Helping Build Better Brands and Better People
Change is the only constant. Yet, we resist. This resistance causes our own stress and suffering. So, how do we stop the stress and suffering? What if I told you,
“You can choose to eliminate your suffering and choose the reality you desire.”
You’d sign up for that. Well, if we can look at life through the lens of opportunity, we will see the potential.
The answer is simple, choice. We can choose to shift our perspective, we can choose to take action, and we can choose to be happy. Just because the answer is simple, doesn’t mean it’s easy. It takes courage and resilience but can lead to a joyful life.
When we choose to take ownership over our circumstances and shift our perspective all we see is potential. When we choose to take responsibility for our reality around us we begin to heal. This process allows us to improve our relationships, communication, response to emotions, and our overall well-being.
Better Brands
In business you face the same choice. Do you resist change or see opportunity? Being a founding team member for a digital healthcare agency I learned quickly that change was our friend. As a startup, we could have complained about challenging circumstances. Change didn’t care how we felt about it, it was going to happen regardless. So, we embraced it, and this mindset gave the agency an edge. This mindset can give you an edge as well. We understood that nothing is impossible. Challenges were opportunities to grow ourselves and allowed us to flow with the market.
The last few years we have faced pressures from all over; a new ‘normal’ caused by a global pandemic, technological advancements, customer privacy data, economic and market pressures, as well as political shifts. Change is constant.
Now I am helping brand teams identify the challenges opportunities in front of them. I teach brand teams how to choose smarter strategies, tactics, and partners to create better customer experiences. Take ownership, choose to change.
Better People
Suffering is our own creation. If we grabbed a piece of barbed wire we would undoubtingly hurt ourselves. We would cut our hands and that would be painful. It happened and hurts, but it will heal. Many times, what happens is we think we want what the barbed wire offers. Therefore, we hold onto it. The initial pain goes away. However, because we don’t want to release it, the cuts get deeper and deeper. The idea of opening our hands is more painful. But the only way to allow our hands to heal is to let go.
This is what I mean when I say, suffering is our own creation. We decide what we want AND HOW we want it. The ‘how’ is thinking we need what the barbed wire offers. The ‘how’ is believing we will only get what we want from an outside source or action like; that person or job and if we do or don’t do. The ‘how’ is holding on to a story we told ourselves.
This is a difficult concept and even harder to do it. But that is why people and tools exist to assist you on this healing journey. If you can accept that you are holding on to stories you told yourself, and you are willing to let go, you can heal. It is a choice. Choose you and choose to heal. I am here to guide you and help release stuck energies and blocks through spiritual practices so you can heal.
