Eclipse to Face the Future

Eclipse to Face the Future

This is it, the shift we’ve been building up to… 3 eclipses exactly in the middle of this year. June 1st, June 15th and July 1st.

This is our opportunity to let go of everything that is no longer serving us. And I mean everything!

It’s kind of like a 180 degree turn; the rudder of the Universe creating an ‘about face’. The question is… are we turning backward or forward? I choose forward. It feels as if we have been facing backward for years, even though we have been hurtling into the future at mach speed. Our focus has been on the past, trying to keep and maintain the status quo, broken as it is. Read More

“The Game of Humans Being – Endless Transformation Required”

“The Game of Humans Being – Endless Transformation Required”

Esther Hicks shared in a story through “Abraham” a couple of years ago, about an experience she and Jerry (her husband) had riding the rapids of the Colorado River. Upon approaching the river Esther was nervous about the intensity of the rapids and dangers associated with river rafting.  Although she was excited about this thrilling adventure, she wanted to know that they would safely finish the trip. Of course we can’t know ‘for sure’ the outcome of such an adventure ahead of time.

Abraham shares (I’m paraphrasing a bit), what if Esther had asked the river guide to take their raft, put it back on top of the bus and drive them to within a few hundred feet of where they are set to end the trip, put their boat back in the water and take them to the end… because they enjoy instant manifestation. The river guide might say, “Whatever you want crazy lady, but I thought you wanted a ride on the river!”

Oh, come on… Transformation!

Oh, come on… Transformation!

As we step into the expression of our own personal vocations and grow ourselves through our work, we experience deep transformation. I believe this poem resonates with so many people during this period of evolution. All I can say is, “wait for the wings!”

 

This Transformation is Taking a Long Time

 

I am so tired of not being what I want to be.

I am stuck and angry and talking to myself

wondering maybe it’s just that

this transformation is taking a long time.

Three Keys to Achieve Happiness in 2011

Three Keys to Achieve Greater Happiness in 2011

If 2010 was the year which left us feeling down and out, 2011 is the year to learn how to achieve greater happiness in a life that we love.

In a recent Dr Oz show, the “Intensati Workout” was featured.  The exercise trainer wore a t-shirt which said, “Live A Life You Love” as she demonstrated how to sculpt your body while strengthening your self esteem (http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/intensati-workout).

Oprah’s new OWN network has taken on the mission to provide positive programming which helps its viewers achieve their best life.   The network’s programming includes Cristina Ferrare’s Big Bowl of Love where Cristina Ferrare lovingly prepares soul food, Miracle Detectives, where the network embarks on a mission to find substantiated miracles, and Oprah Presents Master Class where people who have reached the top of their professions detail their journeys, inspirations, and happiness.

And my own mission at The Next Highest Version of You and Your Business continues to be assisting people with their soulful purpose so that they can build a life that they love and create happiness based on the expression of their gifts and talents.

We all understand intuitively that building a life around a soulful purpose is likely to increase feelings of self-confidence and joy, but what are the components of building that life that are most likely to increase feelings of happiness?

Ever Heard of the Push-me-Pull-you?

Ever Heard of the Push-me-Pull-you?

`

The Push-me – Pull-you is a character from the 1967 film “Dr. Dolittle”. I was enthralled with the animal that had a front end of a llama on both ends of its body! 

Of course, as a six-year-old at the time I was most perplexed by how in the world did it go to the bathroom?

The New Paradigm of Business Evolution and You!

The New Paradigm of Business Evolution and You!

`

An amazing experience the first weekend of this month with Barbara Marx Hubbard and Jean Houston has me fired up and on track to revolutionize business-as-usual. Perhaps I should say ‘Evolutionize’!

Barbara spoke so eloquently of our need as a society to truly embrace our purpose as vocation and move toward a new paradigm of heart centered business evolution for the greater good.

These are her words…

When Down-Time is Not an Option

When Down-Time is Not an Option

 

My personal / spiritual life and business have been merging in some extraordinarily profound ways this past month. I’ve had to move through some deep primordial muck in the form of limiting beliefs and fear of not being supported in the world. I know this not an experience unique to just me and that many of you have been going through your own personal journeys of having to claim an abundant life while actually experiencing anything but prosperity lately.

The paradox I have encountered these past several months as I’ve been laying a deeper foundation for my own business and engaging with some of the most extraordinary soulful service providers is that I have been able to create a financially successful business in a relatively short amount of time, while at the same time, my husband has been unemployed since January and we have since run through all of our back up savings – all of it. As his income was considerably more substantial than what I have yet manifested into our bank accounts we sit on the precipice of a bankruptcy.

Phenomenal Women Business Coaches

(for Men too!)

`

Did you ever see the movie “Phenomenon” with John Travolta? One night after celebrating his 37th birthday his character, George Malley walks out of his favorite pub and looks up into a star-filled sky. While he’s marveling at the magnificence he sees a ball of light hurtling toward him, growing in intensity as it gets closer until it seems to completely envelop him in a flash of blinding white which causes him to double over and reel from the intensity of it.

If Wishes Were Horses… Would You Ride?

 

 

Do you remember the saying, “If wishes were horses beggars would ride?” I remember playing that over and over in my head when I was kid, trying to reason what that meant.
