What is True Self?
Eckhart Tolle may say it best.
"You become like a lake. The outer situation of your life' whatever happens there, is the surface of the lake....calm, windy, rough, according to the seasons. Deep down however, the lake is always undisturbed. You are the whole lake, not just the surface, and you are in touch with your own depth, which remains absolutely still."
My Take?
True Self is the part of you that you never need to argue with. Soul. Your inner wisdom, creativity and compassion seamlessly connect with the universe. This place of 'absolutely still' is not static and dull but rather 'Vibrantly alive peace.'
What do you mean by a State of Grace?
Byron Katie
"A state of grace is when you believe that there's nothing more to do than what you're doing right now...in this present moment."
Eckhart Tolle
"When you say 'yes' to the isness of life, when you accept the moment as it is, you can feel a sense of spaciousness within you that is deeply peaceful."
My take?
I think we live in a state of grace when we stop fighting 'What is', let the NOW take us in. We are not waiting to see how something turns out because we are fully engaged in BEING.
COACHING PROCESS
What is Life Coaching?
Eckhart Tolle
"You cannot find yourself by going into the past. You can only find yourself by coming into the present."
Life coaching is the process of helping you find calm and clarity in order to choose ways to live your best life.
It is not about going backwards and fixing the past, nor fixating on the future.
By observing the here and now, you become empowered to better define your dreams, set priorities and take action based on who you truly are, not on who you think you should be.
Personal Life Coaches often have specialites. Do you have one?
I consider myself a personal life guide and coach as I help you find sound footing in life. My background as creative entrepreneur and 'outlier' serves me well in coaching others to be authentic and follow their own drummer.

What's involved?
Proven techniques help clear away limiting beliefs and self sabotaging habits that do not serve True Self.
We engage mind, body and spirit. We laugh...a lot.
The journey to move from a place of fear into a place of freedom truly begins with a single step.
Since no one can do this for you, we set a pace that suits your spirit and peace of mind.
Creating a compassionate, open, energetic and spontaneous partnership is a huge part of a successful coaching experience.
How long does the process take?
Some people simply want an overview...then they head out on their own.
Others like the idea of a guide along the way. Coaching partnerships may last 3 months to 1 year or longer.
Remember, you didn't arrive at this place in your life overnight. It may take some time to break through the status quo.
