Life’s Journey

​

You are a being of limitless potential. 

 

                     Life is an invitation to become that potential. 

 

                                         To live your truth satisfies three innate human longings:  

                                                        - to create meaning, 

                                                        - to make a difference, 

                                                        - to be part of something bigger than self.

 

But … we rarely become what life is; we become what we learn life is. Instead of learning of our unique potential, we more often learn what keeps us from it – that life ‘should’ be a certain way, that we’re somehow not good enough, that we need to get things right, to achieve, to be socially acceptable, to not rock the boat. This leaves us isolated, confused, often afraid – all from unconsciously trying to be someone we’re not at the expense of who we truly are.

 

“It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. 

It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.”  ~ Mark Twain

 

The soft voice of your inner truth speaks to you, likely many times a day. It’s waiting to express itself through how you live your life. Yet your ability to honor that voice may have become blocked … by the loud, persistent voices of life’s pressures to conform to old lessons.

 

Despite what early lessons taught, you can’t create a new tomorrow by fighting with today. You create a new tomorrow by changing the thinking that created today! That takes practice. Like most, you may find it difficult to walk this path on your own. Those same old lessons tell you not to. And you listen. This is where a coach can help. 

 

As a reflective partner in your journey – I help you … stop for long enough … to be with yourself for long enough … to gain a felt experience of what is true … in this moment. Together, we will discover what matters most to you, then chart a new course into the territory of your unique truth. I’ll keep a torch lit on the path … so you can find your way home – to the you who has always been inside.

 

A Bit of Background

 

Where does your longing lead you? 

 

Those who seek coaching most often want either to develop new competency (perhaps effective communication, leadership, conflict resolution, collaboration, creating a thriving workplace) or find greater fulfillment (meaning, peace, joy, freedom, authenticity). 

 

You don’t need to know outcomes ahead of time, or how to get there.  If you long for something more, send me an email or give me a call; tell me what’s on your mind. We’ll explore … together. No obligation or cost for a first conversation; you get some good coaching and gain the perspective to choose your next steps. Coaching is a professional relationship with one intention: to help you live the natural creative potential inside you.

 “The veil that clouds your eyes will be lifted by the hands that wove it.”

~ Kahlil Gibran

​

I don't stress new skills, big goals, tough accountabilities, innovative processes or “systems.” You don’t need them. My coaching goes to the heart of the matter – the ways in which you’ve learned to see and think. Awareness of your thinking … in this moment … is the most powerful tool you will ever have for evoking change … in the next moment. Change is a natural product of awareness … plus, it’s easier, and more effective, than “trying to fix stuff.”

 

"Let us live one day as deliberately as nature, and not be thrown off track

 by every nutshell or mosquito's wing that falls on the rails."     ~ Thoreau
