words for 2015! As I mentioned yesterday, I've been doing Chris Brogan's Three Words project for several years now. Enjoy his words for the year and see what you think of the project. Maybe you'll want to join in. Love. My teacher, Brooke Castillo, says a coach has to have … Continue reading My Three Words for 2015
Who Wants to Help Me Practise Coaching?
So where have I been for nearly two weeks? In a whirlwind of activity! I've got my daughter's Bat Mitzvah coming up in three weeks, and just in case I thought I might be bored, I've signed up for an intense practicum with The Life Coach School. I'm totally loving that practicum, but I need … Continue reading Who Wants to Help Me Practise Coaching?
That Mythical Time
Well, I survived Rosh HaShanah and the Shabbat that came after it. I led services, read Torah, and helped keep things reasonably under control at our alternative service. I think people liked it. Now we are in the crazy week between Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur. These ten days are called the Ten Days of … Continue reading That Mythical Time
#BlogElul 16: Understand
Oh, my goodness, Rabbi Sommer. Understanding. That strikes home for me. One of the central tenets of Judaism is the concept of Beenah, understanding. In fact, it is so important that one of the major Hassidic streams, Chabad Lubavitch, is partly named after it. The name Chabad is actually an acronym for Chochmah (Wisdom), Beenah … Continue reading #BlogElul 16: Understand
