The Season of Mixed Blessings!
|
|
Perhaps autumn isn’t any different from other seasons, but this year I can really feel the dichotomies — new beginnings mixed with falling leaves, the comfort of rain soaked afternoons and the loss of sunshine. By nature, I am optimistic. I am also sensitive. So I find myself occupied with feeling both sides of any equation. While preparing for upcoming workshops, I am thoughtfully processing the duality of each lesson I have learned over the past 18 months. I am examining how it has landed in concrete form in various aspects of my life. In my opinion, there is no better time for reflection than fall.
But one thing I know for sure is that I am so looking forward to teaching and being with you all again. For me, it’s like getting ready for a massive group date! I will have on my best shade of lipstick and a new haircut…but probably wearing sweatpants as well. Because ‘tis the season for enjoying the best of all worlds doing what we love to do!
See you soon!

Leading from the Heart
|
|
Tracy is excited to be back teaching, especially as she knows that it is now more important than ever to lead from the heart. This is her “ikigai.” Being able to teach and connect with people, while helping them to increase their flow of energy and money, is her passion. She knows all too well how difficult this past year and a half has been. Like everyone else, she has learned some hard truths — about herself and the world around her. And from this, she has some epiphanies she plans to share, while co-creating a bigger collective wisdom with you.

Not all Goals are Created Equally
|
|
According to Irene Nizzero, not all goals are created equally. In fact, Irene who is a certified coach, teacher and presenter on themes related to human resilience and flourishing, very rarely uses the word goal. “I prefer just about anything else,” she says. Instead, Irene suggests effective long-term change comes from the patterns and practices that we establish along the way and that we continue even beyond the achievement of that goal. “Goal setting,” for Irene, “is really about adopting different habits and putting all of the elements in place that will make those new habits work and stick.”
