Life Coaching Session Introduction

 Heart to Heart, Soul to Soul.

About 4 months ago, I began my second journey into connecting with spirit and embracing the true essence of myself. On that journey, a strong push has come to me to reconnect with life coaching. The first round in providing this service occurred many years ago when we didn’t yet have smart phones in every hand. Much has changed and that means new learning for me which is great because I do love to learn.

When I envision my coaching practice, I see myself working with people who just know they must make a change from the inside out. People who are weary of the negativity around us every day. Knowing we can’t likely remove the negativity, we must find ways to be in it differently. Can we, can you do that? Be in it differently? Absolutely!

This is my mission. I want to explore with you the tools, attitudes, beliefs, assumptions and habits that work against you and release them. In truth, each of us must constantly overcome obstacles in our lives. We can view these obstacles as annoying, unfair or that the world is against us. Or we can recognize them as gateways that allow us to navigate and grow from life lessons. Taking away negative thoughts and making them into productive thoughts. There is nothing I can do about unfairness. There is everything I can do to learn from a lesson. 

What are the obstacles you face to obtaining your desires? Are they always the same ones, over and over again? 

One of my personal life obstacles has been that of being a people-pleaser. Perhaps you can relate to this. I was afraid of rejection and truly believed that everyone had to like me. The burden to accomplish that was so heavy and exhausting. Every time I focused on people-pleasing, I was playing out my fear of rejection. The lesson of this obstacle of people-pleasing is that every time I did that, I failed to meet my own desires. I even failed to let people know the real me. That’s a huge price to pay to feed my fear. A wise therapist one day asked this simple question, and it changed everything for me from that day forward. The question…Who ever told you that everyone has to like you? My mind was blown. I had no answer. No one told me that. I told me that. And it’s a big fat lie. Such a release occurred in me from then on. I may not like rejection, but I’m no longer afraid. I don’t have to please people at the expense of my own well-being. Wow! It felt and still feels like freedom. Learning this lesson gave me freedom. 

What are your obstacles to freedom, peace, joy, success and happiness? What are those obstacles trying to teach you? What will be your reward for this learning? These are critical questions for moving forward in life and they need to be answered.

(For this message, I was aided by the use of various Oracle Decks.)

If we turn a blind eye to the lesson in front of us, what are we really doing? Delaying? Hiding? Avoiding? That life lesson can be postponed but it will not leave until it is learned. I was in my early forties when my obstacle of people-pleasing revealed my fear of rejection and allowed me to become empowered to replace that fear with thoughts like…I’m pretty darned okay just as I am. I am fabulous and if someone doesn’t like me, that’s their issue, not mine. Reward?? Freedom. My blind spot kept me in the dark for decades because of an emotion called fear. We must face our fears and not take refuge in avoidance.

Good news! Be assured that the situation you struggle with today will improve. Mine did and yours can as well. We will explore the ways in which your current strengths, knowing, connections and beliefs will work for you to bring peace and happiness to your life.

When we are living in peace and happiness and that’s not to say blissfully unaware of the world around us, but inwardly managing the effects of the world around us, what would then be possible? If nothing held you back, what would you be able to manifest in your life?

The freedom I manifested allowed me to become more successful in my career and to find a relationship based on love and honesty. It hasn’t been all puppy dogs and roses, of course. There have been other obstacles teaching other lessons along the way. I believe there always will be. Now, though, I see them as challenges and never feel like a victim. The moment we set foot in victimhood; we sink into a pit of negativity that does it’s best to take us down and keep us there.

If you had control and could effectively manage your thoughts and feelings, your beliefs and attitudes, how do you suppose your life would change? Our Emotions are Energy in Action. Whatever we emote, we feel, we bring, we convey to the world. What emotions will best reflect your wants and desires? Which will bring to you the life you wish to live? Looking back at my example, the emotions that supported my ability to move forward were freedom, relief, lightness, joy and especially the recognition that I am good enough and even better than I ever realized. Can you just feel the lightness rise as I say those words? I feel free, relieved, light, joyful and I’m awesome. Yep! Good stuff.

My approach to spiritual life coaching includes structured learning and inquiry but allows for fluidity. We are each unique and need to be seen and heard in order to learn, change and grow. Sometimes, too much structure can get in the way of how your energy needs to flow. If you choose to receive coaching with me through my video posts or one-on-one, you will always be acknowledged and appreciated for exactly who you are. No should's, no judgments…just empowerment and love.

As a life coach, the tools I use include my training as a certified life coach, life experience, self-learning, meditation, connection with spirit, use of oracle cards, pendulum readings and the diving rod. I connect with my own spirit team including my guardian Archangel Uriel and with your team as well.

I will start with learning about your wants, desires and known blocks. I will want to get to know what you most value and I will do readings with you that are in part designed by you, your higher self and spirit to accomplish what you need to move forward. Your essence spreads like roots seeking water. Discovering your essence is key. 

Have I discovered my essence? I believe I have, and I feel I live it every day. Am I still learning and growing as a person and in my soul? Absolutely. It astounds me just how much more there is to grow on. Once learned, having a method or system to do that, to recognize obstacles and learning opportunities and how to manage them will allow you to take care of your growth on your own.

Moving forward often requires that we Create Lofty Goals. When we Reach Higher, we go higher. When you seek out and find your aspirations, you elevate your life. There is nowhere else to go but forward.

It is through this work, which is hardly work at all, that you strengthen connections in your life and bring mutual support which is a necessary component to success, abundance and freedom. Give support, receive support.

As the saying goes, Life is an Adventure. Be confident that you will get there as you are more powerful than you know.

You are on a path which has already begun. Each and every day lends itself to our individual evolution allowing us to transform and make ready for the next stage in both your physical and spiritual life.

I am here to cheer you on. And you are the one to make it happen. You become the conqueror of your destiny. You can overcome any obstacle life throws at you. My guides always say to me when I’m hesitating, procrastinating, doubting…Just Do It and you know you can accomplish your goals, desires, dreams and feel sweet success.

You’ve been planning. You’ve been patient. And now the timing is perfect for you to take your next step. How? What might that look like? Whatever it is, just do it. You might want to read inspiring or educational books, watch videos, try out spirit connection tools, talk with friends or family, get a spiritual reading, buy some oracle or tarot cards, a pendulum or divining rod or a myriad of other choices. It doesn’t really matter as long as you use this time to take a step forward.

JUST SAY YES! The only person who can truly hold you back is you. And the only person who can truly bring you forward is that ‘other’ you. Which ‘you’ do you choose to work with. Just say yes to moving forward.

I want to thank you for hearing me out and taking part in this reading. I feel uplifted from just creating this message with my angel team. Please let me know in the comments if anything resonated for you.

Archangel Uriel suggests we next dig in deep on the topic of KINDNESS. He and my whole angel team have much to say on kindness. See you then and in the meanwhile, be kind to yourself in every way possible.

    Why Ascension Feels Ordinary Before It Feels Extraordinary Have you ever noticed that change rarely announces itself? There’s no flashing neon sign, no dramatic soundtrack. Change is often quiet, creeping in little by little, until one day—you realize you’re not the same anymore. That’s what I call the Subtle Shift Model of growth.

You’re hungry, sore, or frustrated. Progress is so slow you may wonder if it’s even working.

  The Spiritual Side of Self-Care: How Reading Becomes a Ritual Self-care isn’t always about bubble baths and candles (though, let’s be honest, those are pretty wonderful). Sometimes, self-care is as simple and sacred as the books we reach for and the way we invite stories into our lives. For me, reading is more than just entertainment—it’s a rhythm that feeds different parts of me: body, mind, and spirit. Over the years, I’ve realized that I’ve built a little threefold ritual without even meaning to. 🌙 Bedtime Reading – A Soft Landing for the Soul Every night, my Kindle rests on a little rigged-up stand (my “engineered serenity” device). I settle in with something light and fun, like LT Lucas’s Children of the Gods series. Sometimes steamy, always entertaining—exactly the kind of reading that lets me slip into relaxation. I rarely make it past a few pages before my eyes close, but here’s the beauty: the Kindle turns itself off, never loses my place, and tucks ...
