Now I am going to reveal to you something which is very pure, a totally white thought. It is always in my heart; it blooms at each of my steps… The Dance is Love, it is only Love, it alone, and that is enough… I then dance to poems, to music… But now I would like to no longer dance to

anything

but

the rhythm of my

SOUL.

- Isadora Duncan

How are you feeling these days? I really want to know! What could it mean for you to no longer dance to anything but the rhythm of Your Soul??

What the heck could that feel like and look like??

It’s really helping me to revisit this quote with humility & curiosity. It’s fascinating to discover subtler layers of how I have patterns of “adaptive strategic self,” like being nice in ways that are such an engrained habit that I didn’t realize were not really Real.?

Your Soul wants you to be happy. My soul wants me to be happy. Your Soul knows what’s truly “good for you” that’s not the same as the con mind’s ideas. No one is exempt. It’s not selfish. Remember another quote- Know thyself is not a personal indulgence. It is a global imperative.?(Paul Quinn).

My client “Judy” is uncovering layers of her unique adaptive strategies for trying to be a good leader that ironically undermines herself and her team. “Steve” is seeing how his subtle conflict avoidance will get in the way of scaling and revenue growth. “Marsha” is waking up to her childhood programming popping up in limiting her being able to speak up and be an enrolling stand for things she really cares about. This is all good news.

When we SEE what’s been subtly subconscious, we can dissolve blockages, free up Soul Joy and celebrate new results. The more authentic we each can be, not only do we get to be happier- we also contribute our genuine best to everyone else.

I’m looking in the mirror and inside my heart—recommitting to aligning with surrender to Soul rather than grasping at trying to be safe, according to my conditioned, culturally logical mind’s advice about how to succeed. It includes stretching beyond comfort zones and courage- including allowing myself more soul-nourishing priorities and how I measure success.

It’s feeling like BEing is the right thing to do!

The more I trust my Soul to lead, outer results are flowing in, almost like magic winks (with tangible positive business impact) from life affirming champion energy dancing me with, “We’ve got you” and “You’ve got this.” :-)

Sometimes I forget this, and slip & slide, in not fun ways, on that seeker-achiever trying treadmill, grasping at the illusion of control from my little mind. How about you?

My intention is to champion you in being loyal to your REAL SELF, to your SOUL Desire/Destiny, for your own sake and for how this ends up being a gift to the world more than the ways we Try to be good. Please pause and breathe in that paradox. It’s so subtle and so huge.

We are living in interesting times!

We get to wake up and create amazing possibilities or maybe perish or accidentally stay half asleep through what could be the turning point of our lives and legacies.

My heart wants you to wake up to your greater Soul Joy.

This isn’t easy with so much going on “out there” and on your plate, hmm? Thus, it’s imperative to focus even more on stabilizing what’s happening “in here” inside our nervous systems, hearts, minds, bodies and soul sovereignty.

It would make sense if …

You feel exhausted and keep trying to keep up on the seeker-achiever trying treadmill.

Or

You feel called forth to shine your light and bring out the best possibilities in yourself and others.

Or

You feel heartbreak and compassion and frustration with the news stories and strife of life at times.

Or

A combo platter of the above and more. Perhaps a part of you wants to Be the Change and another needs a nap! Me too. Let this be a new version of we can have it all. If I've learned anything in more than 20 years of working with bright leaders and my own journey- we need to fill our own well first (with the right fuel!) and give from this power source. If we have soul joy vibes we are more effective, innovative, magnetizing opportunities, attracting investors, talent, efficient work flow, et al. New solutions emerge.

I’m outside typing, and hear conversations passing by. “I was pushed out twice…” and what sounds like lamenting about those guys that did X to me at some Silicon Valley enterprise. And a plumber humming, “My pleasure! I’ll see you tomorrow.” I love noticing the guy that has his elbows in poop feels like he’s in his soul’s joy. It’s about energy more than the outer activity, yah? Resonance over resume. Great reminder.

How DO we create better lives, better business, better world? What is mine to do? I know that all of that must must must start with my BEing. Imagine a world where you and I get to wake up to our real, soul-joy power each morning and give & receive & co-create from that infinite, renewable energy source.

I like to believe we wouldn’t have long lists of school shootings, wars across the globe, or unresolved little wars in team meetings at work, or in the kitchen, bedroom, and boardroom.

I am forever fascinated with the game-changing power of healing the war within to truly shift everything we’re trying to improve, hide, or hope for.

How are you doing with your BEing and dancing to the rhythm of your soul? What does your soul want FOR you and then to express through you??

I’ve recorded?two new?guided power pause meditations?here?to inspire your insights on this.

Give yourself a walk in nature or such, bring a notebook and capture messages from your soul that’s longing for some quality time with you and wants to empower your life now. Sending much love your way.

I’d love to hear what this stirs up for you or questions, thoughts. Thanks!

Cheers, Marian

P.S. If you are curious about how letting go of “trying harder” makes you MORE effective, not less, I’d be delighted to share more and explore your soul’s desires & pragmatic applications with you.?
