  • Going all in with your soul’s work
    Oct 3 2023

    This episode is expanding on a piece I wrote about how the theme for this year emerged - it's all about going all in when it comes to our soul's work and we're doing it workshop style!

    In this episode I riff on...

    • How going all in can feel edgy, dangerous and the important re-frame that can allow us to expand.
    • The role that our past traumas play in going all in.
    • An important message that emerged about going all in which is key to taking the pressure off.
    • I take you through some workshop style inquires that peel back the layers to identify where you're being called to go all in, the support you need and more.
    • Plus, I talk about going all in in a way that's regenerative and doesn't subscribe to grind culture, exploitation and extraction.
