BLOCKED TO BRIGHT

Does any part of this sound like you? 

You start the day on a low. You feel annoyed when you wake up, thinking about all the things you have to get done that day, so you struggle to lift yourself out of bed to start the day. 

Even when you set an alarm to wake up early, you reach for your phone and get stuck scrolling until you absolutely have to start getting ready. 

You transition into a high - You get into work and check a couple items off your to do list and feel good about yourself. 

You have a conversation with a coworker that makes you laugh. 

But then the lows come around again. 

You feel your energy wane in the afternoon and then come the ruminating thoughts - about work, life, and you worry about what you’re going to do with your time after work, thinking about going home to a space that feels lonely or boring or unfulfilling. 

So when it does come time to head home for the day, you end up turning on the TV and zoning out or scroll on your phone again for hours. 

Even though it feels stimulating, it doesn’t feel restful or meaningful. 

Maybe you experience another high while hanging out with friends or spending time with the people you love, and you feel connected and warm. 

But going to bed, that dread creeps in again, knowing you’ll have to ride this rollercoaster of emotions again the next day. 

What's going on: A lack of awareness of your body’s unique processing method means that you’re pushing away from difficult emotions, numbing yourself to your body’s cues, and you feel your difficult emotions dragging you down. Avoiding the tough stuff means you can’t fully access states of peace, joy and bliss.

You think about when you were a kid and you believed you could do anything and wonder where that feeling went. 

You assume that life and reality got in the way. 

But you feel these nudges every now and then when you get to do something that really brings you joy and it makes you question - why can’t I have more of this in my day to day life? 

Maybe you have an idea of what you would do in a life unburdened by limits. 

You’ve even taken some action to start on that path, like getting a certification or a degree or taken a course, but “reality” kept you from pursuing what you want to do more regularly. 

Maybe other people have called it out in you too - you open up about what you might want to do someday and they say, “you would be great at that!” but you still don’t take action. 

Or maybe you feel lost, admitting to your friends, “I don’t even know what I like to do.” 

You spend your time leaning in to what other people want to do and allowing your friends or your partner to make plans for you, because you find it difficult to make even a small decision like where you want to eat or how you want to spend your couple hours of free time in your day.

What's going on: You don’t have a clear picture of the stories playing out in your life based on your limiting beliefs, you don’t have a clear vision for what the future could look like, or you’re not sure about action steps to make meaningful change.

Maybe you have one or two major therapeutic experiences, like a retreat or a breathwork journey or a therapy session that cracks you wide open, but then when you come home, the magic goes away. 

You don't feel like you can trust yourself to know how to continue accessing that magic on a day to day basis. 

Maybe you don't believe that this feeling is even available to you on a daily basis. 

Or you've set goals for yourself to "meditate everyday!" or "journal every morning!" but you don't actually follow through with the things you promise to yourself. 

You feel like you SHOULD have figured it all out by now, but it feels like a lonely process when you're trying to implement all of this alone. 

You want to feel seen and held in a loving, compassionate container but challenged to go beyond the limits you set for yourself. 

Maybe you’re new to personal development and you need someone who understands you and allows your unique needs to guide our sessions. 

Or you’ve worked with coaches in the past and they felt either too rigid or too “woo woo.” 

You want someone who can operate at the intersection of science and spirituality.

What's going on: You are experiencing your own self-guided wisdom in short spurts, but you need someone to hold you accountable, cheer you on, and point out your unique gifts when your self-doubt is clouding your judgement.
