We are now living in a world that we would not have recognized 2 years ago. Along with these changes comes both new challenges and new opportunities. It is up to us what happens next on this great planet Earth- Gaia. The Hopi Indian saying, “we are the ones we have been waiting for”, makes more sense now than ever before. In this podcast we will explore ideas, thoughts and feelings that are arising today in this fast-changing world. We will explore why its important to really understand why you are here on this earth at this amazing time, we will look at why it is more important than ever to Align Your Free Will with Divine Will and how to fully Activate your Life Force. I truly believe that we are here together – at this time, for very specific reason and that each of us are here to make a major contribution to what we are about to witness, and experience unfold here on earth. Let’s come together and explore these essential questions, explore resources available to us and support each other – as we enter this great time of Awakening together. I look forward to sharing the journey with you.

    What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do.

    I believe that life speaks to us often and sometimes gently. The wisdom lies in listening and knowing when to move. In this great world, we create and innovate daily as we express ourselves and lead; often without thinking in automatic pilot. But what happens when you have no idea of what to do next? We are watching the old world. The world we thought we knew well, crumbling around us. For many I speak with, this brings a lack of clarity, a lack of certainty- a sense of not knowing. And for many there is now a void – from believing we know, to a feeling of not knowing. But a whole new group of people are forming. People that know that we are part of something bigger than ourselves, and our being alive now is not a coincidence. They also know they are a part of forming the new and are now needed. Is this you? Don’t give up. Don’t be concerned if you don’t know what’s next. No one does. But many, many are now awake and aware of the fact that it is time to choose possibility and creativity in our lives. They are okay not knowing and are waiting and listening, in faith. In this podcast we look at three phases of uncertainty and how to traverse them to create a life of meaning and fulfillment. The journey we travel together looks at the phases of not knowing and the gifts that each phase holds. By the end you will have a path to walk that comes with promise and possibility. At the end of the podcast, I leave you with 3 life transforming questions to consider in this fast changing world.

    Designing Your Life Consciously- a beautiful co-creation.

    When you consciously design your life in a co- creative way, life becomes vibrant and far more real. Flow and ease become available to you – doors open that you never expected to have open. So, what does designing life co- creatively mean? And why must the design, path or dream that we hold for our best lived life- now need to be co-created? This concept will make sense if you believe you are a part of something bigger than yourself. I mean open to guidance from source. I think we have been bred and raised to be so independent that many of us are lost ships at sea- not connected to any greater power or supportive source. Call it God, Source, a Higher Power. Call it what you wish, more than ever before, I am aware that it is more important than ever to listen-- in the still moments for guidance and to create from the messages, intuition and guidance that we receive. We will receive it- if we listen.  In this podcast you will get a true understanding of why you are not alone and how guidance is always available to you and how to receive it. You will also have a chance to experience how to co- create in your own life and what the benefits of a co- creative life are. The big takeaway:  Always Remember that co- creation and support are available to you at each juncture in the road. Just remember to ask!

    Why Live Well? You Could Choose Not To. I figured this out.

    So, should we live well? It really is a personal choice. I believe that you and I have a choice, and that is more important than ever to choose wisely. Join me as , in this podcast, I will explain why making choices to live well is so important today and how to do so. Part of living well is finding our light and when we find our light and shine it; from within - out ward to the world, the world totally shifts. It receives our light, and this is the beginning of a massive change on this planet. We are all connected. To live well in this whole new world, I believe we need to find our spark, our inner light. Knowing what creates joy in our life is the starting point. I have been personally making some choices in my own life around balancing the darkness with light. I have come to realize that I must now make a choice around where I am placing my attention. I sense a demise in the world. A coming apart to make way for something new, something different. Do you see or feel this? I have decided to take my life back into my hands- to protect my energy and to make choices that allow more peace and a renewed spark to arise in my life.

    Do You Still Have Your Spark for Life? Or are you feeling flat? Time for a reset.

    Summer has arrived. How are you? Has your year so far, allowed your spark or passion for life to fully shine? I just had a private conversation with myself and would like to share my experience with you in this podcast. In this conversation, I surprised myself and I wondered if you asked yourself the same questions- if you too would be surprised? We have passed the mid-point of the year, and it has been a fast one! These days life has taken us down paths we have never before been – asking new levels of trust – faith and resilience from us. Some have been tarnished by these disruptions. Many are taking the opportunity to reset- recreate – to redesign their lives and to reflect how they want to live. They see these days as an opportunity to show up in life- in this whole new world- in a whole new way. Throughout my life I have always believed that, if I live connected to my heart, do what excites me and always include what I value most in each day, that life would always easily carry me to what is right and next for me. This year has been different. To live well and consciously, it has taken more. I have been tested to hold close my Divine Connection- my deepest love for life and beauty – more so than ever before. Join me as I share my personal answer to these important questions, as I support you to connect more deeply with your spark for life.

    Moving from Chaos to Bliss. Using Chaos to Make Powerful Change.

    It’s time to look towards the light. If transformation and change breed uncertainty, how do we create a good life amongst all this chaos? My week has been wobbly, filled with deep questioning, lots of quiet and a deep sense of uncertainty. What am I doing? What am I really doing? Usually, I get on with things. I keep listening for guidance and create what’s next. This time was different. I totally stopped. I heard nothing. There were no “next steps”. And in this deep listening state, much was revealed. In this podcast I share my experience of not knowing. Of Contemplating and of hearing louder than ever what I needed to hear to move forward in my life. I share four guides that moved me forward from a place of deep uncertainty. Uncertainty holds precious power. What do you most need to hear now? Take time to stop and listen. The answer might surprise you.

    How Are You Feeling? Your Answer Specifically Informs the Quality of Your Life.

    How are you feeling these days? Creating a deep connection to life involves understanding how we feel- in life, about life and about our vision of what is possible going forward. When we take time to understand ourselves- through what our feelings have to teach us, we can more easily take in all the richness that surrounds us. Our feelings are barometers. They carry information. Sometimes it’s easier to not listen to them. But they will always catch up with us and, like most lessons, persist until we stop and listen.  Feelings carry a richness, a picture and a roadmap. Contemplation is one way to make sense of life and to connect with our deepest self. Taking time for quiet, personal inquiry and just to experience peace is more important than ever as the world gets louder and deeply tests us each day. I have been asking myself recently, what can I do to feel more complete and at peace in a world where on the surface, I don’t find harmony and a world that I don’t often agree with?  Join me for a deep look at how we feel sets the pace for the quality of life that we live. The choice is ours – the time is now.

    Finding Opportunities in Today’s World. Moving Forward Joyfully.

    When I stop and think about it- I'm being tested now. I have some very specific habits that need to change in order for me, to fully walk my talk, live well and make a difference- in a world gone mad. If things feel uncertain and you are noticing lots of chaos around you- you are not going mad, but consider that it might be time to ask yourself, “what role do I have in all of this”? And “what do I want to see in this beautiful world instead of all the chaos”? Can you be part of a positive outcome? If you are here with me at the Awakening Podcast you are most likely a visionary. And I believe that we are the ones to create the change so needed now. Join me in this podcast as we look at moving from being apart of the chaos, or observing it, to using our precious life force and energy to excitedly create the new – both in our lives and in the world. In the podcast, I share with you seven keys to redesigning your life, the seven that I have committed to personally, in my life. The time is now; we are the ones we have been waiting for.

    Creating What’s Next in the Midst of Uncertainty: Living Well in Challenging Times

    What must be alive in your life to live well in these uncertain times? Once I answered this question for myself- everything freed up and started to flow for me in my own life. As humans, we empathize deeply because we are connected-so what hurts you hurts me and vice versa. This often immobilizes people from creating and innovating when times become challenging, but these are the days your creativity and engagement are needed more than ever. If you think about it our concern for each other can freeze us from being helpful, from moving forward and from creating the contribution we are here to make. So, how do we proceed to live well, contribute, stay gently tuned in to what’s going on in the world and to not fall in and become immobilized? Join me for this podcast as I explore 5 key realizations that I needed to discover to begin to excitedly live well- in these deeply uncertain times.
