Climbing out when you’re knee deep in ShIFt.TM

Thursday, September 28th, 2006

On Tuesday 9/26/06, I was provided such a wonderful opportunity and gift through my webmaster, and friend Kristies T’s www.webmomz customer group, to do a Tele-Seminar for those who were interested in the topic:

“Climbing out when you’re knee deep in shift.”

There were 87 women who enrolled to listen. I was so blessed to be able to share some tips on how to serve these wonderful women in their patterns of shIFt.

There was a woman who was 55+ who was embarking on several ideas for entreprenuerial adventures and wanted to learn how to focus…which is a very common challenge for those of us with the Entreprenuerial Spirit! One mom, who was 68 years, who was a mother of 5 children, who also was a grandmother of 18 grandchildren. There was a 68 year old mom who was shifting into her “calling” of being a “Parent Coach”… based on all her experiences as a parent and grandparent. How wonderful is that?

Another divorced mother, of 2 young children, shared her fight to beat cancer and her shift in learning how to provide “self-love” to herself and realize “she was the gift in the shift” in successfully beating cancer…which I coached her on in a mini coaching-session in the Tele-Seminar. I so appreciate her willingness to share her challenges with this shift, as it is a common issue, not just for moms, but for all humans walking on Earth. Learning to provide our own “Self-Love” and live our life for ourselves, manifesting and living our heart’s desires and our dreams, on a day to day basis!

There was another woman who was 44, who was feeling a deep sense of loss due to some family members who had passed and she was struggling with shifting out of her depression, and was feeling a lack of “self-worth” and was struggling to move forward to build her business. By the end of the call, she had felt some upliftment and had a bunch of “sticky notes” with affirmations created to move her forward. That is so awesome! Just keep believing in yourself! We were all put on this planet to shine our light. THAT IS OUR JOB! IF… we cannot believe in ourselves, then WHO WILL?

Lastly, there was another woman who shared that “she had not been doing much of anything” since she had  first become pregnant…she was juggling many things, working 2 jobs and studying to earn her degree and taking care of their family home, while her husband worked many hours.

I quickly did my coaching “thang” and did my best to shift this mom’s perspective on her role as a mother, because it is such a common thing, that we women do as mothers, where we do not honor ourselves in our roles as “MOTHER”.

Why is that? Is it our society (here in America) where many of us feel we lose our “Value” as a productive or ambitious woman, when we make the conscious choice to leave the business or outside world to stay home to be a full time MOM to our children? 

Many mom’s feel a sense of loss, when they leave “working outside” to be home “full time” and take on the challenge of “working inside the home.”

I admit I was one of those moms, when I put my “career” aside to BE home with my children. But, the GIFT in the SHIFT was that I learned by BEing at home I learned to love myself, without requiring that “external validation of MONEY” to give me my worth. I made a six figure income, when I decided to leave my corporate job. I am so thrilled to share that, after I chose to BE HOME with myself and my family, for over 5 years, that I have no regrets.

My Co-Volution coaching business was “brewing” inside of me…I practiced my coaching skills on former colleagues, my friends and family… and I helped them with their GIFTS in their SHIFTS.

But, I made my choice to ”Take time for my life!” (which is a title of a wonderful book , written by the coach who inspired me to become a coach…Cheryl Richardson.) I highly recommend it!

In that “taking time for my life”, I was able to BE PRESENT and watch, not only my babies grow, but also to really experience my own growth which was a wonderful GIFT from me being “Knee Deep in ShIFt.” 

For all of you moms out there, be gentle with yourself. Your time to shine is NOW and as you shine your LIGHT, as a mom, you are making a HUGE difference in the world by being a mother to your children…loving them, nurturing them and teaching them. Make the conscious choice of teaching them things that you wish you were taught as a child! 

So, to all you moms out there and to those wonderful moms who loved themselves enough to ”take time for their life” to be on the Tele-Seminar with me and Kristie T, I thank you! It was an honor for me to share that time with all of you! I wish you all the best on your journey’s and always look for the IF in your shIFts and be thankful for your GIFTS IN ALL OF YOUR SHIFTS!

Much love and abundant blessings,

New Beginnings

Sunday, September 24th, 2006

Wow, we are just coming off of a huge SHIFT in the Earth’s frequencies that all occurred on Friday, September 22nd. There was a New Moon, A Solar Eclipse and the SHIFT of the Seasons in the Northern Hemisphere (where I live) with the Autumnal Equinox. 

Whether you are a person that is up on these Earth SHIFTS or not, they still have their impact. The impact is about “New Beginnings.” Here in the Northern Hemisphere, it is about reaping what we harvested all year and getting ready for the winter months. In old Traditions, this was the time for Thanksgiving.

So, I would like to give thanks for what I have reaped this year. In doing so, I hold the people in my thoughts that are those who I have shared my journey with, as a part of my Evolution of Co-Volution, coming into existence. There are many and you know who you are!

I have birthed something that has deep meaning to me, where I can help SHIFT people to experience and comprehend their LIFE’s GIFTS, at a soul level.

As a Master ShIFt coach, and the Founder of Co-Volution, I do not take this task lightly. It is “my dream come true” and my honor to serve those people who are drawn to me, to guide them while they are “Knee deep in ShIFt!” TM

So, as I move forward at this time, I hold my “Attitude of Gratitude” in my heart! Special thank you’s go to Sandra Allison www.berkanaconsulting.com  for all your support and creative genius in helping me birth Co-Volution into existence. You are awesome and I appreciate your support along my journey!

It is a truly a “New Beginning” for me and I feel blessed.

I look forward to ways I am guided to share the “Revolution into Evolution” through my Co-Volution business for all who desire my service!

With Heartfelt Gratitude,
