Called in as Guest Expert Mindset & Lifestyle Transformation Coach
for Guided Visualization and Journal Practices

The day was a beautiful one. It was held at the picturesque resort of Stanly Ranch, where luxurious health and wellness are at the forefront. The class was nearly full, with 15 guests looking to reset their day and lives.I hope those reading this get something powerful out of it like my guests attending my program did this past month.

I'm so thankful to Stanly Ranch, Auberge, for welcoming me in as the guest expert coach in mindfulness and lifestyle transformation for the May 18th retreat.

It was a beautiful honor to see the filled room at my first retreat, where I held my program, 'Embodiment of Change.' For anyone who didn't get to attend, this post might be a powerful read for you as well.

I guided my attendees through two of the most powerfully transformative programs I offer, which have been changing the trajectory of my 1:1 coaching clients' lives.

The guided visualization process and my custom planner, 'The Embodiment of Change,' harnesses my methodology with journal prompts to start the journey of "making real" what they visualized.

Walk through this now with me for a glimpse ...

----Imagine this... what if you were just coming out of a coma? You were safe and healthy but had no recollection of what past conceived notions about your life had made you feel the burdens over your life. You had no knowledge about any of your limitations or any of life's concerns and didn't yet have any knowledge of any hardships; what do you then go on to make for your life when you leave that hospital bed?

Answer how you would see your life once they've taken off the goggles (of the hardships, everyday burdens, current blocks, relationships, financial worries, and mundane occurrences)

The sky is the limit because you can't remember your failings, your blocks, etc. You get to do exactly as you wish. Your life is anew! What do you put back into your life?

The truth is you really can create your life right here and now without the coma-ridden accident.

This made my guests have some pretty profound revelations of the answers:

Do you go back to that same relationship?

Do you live where you live?

Do you surround yourself with the same people or the same circumstances?

What have you changed about the way you go about your life?

Whether my guests wanted to change their current life circumstances or if it was something more simple like being totally done with having a messy office that was depleting their mojo and drive to "get it done," or whether they wanted to overhaul their current outlook and change themselves to live freer, they realized what they needed to do to take the reigns over their life.

They realized what they deserved and what life they wanted to live. But beyond that, more importantly, they saw and felt on a cellular level for the first time in a long while that it was actually very much possible. It's when they implement the changes that they realize what else gets lifted in their life!

I saw them light up when they talked about their revelations.

From there, we went through the first stages of making it a reality by putting pen to paper on their goals.

I witnessed the transformation beginning! It's the reason why I do this work they begin to see themselves as if it had already been accomplished!

Here are some of the paraphrased responses during the program:

"I just realized what I feel like when I make time to get back into fitness, and it's who I am at the core. I need to ask for more time away from kids so I can do this sort of thing."

"I just realized at this moment it's not a cleaner for the house I've been needing; it's a professional organizer to set new systems in place so I can be more stress-free."

"I see my future body having more muscle mass and being active, dressing up more, and now feel what that would be like again. It's part of who I was and see myself as."

" I realized maybe it's me who's being too hard on my partner because I've been so used to giving to everyone and really only finally hear now what I've been needing all this time."

Here's my message to you if you're still reading this.....YOU GET TO CRAFT YOUR LIFE AS YOU DESIRE IT TO BE RIGHT HERE AN NOW NO MATTER YOUR PAST CIRCUMSTANCES. YOU GET TO DO ANYTHING YOU SET YOUR MIND TO.

I love helping my clients transform their lives.

Usually, my clients want to be in vacation mode, free of worry, and aligned as their truest selves but doing more of what it is they love in life and business but just freer. It's a feeling, and the truth is that I see my coaching clients literally transform.

They got to be fully them without the tribulations of the world to reinvent themselves in the moment. I wish it for everyone. It's an ongoing practice. We stumble and fall off, and the "real" world feels so real, then we get back to our higher innate self and live more intentionally, truly doing what we love and what feeds our soul... then it all just flows.

For anyone out there who is reading this or wishes to share this with others, you do anything you set your mind to. The mind is the key and the beginning of it. It's what follows, which is the action items you must take to make doing anything you set your mind to possible.

This is how I've transformed my own life and will continue to do so. Put the craziest things you have desired to do that you feel are coming from a higher power because you keep focusing on them throughout your life.

Then make a plan, then do it! It's how I had the courage and gusto to go for outlandish things that resonated with my soul, but it's also why it's an active practice to uplevel my personal space and live in an environment that makes me feel revived, living intentionally that cultivates higher, more fulfilled, "ease of life" future me.

The more you bounce back quicker, the more you can align more fully with your higher self, and that is where the "vacation-minded" self comes from. She or he is in you all the time; it's about shifting habits and perspectives in your life. This new reality meets a new life.
