2024: Transformative!
I'm writing because I'm particularly inspired by my clients and what they're up to.
I'm also checking in to see that you're resting and being in action in equal measure as we continue to winter. Actually, cancel that. I say more rest than action is best right now. Spring starts earlier than we ‘think’. Congruence with the season equals greater health and well-being.
For those dreaming about how 2024 is going to be different, remember we are, in fact, on a continuum, so there's nothing new about January 1, or not more so than any other day. It's a day we give additional meaning to.
Well, alrighty then…let's use it!
The newness, that inspiration held by the cultural zeitgeist as you reflect on the previous 365 days…perhaps you feel an undeniable stirring, a body sensation that you're interpreting that it's time to get clarity on a passion project, start a business that's been on the back burner, or create a thriving business that is aligned with healing society and the planet.
Or, you realize health is wealth and starting at home is where you want to begin. I want to hear from you! I'd love to know your dreams, your vision, especially if you're looking to align your values and embark on designing our world to be a thriving place for all.
Listen, the time is now. Yes, you. Start now. And, you can still rest. They're not mutually exclusive. It's all in the how…And, why now? (I know you read and listen to the news…and look around you).
I'm not gonna be all doom and gloom here, but change is rapid and ongoing, so where is your power, your agency in how things go in your life? Think of being an ancestor, now. What would you do and not wait on any longer because the world needs you, your perspective, your voice, now.
You want to be a victim? Great, own it.
But this message is for those who say they want to not only be part of solutions, but to also design them. They know deep down it starts with interpreting their body as a wise guide. And it’s what makes you unique and why your voice and perspective is so crucial right now!
I have services for individual transformation that ripples out into the culture. The skills I offer are truly transformative whereby with practice and consistent iteration, your life becomes waay less stressful, reactive and you (re)align with your values as you go about your life.
You'll have mental and body shifts that connect and point you in the direction you need to go instead of where everyone else is headed (Psst, there's no ‘mindset’ without a body - you'll learn how to connect the two for even more effectiveness and ease).
This message is for you to use the prevailing winds to steer your own boat, your own life for 2024 and beyond.
I have practices that help you see where you’re abdicating your power, and in those moments of awareness, micro habits to have you step back into who you are (Psst, power meaning influence, problem-solving, to lift up and support). Let’s talk.
Because why are you here, at this moment in time? You're navigating work and your family and your life, there are a number of daily obstacles that you face. They are embodied - as body symptoms and/or organizational symptoms you've been noticing. You can have a set of skills that you can employ as you come face to face with each of these challenges to immediately implement, resulting in calm effective action and calm effective results? One result is the time-wasting avoidance tactics and habits i.e. binge eating, napping (to escape vs for joy), you transform them!
The best, effective, and frankly, the most efficient way to navigate ongoing challenges is to know HOW you’re exacerbating and how you’re smoothing out situations moment to moment. Yes, moments, not hours, days or years! I’m serious!
In all of my offers, I will teach you a set of skills. You will practice them immediately for quick results. However, they are not topical, quick tips or hacks. These skills have deep roots in how a human can develop and transform their perspective, mindset, their story, and actions by observing nuanced body language, signals and sensations that show you the path. Your body points the way.
There’s a book I highly recommend that mirrors my work, When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress by the great physician Dr. Gabor Mate. Repeatedly, he gives examples in the book, and in subsequent interviews that the body will say no through illness if you won’t. What's your body saying no to? What symptoms prevail? And if you want an effective way to USE and interpret them, let's get curious with a conversation.
As a Chinese medicine practitioner, I have a unique combination of skills to have helped thousands of people over the past 20 years to help them discover that their body is wise, that symptoms or sensations are teaching you about your situation, moment to moment. This training informs my guidance and life coaching.
But the most potent and honestly the most exciting part of my work is not my clients’ successes, and there are many….new jobs/more money, spousal and sibling relationships transformed, but they are taking this work to change their corner of the world and the people, planet inside of them for the better!
Yes, I’m a transformative leadership coach for social change specializing in developing entrepreneurs, teams or organizations that have a culture, mission, vision, business model and/or profitability issue which are all, in the end, human issues.
Yes, I’m a trained professional in Chinese medicine that has worked with thousands of clients and had the honor of helping those who really wanted more than symptom relief. They wanted to thrive inside their life no matter what their body or the dire diagnoses predicted. Because they knew something about their condition. We all do. You know something about your work or your business and why it’s not thriving in the work you know you’re meant to do. Just as my patients knew something about why their body kept getting sick, whether it’s small colds, the flu, aches and pains to bigger conditions.
It’s time to get underneath the surface and learn about the how of what’s going on with the obstacles you’re facing.
In other words, all that ails you, stresses or burns you out starts out as body discomfort or symptoms. I have a powerful and unique skill set to guide you where and how you are out of integrity with who you are, and then get back to your integrity in seconds. Keep practicing, and your world changes and we, your fellow humans and other species, benefit, too.
Transformation doesn't take time, healing doesn't take time.
It takes presence.
Schedule a conversation for curiosity, because it’s time!
