FOR YOUR CONTEMPLATION
It is possible to experience love without angst.
I had, in my early childhood development, conflated angst and fear with love. And so I was hyper vigilant in my connections with people whom I got close with, and it would literally drive me crazy.
Why the arts & humanities are essential tools for the future of business.
I spent 12 years working in the financial industry, and the fundamental thing that is missing is more people with a background from the arts & humanities.
Your lack of eloquent language is not the problem, your judgment is.
And it doesn't matter how eloquent you are, people can feel your judgment. And judgment feels like shit.
Feel (and hear and see) the vibration.
According to all the books, our sensory input can be compartmentalized. According to my experience, this is just a symptom of someone's desperate need to control something that is difficult to understand and is largely still a mystery.
You are not too much. In fact, the world needs MORE of you.
We all know we can't see our own blindspots, but also what we can't see is where we've hidden really awesome shit in our shadows because someone once responded negatively to us being our fullest expression of selves.
A three-day course does not a coach make.
Just like a three day leadership course does not instantaneously make you a leader, neither does the two hour module in it on coaching make you a coach.
It's time to share your gifts with the world.
Do you find yourself sitting, waiting, perhaps impatiently, to be discovered? Hoping, praying, for a chance to share your gifts with the world?
How I kept my power by learning to feel everything.
I thought I had it all figured out because I could "turn off" my emotions, but what I didn't realize was how much damage that unconscious choice was causing me, my relationships, and even my career.
What we now know about spankings and the freeze defense mechanism.
The freeze defense mechanism has horribly detrimental, but also very silent, effects on the body, our health, and the way we interpret our experience of the world around us, and spanking contributes to that.
The neuroscience behind why mindset coaching is not enough.
Your capacity to change your attitude and the way you speak is a purely intellectual process. However, until fundamental real-time feedback and profound somatic awareness-oriented change takes place, the core driver for the autonomic response remains unchanged.
Being an HSP is not a free pass to victimhood.
While there is plenty of media out there about how people like us — the empaths of the world — need protection against energetic vampires, I have a different perspective that I would love for you to consider.
Fall in love before, not after, meeting your mate.
When I start by falling in love, I have no choice but to look for all the evidence I can find in the world of its existence. And as it turns out, love really is all around.
How to disintegrate the divide between humans.
We think it's about power, and access, and titles and whatever. And so when we don't know how to be understood, we feel defeated. But it's actually not about being understood. It's about the individual human.
You can be yourself and not put your career at risk.
I'm here to tell you that your life is not at risk in you embodying the magnetic and influential presence of a fully expressed woman at the office. But, your ability to make a powerful impact on the world definitely is.
What's your currency?
Currency as we know it is changing. It's out of alignment with nature to have "debt" and to "lend" -- literally nowhere in nature does this model exist -- and this reality is quickly coming to a head as technology rapidly grows, faster than we even realize is happening.
Live purposefully to reveal your purpose.
Here's a secret: whatever you're doing right now, even if it's not what you wish you were doing, is a part of your purpose.
Your life as a devotional practice.
Very little comes from things to which we do not commit ourselves. The whole notion of "practice makes permanent" is not a coincidence, but rather, a fairly accurate conclusion of a moral AND scientific investigation on whether lasting change comes from anything other than full commitment.
The taste of alchemy is far sweeter than the taste of relief.
I wish I could tell you I was exaggerating. I wish I could tell you the spiritual life is as sparkly and magic and pain-free as the internet makes it look. This is truly what it's like when you're living your own path and no one else's.
What if the ocean feared low tide?
Adversity is to human life as low tide is to the ocean. It is what grows us, nourishes us, helps us grow wiser, and teaches us who we are.
As above, so below.
What you see around you is a reflection of what is inside of you. If you don’t like what to see, shift your insides, and watch your outsides change.
