Healing the soul's voice

Lose the maybes and mights…

by

While working with a client today on her Clear Story (an essential part of your talk about what you do), she bumped up against an issue many women have. Her Clear Story draft was wimpy and unclear, because she used a lot of “maybes” and “mights” in it.

The Clear Story is a format I teach my clients that is designed to take their listener from a place they are stuck, to the possibility that they can have what they want by working with you, by changing a belief they hold that’s in the way.

When I got my Clear Story, it profoundly improved my marketing, and my ability to talk with people about what I do – and it does that for my clients, too.

I almost didn’t make it…

I’ve had the flu. For two weeks.

Usually, I never get sick. I’m not very good at it. This flu kind of came in waves, and I would think I was getting better, then it would hit me again.

I was scheduled to give a workshop at the FEM Talks Goddess Revival Weekend on Easter day. I was determined to be there.

I took the 2 days before to really stay down, be quiet, drink lots of tea, take lots of supplements, and PRAY!!

I made it, and even with my creaky, crackling voice, the Healing Your Soul’s Voice – Reclaiming The Voice of The Goddess Workshop was a favorite of the weekend for the women who attended.

It was also healing and energizing for me. My soul had called me to do this workshop, in spite of the logistics of bringing card making supplies, and having to cram the experience into less than an hour. My body was able to find the energy to answer my soul’s calling.Continue Reading

Do you let your voice out to play?

do you let your voice out to play

Being creative is essential to our success – in whatever we do. I wrote 2 articles recently about the process of creativity – Are You Crazy?, and The Art of Serendipity.

Here’s another crucial piece of your creativity that no one is telling you about: Your voice.

I’ve seen it over and over again with my clients. When you free up your voice, when you learn to play with your voice, and gain a greater range of self expression through your voice, your creativity sky rockets.

Your voice is an expression of your essence.
So, if you’re holding your voice back (which most of you are doing without realizing it), you’re holding back your essence. And you’re holding back your creativity, which is tied to freely expressing your essence.

Here’s what I recommend:
Read out loud regularly, especially from books or poems that are just silly and fun, so you can actually PLAY with your voice. 10-15 minutes 3x a week is enough. I love Dr. Suess books for this practice.Continue Reading

You’re not as good as you think

Yes, I acknowledge it. This is the opposite of what I usually tell you.

Most of the time, I’m all about getting women (especially) to understand that you are better than you think you are, so you can stop hiding out and feeling like a fraud. So you can own your value and the value of everything you have to offer, and we can hear that in your voice.

But there’s a time when you’re NOT as good as you think you are.

It’s when you’ve finally gotten yourself to get out there and speak. You’ve got some experience. You feel like you’ve got your story down. You’ve given your talk or presentation many times, and you’re getting some good feedback.

You think you sound pretty good, and you think you don’t need a speaking coach anymore.

Or, WHEW, you’re glad you never spent the money on that speaker coach you talked to. I knew I could do it myself, you say.

Ooops.

You’ve forgotten a crucial thing about your brain. Or, maybe, you never knew this – your brain is messing with you.

You don’t hear yourself accurately. Or more correctly, you don’t LISTEN to yourself accurately.

Are You In Partnership With Yourself?

by

Are You In Partnership With Yourself?I’m passionate about creating true partnership between men and women, so we can all be in partnership with our planet to create a world we can all thrive in.

So, I’m taking a course based on Riane Eisler’s book, “The Power of Partnership.” I’ve been blessed to work with her directly in the past, and she is an amazing woman who has been inspiring me since the 80s.

Our first module is about our partnership with SELF – which is the place we have to start. We can’t create true partnership with others until we become a true partner with ourSELF.

For me, this means accepting ALL of me – even the parts that seem pretty dark or that look like they’re still sabotaging me in spite of all my years of personal growth work.

One issue that’s coming up again is the masculine vs. feminine within myself, and in our culture. I’ve found a more integrated way of looking at them in Riane’s work.

There are a lot of authors and coaches now working with “feminine principles,” “feminine power,” “feminine leadership models,” and “feminine” _______ (fill in the blank with your favorite). They encourage women to tune in to their “feminine” instead of their  “masculine,” which has been causing them to push too hard, to burn out, to operate from a way of being that isn’t natural.

Let me be clear – I’m FOR the resurgence of the feminine. We need to bring the traditionally-considered-as-female qualities — caring, nurturing, collaboration, deep listening, going with the flow, doing without forcing, etc. — into businesses, our lives, and our culture. We also need to raise women up to true equal (partnership) status with men.Continue Reading

I Am Taking A Stand For You Today

by

I want to help you make more money.

I am taking a stand for you today and asking that you give yourself permission to open to

  • a deeper knowing of your value and the value of everything you have to offer that skyrockets your confidence
  • increased awareness and understanding of how to communicate your message so it GETS ACROSS
  • an improved ability to connect to your Higher Self and to Source
  • an expanded ability to receive anything and everything that you desire.

So you can

  • stop holding yourself back and start playing a bigger game
  • raise your fees
  • step up to the next level of success in your business
  • get on bigger stages (online and offline) and rock them
  • speak in your soul’s voice and step into your soul’s purpose

In order to increase your impact and fulfill your soul’s mission while making a great income.

I want you to take a stand that starting today, starting right now, you will not fail.

I believe that the Universe works miracles in many ways, and one of them is that we all have the opportunity to get more of what we want – especially when we bring our whole selves back into full, authentic self-expression.

So why do people struggle?Continue Reading
