Each year I invest in professional development by attending some kind of in-person live event training.  I just returned home from an amazing 5 day business adventure to Sunny Ft. Lauderdale, Fla where I was surrounded by other heart-centered women entrepreneurs who attended the "BE EnergyRICH" marketing Retreat with Heather Dominick.  It was so refreshing to step away from my everyday routine and receive fresh perspective both personally and professionally in a creative space that uplifted my spirit and nourished my soul.

The philosophy of combining business with personal growth and spiritual principles is at the heart my coaching practice.  It's about tuning into intuition and being guided along my path of purpose, asking to be shown the way.  I've tried "going it alone" in my life, which only led to exhaustion and burn out from working harder not smarter.  I'm amazed how just the right opportunities and people showed up when I surrendered my fear and asked faith to lead me.  (Talk about adventure!)

Ever noticed how often you have to let go in order to grow so something new can present itself?  Maybe it's someone who drains your energy, emotional baggage including old wounds, goals that no longer inspire you, or "shoulds" that make you feel guilty.  During this retreat I became painfully aware of an old hurt and intense anger that I needed to let go of because it was holding me back and creating dis-ease within me. (Confession: I looked up and said..."God, haven't we already been through this?!)"  Yes, healing has many layers.  And the truth is I'm still working on it.   

How about you? Ask yourself right now...Am I moving forward, or am I standing still?  Am I open to learning and growing or am I stuck in comfortable misery?  

We Retreat(Comfort Zone), Respond(Learning Zone), or React(Panic Zone) to circumstances in our life.  It's easy to see from The Synergy Coaching Model that the best way to be focused, happy and productive is to respond from the "Learning Zone".  Which zone are you in right now, and What's one action you can take that would help you really thrive, not just survive, in your work and life?  You may discover there's a negative belief or old pattern you are ready to let go of too.

My wish for you is to be open to new and exciting adventures.  And as always, I stand here ready and willing to inspire you confidently forward as you break old patterns, stepping up in faith to fulfill your potential.

Believing in YOU!
