Partner & Collaborate with Change

The Power of Curiosity

 

Curiosity helps us partner and collaborative with change. Instead of fearing or resisting change, we can choose to commune with it. When we pay attention to shifts in our inner and outer landscape, we discover what wants to be revealed.

Don't take my word for it. Get curious! Question what is not working as well as what is working. Notice what possibilities show up or course corrections might exist. Sense where a new path seems to be emerging, unexpectedly.

Trust your instincts. When you begin to move in a slightly, or significantly, different direction, follow your inner knowing.

As you engage in this sometimes subtle, yet often dramatic, dance with change, allow yourself to feel uncertain and uncomfortable. Then get curious about what your feelings are trying to tell you.

May commitment and compassion be your constant companions.

When we courageously partner and collaborate with change, what we experience is better than we expected. Surprisingly, we are the change we have been waiting for—transformational and evolutionary in our lives, our businesses, and the world.

Most Mistakes Aren't Fatal

How Do You Decide?

If you feel nervous and have serious reservations about making a big decision, your reservations don't mean you are not committed. Your hesitation points to a genuine need to clarify your concerns and understand your nervousness.

Whatever is worrying you needs to be looked at and carefully examined. Listing the pros and cons of your decision gives you a better sense of real challenges and opportunities. Realizing that excitement often shows up as nervous energy can lessen your fear and unlock your clarity

Then, knowing the WHY of your decision can fully support you in taking the next steps.

Travel Transforms Leaders

Discover Your Inner Power

Travel offers us the opportunity to discover the richness of who we are, as our personas and roles collapse into the geography of places unknown to us.

Sometimes the leader in us needs to be in the presence of wonder where we experience the earth's natural splendor. There we can forget ourselves, and remember who we really are.

Like business and life, travel only transforms us when we are receptive to experiencing the unexpected and discovering new never-seen-before possibilities.

Forget Perfection....Play in Your Mastery

Time to Have FUN Being Who You Are



Time to Have FUN Doing What You Do Best

I've been noticing a significant shift among difference makers and visionary maverick leaders whom I coach. Major challenges they face in 2013 keep turning into unexpected experiences of sweet satisfaction and fulfillment

It starts with their letting go of mental or emotional resistance to the problem. This shifts their mindset and focus—freeing them to see what they were not considering as real possibilities.


Then for these innovative leaders their instincts, intuition, and expertise kick in. They begin to sense a way to navigate through or around and beyond persistent problems.

With renewed confidence previously stunned business owners, executives, and nonprofit professonals see one or several steps ahead. Trusting the next steps to reveal themselves, they stop needing to know and control every single step in advance.

Navigating the waters of change with their inner compass, they respond to solutions as they emerge.

Instead of struggling with perceived shortcomings, these savvy leaders leverage the mastery that already exists in them, their teams, and their organizations. With genuine ease and grace collaborations in mastery prove to be strong, flexible and funcreating exceptional results that exceed high expectations.

 

Now is Your Time

Acknowledging that you've reached a level of mastery might feel uncomfortable, boostful, or very unfamiliar. Get over it!

The world needs you and your mastery. So time to 'catch up' with yourself and the mastery you embody after years of practice—not to mention, trial and error.

You know, the strengths and abilities you've honed without having to pay close attention to them because they are expressions of your unique genius.

Yes, genius! That is...your exceptional intellectual ability, creativity, or originality. 

 

Time to Play in Your Mastery

 

Like my clients, the more you play in your mastery, the less stress you experience and the more productive you feel. Instead of depleting your energy, being in 'the zone' energizes your efforts—making it easier to thrive and enjoy significant outcomes.

Now, take a moment and describe where you play in your mastery. What desired results does your mastery create with ease and grace?

I'll go first. I play in the mastery of my naturally enthusiastic and non-judgmental way of being a seer, seeker and sage in the world. Clients feel safe—trusting me to guide them on their leadership journeys, so they delight in enriching business and life with their unique mastery.

What is Your Leadership Legacy?

Spiritual Tradition of Female Ancestors

Have you ever heard or seen something and in that moment you could feel the truth of it in your bones? Well, that's what happened to me when I heard the spiritual tradition of the moon in Aries described.

The words didn't just speak to me because my moon happens to be in Aries. They called my name, revealing in language my essence and soul's human journey.

So it is with deep humility that I share with you this incredibly accurate description of the spiritual tradition that is my female leadership legacy.

I belong to an ancient line that reaches back into the mists of time when people truly understood the inter-relatedness of all LIFE, when we were custodians of the energy of dynamic leadership, when we had an affinity for natural and native pragmatic mysticism.

The re-emergence of the Divine Feminine is a global trend in 2013 and beyond. Whether you are a woman or man, now is the time to embody balance, peace and harmony. Ask your female ancestors to guide and direct your leadership legacy in business and life?
