About

When I first thought of the name Muddy Boots & Coffee, I chose these words because they represented the paradox many of us live and work with. Muddy boots = Doing. (Reality. Action. Practical). Coffee = Being. (Pause. Presence. Reflection)

You might be a business owner, a coach, or a high-performing leader but this is not a blog about business, coaching or leadership. What this blog is pointing to is something far bigger than any one of those things—the nature of human excellence, and what gets in the way of achieving it.

Drawing on my own experiences and experiences of the people I’ve worked with, the ideas and insights I share here apply to all of us, regardless of what you call yourself. They encapsulate a deeper truth about being human, and our innate ability to create, flourish, and thrive.

Here, you’ll find musings on presence, connection, the messiness of being human, and the simple truth that remains largely unnoticed today—the spiritual nature of the mind, and who we really are underneath the mud 🙂.

This space is not about shiny shoes or performance—just stories and reflections, and moments where something might land because it’s resonating rather than prescribed.

To get the most out of this blog, I invite you to put what you already know about the mind on hold and consider something new but strangely familiar.

If just one person reads something here that helps them navigate the busyness of life with more joy and ease, that’s amazing.

This is at the heart of Muddy Boots and Coffee.

I’m figuring it all out just like you are.

Thank you for being here.
