Satisfaction and success are not the same.

Satisfaction and success are not the same.

Satisfaction is contentment with a job well done, but many successful people are not satisfied. At Seven Stones, we believe this could occur for various reasons, but when you combine success and satisfaction, you are on the road to a great life. To achieve satisfaction, you cannot focus on just one area of your life; you must be able to manage and thrive in all areas. However, you cannot fix everything all at once. Setting the right goals and breaking them down into the right tasks with an appropriate timeline is the true value of a coach.

Meet Vicki

Vicki has built an exceptional career and a meaningful life because of her ability to pragmatically achieve her goals regardless of the obstacles. As a former finance and operations executive, Vicki has a depth of experience understanding how plans, actions, and accountability lead to bottom-line success. As a mentor, parent, and coach, Vicki has seen that if people are accountable to another person vested in their success, great progress and even transformation can occur.

Struggling is part of the process.

No matter a person’s age or status in life, everyone gets stuck. Whether relationally, financially, physically, or mentally, no one goes through life without challenges and obstacles. Unfortunately, many people struggle with a lack of ability to break down goals into actionable steps and hold themselves accountable. We all make mistakes; how quickly you own up to them and take steps to correct and mitigate them in the future is a direct indicator of how successful you will be in life.

A Triumphant Transition

Life transitions are inevitable. They happen in all areas, our health, relationships, where we live, and often most disruptively, in our professional lives. New careers, job promotions, layoffs, retirement, or even selling a business can feel like earth-moving shifts. Some transitions are carefully planned. Others arrive uninvited. But whether planned or unexpected, how can we shift from simply surviving a transition to navigating it successfully?

What’s Keeping You Up at Night?
What’s Keeping You Up at Night?

Running a business can be incredibly rewarding, but let’s be honest, it can also be incredibly stressful. As a business leader, owner, or CEO, your workday doesn’t always end at 5:00 PM. And sometimes, your mind doesn’t clock out at all. Instead of resting, you find yourself staring at the ceiling, replaying the day, worrying about cash flow, team dynamics, or that client who hasn’t called back.

It's Scary to Be Vulnerable
It's Scary to Be Vulnerable

Let’s be honest, being vulnerable is uncomfortable. It makes us feel exposed, like we’ve let down the polished guard we work so hard to maintain. A nagging little voice whispers, “Are you sharing too much?” or “Is this too personal for a work setting?”
