The Fastest Way to Give Up Power...

“The fastest way to give up power is to think we don’t have any.” -Alice Walker

We have power to run our own lives, to choose how to respond, how to act. 

Power is first of all, knowing who you are, what you want, what you are good at, and expressing it unapologetically in the world.

Do any of the following thoughts ring a bell?

  • How can I be “good enough” at home and work?

  • Isn’t it selfish to ask, what do I want?

  • I won’t speak up first in a meeting. (And the men often do.)

  • I don’t know how, or if, I should ask for a raise?

  • I'm all over the place, unfocused, don't know what I want...

So what do we do with this concept of power and how do we get it back? 

It’s simple.  Ready? 

Here it is:

First, remember that the potential is already within you. 

Second, take time, create space in your busy life and figure out:

  1. Who you are ( what do you value most, how do you want to be, not just what you want to do, and for goodness sake, stop defining yourself by old conditioned beliefs that simple are not true)

  2. What you want

  3. What your greatest strengths are

Then go express all of you unapologetically in the world!

Psst… Don’t forget this last part… if you don't do it, people don't receive the gifts you have to offer. 

Remember, if you're growing and stretching, failure is inevitable.

Whenever you are ready to take your growth and success to another level, here are 4 ways to work with me:

1.  Bold New Boundaries, 2.0.  This master level program will start this Spring.  Please contact me for details or to apply.  

2.  Apply the Enneagram as your personal development map.  I'm now offering stand alone sessions even if you aren't a client.  The Enneagram is an incredible tool for looking at how you think, act, and feel, and it offers many strategies for growth. 

3.  1:1 coaching.  Tailored plans and time frames, depending on individual needs/goals.  3- 12 months. 

4.  Thinking partnership.  Do you have a business idea, a project, or an idea?  You want to strategize, brainstorm?  This is not coaching - it's focused and short term.  Email me with thinking partnership in the subject line, and we'll talk about how this may serve you.
