Quotes I have reinvigorated my business. We all need support as we have our own story. We do everything for each other and together. The uplevelling has made our relationship sweeter. Everything I do, he’s my first thought. Marriage has intensified the commitment in me. My level of independence relaxed. Initially it was for the growth of business and articulating my clients message. Now it’s spiritual expansion. The Universe is my business partner. The Universe’s currency is energy. People don’t really know what we should be doing. There is no shortcut or quick-fix. Do what you love as you’ll be doing it a long time. The duality is always there. Everything is energy. Am I operating from outside in or is my inside influencing the outside? Life is so friggin short, so fragile. I’m growing into myself as time goes on. I feel things, I feel people, I feel the situation. Nothing is random. Everything is purposeful, everything is energy, everything is life for more life. This podcast has always been about shedding light on dark places. Instead of calling ourselves leaders, we’re calling ourselves coaches. The Universe requires 100% participation. Part of what gives the complexity of me as a coach is lived experience. There comes a time when certain traumas are personal. Bali was my most courageous, most clear, most free version of myself. It is a reminder of my rawness. I leave my personality behind and be as naked as I can for myself and others. I’m still a work in progress. There’s a lot of love and meaning in myself now. I feel very revealed.
