What’s your version of living a fully expressed life?

What’s your version of living a fully expressed life?

Having just returned from a delicious 5 days in Phuket, Thailand surprising a good friend for her birthday, I had the opportunity to take time for myself and refresh my connection to CoreTruth and appreciate all the experiences which have led me to this very moment. I was able to feel the power and value that lays in presence to an even deeper degree within and felt to share these words with you.

 

For those of you who have been wondering what it would be like to jump on board for some CoreTruth coaching and experience your fully expressed life with authenticity and clarity of mind- this post is for you.

 

If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines and observing the world passing you by…

 

If you’ve sat with an inspired idea or project or business but haven’t moved forward on it for some reason…

 

If you are waiting for a breakthrough to happen or something to magically appear…

 

If you feel trapped on the hamster wheel of life doing something that “gets you by” but you know there’s more inside…

 

If you are jaded by past experiences of traditional personal development fads and techniques that give fleeting results…

 

If you have a deep yearning to experience a life of more colours and aliveness…

 

I know the suffering that comes with choosing mediocrity. Playing in the “safe zone” certainly allows you to hide but over time, you feel that urge for more eating away on the inside, that undeniable rise of energy that yearns to be expressed in the world.

 

After working intimately with clients for the past 14 plus years, I have the privilege of seeing the patterns of self-sabotage and “not good enough” stuff and the commonalities there for us all when we are not being conscious. I have experienced how convinced we can be by the thoughts and emotions which flood our body and keep us small and limited.

 

I am not there for the conservatives or ‘play safers’ as there are plenty of great coaches and mentors who offer excellent work in a conventional way. I am appealing to those who for them, playing safe and living ‘the norm’ is not an option. You are willing to try out new ways of turning up in life, even if you don’t know how to do that yet. All that is required is that you recognise that feeling inside which says “YES” , even if you feel some fear or trepidation.

 

All it takes is to feel the space I am coming from. What does that mean? It means to realise that if you are even reading these words right now, and if you find yourself being drawn to any of the posts I share on Facebook or LinkedIn, that you already resonate and feel the space I am coming from.

 

In my coaching partner program you will have access to:

* as much personalised one-on-one coaching as required to support you to live your version of a fully expressed life
* a fortnightly online group coaching call so that you share and gain insights from others working in their truth.
* weekly meditation training tuition which is designed to anchor you in the present moment and integrate your session work.

 

If you find that your experience of your clarity and certainty is a fleeting one, that your head comes in and doubts your feeling and you fall for it, or you have let another six months go by on stepping up and taking action on what you love, the time is now.
I would like to hear from you so we can explore if there is a fit for us to work together.

Come to the edge

Come to the edge

The quote below has been the theme of the day, (nay! the week!)in my sessions with my clients and it has been an absolute privilege to bear witness to the layers or fear that have been falling away from each and every one of them in their own way.

 

I rarely share anything about my clients and wont be sharing any names but today I feel like it’s time to highlight some key things which been happening for them as they “come to the edge” despite the inherent fear that comes up when you choose to ‘turn up and mean business’ in your life and to be fully expressed.

 

They are finally taking action on what they have always known they love but have been afraid to make real…

– There’s one who is about to have an exhibition of her art on July 4th, unashamedly sharing her work after years of hiding in insignificance and making excuses.
– One who is growing his business and moving it into an office bigger than he could have imagined last year, only to find that he is already filled to capacity and is now expanding to take on a whole new office in another town.
– One who has stopped taking anxiety and depression medication after many years when he realised that he was taking them largely because it was what he had learned from his parents and he now can be his own person and make his own choices.
– another who has stopped hiding behind his relationship for fear of confrontation and loss and is finally stepping into the limelight of his career and has discovered that teaching and sharing his passion with young, rural students makes him come alive.

 

I share these as an illustration for those of you who feel the pull inside to live a fully expressed life of truth. As a way of saying that everyone who makes that choice WILL and DO have fear come up and that it’s all part of the process. But for those who are really over waiting to realise themselves as powerful and alive and want to live who they are AUTHENTICALLY and with INSPIRATION, don’t wait for that fear to go away! For my clients, they realise that when they practice what we work on in our sessions, they NO LONGER NEED the fear to go, in fact they USE IT to propel themselves towards what they love.

 

Are you waiting for the fear to go before you take the leap?
Are you ready to know yourself beyond all the fear?
Are you willing to take a leap and show yourself just how magnificent and capable and unlimited you truly are?

 

If the answer is YES! Then maybe I’m the one to push and witness you flying. Please private message me to talk about partnering up at this ‘edge’ in your life. : )

 

“Come to the edge, he said.
We are afraid, they said.
Come to the edge, he said.
They came to the edge,
He pushed them and they flew.
Come to the edge, Life said.
They said: We are afraid.
Come to the edge, Life said.
They came. It pushed them…
And they flew.”
-Christopher Logue

What if…

What if…

What if today, you paid attention and realised that everything that turned up in your life was actually here to support you? Every conversation, challenging, confronting, joyous or otherwise was for that purpose. All of it perfectly orchestrated to expand and evolve your awareness of who you are- your capabilities, your innate wisdom and powerfulness AND also your blind spots to these things.

 

How about we be mindful of this as much as possible today so that we can make more authentic and informed choices from the infinite energy that we are and not from the perception we hold of smallness and ‘not enough’ mentality?

 

I wonder what would happen if we keep our focus on this and give our attention to ourselves and how we feel about the choices and actions we are taking rather than concerning ourselves with what others are doing? Just for today, or even part of today…. and see what happens.

 

Happy Tuesday gorgeous people : )

Are you a ‘know it all’ ?!

Are you a ‘know it all’ ?!

I became aware of this at a meeting I attended with some really gorgeous and outwardly successful people this morning. The theme I noticed was that they KNEW what was true for them and what would support them to step up and live a fully expressed life….but they just didn’t follow through on that knowing.

 

I see this a lot with people who have been to a lot of courses and seminars or who have read a lot of books on personal development.

 

It’s one thing to go about gathering lots of knowledge and a WHOLE other thing to be willing to integrate what you know.

 

You see, this is where your head convinces you that just by KNOWING something intellectually, that will be enough for things to shift in your world.

 

One of the most powerful things we can admit to is NOT knowing. When we put down our fragile pride and become vulnerable (the opposite of what our head wants to do) and open, then we start to ‘get out of our own way’. Along with dropping the need to be right, this is one of the most powerful conscious practices I know.

 

But why don’t we get out of our own way??

 

Yes its scary at first, your head will likely go a bit crazy as it grasps to hold on to the illusion of safety and control but gradually, with support and persistence, you will start to see how your life opens up in the most surprising of ways. How by getting out of your own way, (a.k.a getting out of your head with all it’s thoughts and stories) you create space to allow your soul to show you what you DO know.

 

So, it pays to not know sometimes, UNTIL YOU AUTHENTICALLY DO, through your own experience. It pays to be humble in your awareness. One very powerful saying shared with me by one of my mentors years ago and I am still present to in my life is:

“Never underestimate the power of being underestimated!” or in other words, there’s no need to draw attention to yourself or try and prove you ‘know it all’ to anyone when you truly know who you are.

 

Someone who KNOWS – and I mean truly KNOWS in an integrated, embodied way doesn’t ever need to draw attention to themselves and build themselves up.

 

So, are you fed up with things not shifting in your world? If you are stuck in your head and often hear yourself saying “I know” but now realise that perhaps you don’t really, I would love to hear from you.

 

I am expert at supporting people to speak the truth to themselves and get to their own inner wisdom, certainty and clarity. My 3-month Coaching Partner Program will support you by challenging you to walk your talk, not just talk your talk and show you how by having some humility, things start to flow. Sounds good? feel free to private message me so we can talk further and see if there is a ‘fit’ for us.

What are you waiting for?!

What are you waiting for?!

Why are you waiting for the discomfort to be so intense before you do something differently?

 

If you ponder on that for a moment, you will see that it is often so true. People wait until the circumstances in their lives get so uncomfortable, so unbearable that they almost back themselves into a corner and they don’t feel like they then have a choice.

 

Why do you wait to have a courageous conversation? Why wait to go ahead with that project or business you dream of? Why put off something that you know deep down is true and feels right?

 

When you realise the universal truth that life is- and can only ever be- lived in one place, the here and now, then things can really start to shift.

 

So, what are you putting off? and have you asked yourself why? Why are you biding time for the right moment?

 

In my experience of working with people I see it all the time. People telling themselves that it’s not quite the right time, they don’t want to speak the truth in case they hurt someone’s feelings, they need one more qualification, another few thousand in the bank etc BEFORE they can do, be or have ‘X’.

 

All of these are excuses! No wonder there are so many people who feel such a deep sense of powerlessness about their circumstances when they continually and habitually keep putting things off. And when you realise why you play games with yourself this way, you will (metaphorically) kick yourself!

 

For anyone interested in truly living an authentic and true path and who is tired of this limited ‘delay game’ THE TIME IS NOW. The truth moves through you in each moment, moment to moment, but are you listening to what your truth is?…and are you willing to act upon it?

 

I am interested in working with people who have had enough of avoiding and putting off stuff in their lives and who are ready to tell themselves the truth. I am welcoming a further 5 people to join me for my coaching partner program where you will have both one-on-one focussed support AND a fortnightly online group-coaching session to really forge a fresh way of turning up in your world.

 

How about you seize the moment which is NOW and send me a message so we can explore the option of partnering up.

 

Breaking the cycle of anxiety and overwhelm…

Breaking the cycle of anxiety and overwhelm…

Do you feel like you are always running to catch up with yourself?

 

Do you fill up all your available waking hours with something, anything that prevents you from being with yourself and your thoughts and emotions?

 

Do you experience anxiety, panic or overwhelm?

 

I can remember a time when my life felt very much like that. I gave myself no space to simply BE and get to feel what was true and what satisfied me.
Life isn’t much fun when you live in that anxious state feeling like life is being dictated to you and is out of control. It leads to all kinds of uncharacteristic compensating behaviours, feeling numb and disconnected, compromise and exhaustion. Often it felt like I was going crazy!

 

Believe it or not, all of these experiences are huge and valuable signposts on a path of waking up and getting wise. They are ways to alert you to know that you are not feeling aligned and congruent in your choices.

 

But if you don’t read these signals truthfully, you continually compromise on your truth and make choices that are not authentic choices and end up believing there’s something wrong with you- that something needs fixing, changing and improving about who you are. This focus ends up keeping us further and further disconnected from our core and so repeats the cycle.

 

It’s vital that you give yourself space to get some perspective and be supported in getting really honest with yourself. I know after years of working with exceptional coaches and mentors that continual and regular ‘truth telling’ allows you to ​clear​ the space in your head to allow clarity and calm to be restored. This centred and powerful space is what I call your CoreTruth.

 

I ​have expertise in supporting people who experience anxiety, overwhelm and depression. When you are flooded with overwhelm and panic or not feeling in alignment and congruent within yourself, I offer a safe haven or refuge for you come back to a place of peace and certainty. If conventional approaches such as counseling and psychology or even medication haven’t got you to where you feel you would like to be, then I invite you to contact me now so ​we can connect and see if what I offer can support you. I welcome your inquiry.
