𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄? 𝗔𝗖𝗧 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a method that encourages you moving through difficult emotions, putting your energy into healing rather than dwelling on negativity. In my water courses, I use ACT methods to guide people from fear to free-flowing. Metaphors are powerful in ACT. For example, imagine your thoughts as a waterfall. Instead of standing under it, step behind it and observe. This helps you see thoughts without being overwhelmed.

Soft Tender Certain I was talking to my life partner the other day. We talk about our multi-level connections. Each with their own flavour, we celebrate them in their unique and rich texture. We indulge in them, encourage them in each other. We were exploring a track that we both love called Saman by Olafur Arnalds Here it is: https://lnkd.in/eXGW6M89 We went through the explorations of the lilt of the rhythm, how it was uncertain at times, then became sure of itself, how the melody was fluctuating between uncertainty and commitment. Then my partner said three words together and it stopped me in my tracks. She said it's soft, tender, and certain. Soft. Tender. Certain. Those three words together underly so much of the energy required for connection. They seem like a paradox right? How can I be soft, tender, and certain at the same time?! It almost seems like I need faith, to make that the case. When we are seeking change, we know we need to go into the unknown, and face hardship and challenge. Ultimately we are reckoning with that inside of ourselves; challenging and disrupting the status quo that our physicality, and our mentality, have relied on. We have to draw upon our spiritual confidence, our focused intention to the point of realisation in the future, our commitment to bringing the change through with the energy of our essence, not getting too lost on the journey, tending the seeds of the heart speak. Soft. Tender. Certain. Cultivates so much of the energy needed to navigate these sometimes turbulent waters. Finding a safe harbour within oneself. Cultivating goodness in the different bodies of experience. The word Saman means together in Icelandic. I think he nailed it. #lifecoach #transformationallifecoach #transformation #coach #changemakers #changemaker #thegreatturning

Are you paranoid about sharing your network with your connections? 🔎 We all know LinkedIn's power lies in visualizing your network. But do you open your network to your first-degree connections? Your decision to make your LinkedIn network visible or hidden can have significant implications for your professional strategy.   👍 On the positive side: Transparency fosters credibility. Allowing others to see your connections shows you’re open and have a network of reputable professionals.  If and when you work in a team, visibility can encourage mutual connections, fostering opportunities for collaboration and referrals. And making your network visible demonstrates your influence and reach within your field, which can strengthen your brand.   👎 On the negative side : You may want to protect your professional relationships by hiding your connections from connected competitors who might poach clients or colleagues (the real reason most of you do). Additionally, making your network visible might lead to unsolicited messages or spam for your contacts, which is not what they are waiting for.   📇 When sharing your network, the decision hinges on your professional goals, industry dynamics, and comfort level. What’s your approach—open or private?   Are you paranoid and scared or just cautious?   #linkedin #networking #socialselling

𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗲? 𝗡𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿! 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲 So, I was running my mastermind group. One of the members was struggling with stress and burnout. Our other participants facing similar stress raised the question: how do you manage stress while keeping your business growing? 🔥 Many small business owners face burnout symptoms like exhaustion, lack of focus, trouble sleeping, and anxiety. It’s tough when business closures, increased costs, and supply chain issues make everything harder. Did you know that over 60% of small business owners report experiencing burnout? 😓 Burnout feels like ongoing stress, both in your body and mind. You might feel tired all the time, forget things easily, or have trouble sleeping. Anxiety and feeling overwhelmed are also common. If you’re experiencing these, it’s time to take action. Here are some tips to help you manage and avoid burnout: Get Organized: Tidy up your workspace and systems. This reduces chaos and makes tasks easier.   Schedule Everything: Plan your day carefully. This avoids feeling overwhelmed by too many tasks. Outsource Tasks: Delegate some work to others. This frees up your time for important planning. Learn to Say No: Don’t take on too much. Prioritize tasks that truly matter.   Take Time to Relax: Make time for breaks. Resting helps prevent burnout. Recognizing and managing burnout is crucial for your health and your business’s success.

If you're an ambitious person, highly driven to create something brilliant with your work, you are probably working towards something great in the future. And chances are that working on that ambition brings you some enjoyment too. But while creating a big future means some hard work right now, sometimes we get so caught up in that story that we give away more than we need to and miss out on enjoying our life as it is happening. We get so busy and so focused on being productive that we forget why we started doing what we do in the first place. I'm just starting the 11th month since launching my coaching and consultancy practice, helping leaders and business-owners to get unstuck, clear the fog and start working smarter and more stepped back so they can enjoy their work and their life. My offer is strong and I've helped some incredible people to transform the way they lead and run their businesses. I definitely don't have my sales and marketing working on repeat yet - there's still often a scary moment in the month where I'm not sure where my pay is coming from yet. I'm the only person in my business so everything is down to me. And my business is supporting my home-educating family so my partner doesn't have to work and can spend time with our 7 year old son. But despite all that, I've decided to test out a 4 day working week. Why? Because despite all the fear that I feel of not having enough, and all the stories in my head telling me that "busy = successful", I'm determined to enjoy my life right now. And if I can't find the courage to do experiments like this, how can I support my clients to create the time and space for joy in their lives too? If you're ready to make some radical changes in favour of your life right now, not in the future, get in touch. I've got a new 4-week program that you can start mid-November and complete before the holidays and which will set you up for the 2025 you deserve. ✉️ DM to connect and find out more ♻️ Repost to share with your network 💬 Comment below if this resonated

What if the patterns holding you back could be transformed in just one hour? When Laura approached me, she had a vibrant energy and passion for life, but managing it felt like a battle. As a world-traveling documentary filmmaker, she carried old patterns that left her feeling overwhelmed and stuck. Through our coaching, everything changed.

Here’s her inspiring story, shared in her own words, below. Give me just one hour, and I’ll help you clear the deepest, most hidden blocks holding you back. Step into a new identity where success, peace, and abundance come naturally. Are you ready to transform your story? Let’s connect.

***𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫?*** Today, I want to share another #thriftstoretreasure with you: a book with compelling artwork by Jan van Oost, including this intriguing image of a Venetian mirror partially obscured by a dark silk blindfold. 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐚 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞, 𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ𝑠. And I want you to think about where you may be blind to your own power. It's not uncommon. Most fast-brained humans have been told to 'tone it down', to blend in rather than stand out; dimming their brilliance to avoid making waves. Today, let's focus on those forgotten strengths. No idea what they are? 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠: => What are you completely unafraid of? => What tasks do you accomplish with an ease others can only dream of? => What do people constantly admire in you? => What would you change in your life or business if you didn't constantly take other people's emotions into account? => When have other people looked to you for guidance? It's time to remove the blindfold. 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞. And then? Take that power and use it to make this crazy planet a slightly better place. #coachingtips #power #blindspot #mondaymessage #giftedadults #managingthesmartmind
