For months I have consciously avoided speaking about the state of the economy. I didn't want to focus on fear and add to the panic spreading through the world like a virus. Now it's time for me to speak up, and with the power of my word, help turn the tide.

Yes, this is a challenging time. No one seems to know how long this economic downturn will last, or where it will take us. Even our new President admits that his stimulus package is trial and error. We are being forced to see what has always been true - that life is mysterious and unknowable. We can plan and dream and do our best, and ultimately, see that we are not in control of the outcome.

What we do have control over is our own perception.  We get to choose how to describe and move through this changing reality. It is so easy to point the finger, blame others, and expect the government to bail us out. I believe that each of us has contributed in our own way to the creation - and dissolution - of an inflated economy that was destined to burst. And now it's up to us to rise up from the ashes and take responsibility for re-shaping our financial future. 

I see this time as one of transformation for the whole planet. And I exult in the way it's changing us.  Those of us who choose to participate in this metamorphosis are taking stock and re-evaluating what really matters. We are finding ways to stay steady and grounded, even when the economy is shaking. We are tapping into our inner resources and thriving! We are being called upon to join forces and work together to find common solutions. We see that we are all in this together.

I am re-evaluating what really matters to me, and sharing that with my clients. We are having in depth conversations about values, community, and our contribution to this world. Working together towards a common cause generates excitement, possibility, and action, whereas isolating with our fear-based thoughts spreads stagnation, inaction and, ultimately, more fear.

I believe that people want to experience forward movement and hope - a sense that they can not only survive but do well in this time. They want to make a change now and not wait for the economy to turn around. In another words, they are ready to take control of their lives, create financial freedom, and in their own way, turn around the world situation - to become an active participant in its recovery!

To that end, I have designed a new six week program, Create Financial Freedom. My intention is to gather people together in small groups and inspire them to walk through fear to freedom. We will utilize the best of my coaching techniques, which include The Four Agreements^®, Speak With Confidence, meditation, and DreamShifting, and we will participate in the power of collaboration.
