Do you know your WHY?

by | May 29, 2019

I have loved every moment of the three weeks I spent offline with my family. Camping, laughing and enjoying the beautiful surroundings of the French Vosges. No to-do’s, just flowing through the days as they came.

And even though yesterday I thought I wasn’t *quite* ready to start work again, I find myself so happy this morning!

And I know exactly why.

This work isn’t work.

I don’t have to follow someone else’s to-do’s.
I no longer have to try and fit into ‘the corporate way’ of doing things.
Nobody is asking me to be anything other than myself.
It’s the joy of being self-employed. But this is more than that:

This work is NOT soul-destroying in anyway. It is not asking me to look away from what is meaningful – for me and for others.

This work is steeped, drenched, infused completely with soul.

Coaching people, training our coaches, me talking to you, and even the money flowing in and out of the Academy. All of it is in service, on good and bad days.

In service of the deeper knowing and wisdom that everyone of us carries. And in service of the qualities of wholeness, healing and innovation that our souls crave.

Frankly, it’s the only way of being that makes sense to me.

And we all see how much this world needs it.

In the last months, I had been wondering about my Why. I am doing all of this because it’s what makes the most sense to me. But WHY is it so important to me?

And this holiday has given me the answer!

We cannot live in a world that doesn’t honour our souls longing. As a species, we wreck our world by denying it. And Life becomes so much better, brighter and wholesome when we do listen to the soft voice inside of us. The knowing in our wombs, our hearts, our gut.

That is the world I want to live in.

And I can.

By choosing to live my life in this way.

By supporting as many people as I can to do the same. And help them help others do the same.

In this way, we create a powerful and nourishing ripple together.

Away from being rooted in fear. Towards rooting ourselves in strong love. Love that doesn’t sit back to watch destruction taking place. Love that helps us take the steps we see as needed. For ourselves and for others.

What’s not to love about all this!

Do you know your WHY? Your big dream, the force propelling your forward? If you do, tell us! And if not, it’s a great question to live with.

Love that you are here! It’s a pleasure to share what I’ve learned in 25 yrs of coaching and teaching coaches since 2006. At the Academy for Soul-based Coaching, the team and me have reached 1000s of coaches, therapists and healers, helping them have phenomenal, embodied results.

On a personal note, I’m a bi-sexual, perimenopausal (read sleep-deprived) self-anointed Priestess who craves the spiritual as much as I do the practical, connecting seeming opposites in true Gemini style – and that is about all I know about astrology.
