>> Creating the Conditions <<
Â
Yesterday, I had the honor of sharing what I know with two deeply inspiring and engaged groups of women -Â
- one as I facilitated an exploratory workshop about using mindfulness as a means for connecting with and leading from one’s most authentic sense of self
- the other as I dialogued with several cohorts of peer-mentorship groups for women and nonbinary leaders about the importance of shifting from a place of self-development to one of self-discovery
One thing that came up yesterday (as it often does), is the question of how to do this inner work - and not just how but, our curious minds want to know, what are the steps… how can we accelerate the process. We want the play-by-play, the checklist, the roadmap…Â
And while I wish I could provide them with this information, I can’t. It’s not that there isn’t a process. It’s just that the process isn’t linear nor is it prescriptive. And no one’s process looks like another’s.Â
But, the good news is: we can learn the tools needed and then create the conditions for inner transformation and evolution.Â
What does this mean?Â
Broadly, it means two things:
- creating the time and space for self-noticing and increasing the capacity to be with the intensity of discomfort (seated meditation practice)
- committing to an ongoing relationship with other’s in a similar work or on a similar path of self-discovery (group coaching)
As Douglas Rushkoff says, “we can’t go it alone, even if we wanted to. The only way to heal is by connecting to someone else.”
If you want the tools and the community - I’ve got some great options for you kicking off in the new year! Starting in January, I will be on-boarding Small Group Coaching cohorts as well as adding a new Meditation & Coaching Group.Â
The application for Small Group Coaching is live and if you’re interested in learning more about or joining my newest Meditation & Coaching Group, please email me directly.
With Love,

Weekly Meditation & Coaching Groups
These groups support ongoing, awareness-based work in connection with meditation practice.
Through awareness-based coaching tools & practices, we also have the chance to begin to undo the unconscious parts of ourselves that have us operating in a state of unrecognized reactivity to life.
The support and presence of a group of committed peers helps to guide individuals in personal growth and transformation.
This is a committed practice that meets weekly on an ongoing basis. Though we commit to 12-week sessions at a time, the value of the work continues the longer you stay in a group. The expectation is that you make a commitment to show up each week as fully as possible.
No prior meditation experience necessary
