Radical Wellbeing & Paying it Forward

“Unexpected kindness is the most powerful, least costly and most underrated agent of human change.”?~ Bob Kerrey

Tomorrow, 28th April 2022 is Global Pay It Forward Day!?This is a wonderful occasion that was initiated in Australia in 2007 by Blake Beattie, inspired by the author Catherine Ryan Hyde’s Pay It Forward movement.?

Essentially the day is a celebration of how one small act of kindness can make a big impact in the world.?From its beginning in Australia, the holiday now spreads love and happiness in over 85 countries.

As a coach, I walk my talk and I participate in my own coaching and mastermind community.?Last week, we were invited to contribute to this year’s #globalpayitforwardday as a way to live into our commitment to be a Person of Increase, i.e., a person who adds value, who contributes, who is focused on solutions rather than problems, someone who is looking for ways to create more blessings in our world.

And I set to pondering what could be my contribution?

I was already advertising my Radical Wellbeing programme, a fabulous, four-week programme focusing on all four dimensions of wellbeing: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.?The programme empowers participants to create the vision, structure, mindset and action required to establish their version of radical wellbeing and start on the path to achieving it.?

I realised that Radical Wellbeing was set to launch on 28 April, the same day as Global Pay it Forward Day.?And that got me thinking, why not make Radical Wellbeing my contribution this year? At a time of global turmoil, wouldn’t it be a lovely gesture to open up access to Radical Wellbeing to everyone for free?

So that’s my contribution!?Radical Wellbeing is being re-launched as my personal contribution to Global Pay It Forward Day 2022!?It is available here, free to everyone interested.?

Originally participation was set at an investment of €160 per participant.?This is now being waived in full and participation is totally free.?For everyone who has paid already, you will be fully reimbursed!??I hope it is an offer that can serve you, your family members, friends and co-workers, feel free to invite all who might be interested.

In order to enable news to spread and give as many people as possible the opportunity to participate Radical Wellbeing will now commence on Thursday 5 May and continue for the following 3 Thursdays!?In response to multiple inquiries locally to have it run in the evening, we are also shifting the time of our calls to 7pm Irish time.?This will also better support those of you wishing to join the programme from North America!

Sign up for Radical Wellbeing here – simply add your details and you will automatically be added to the programme.?You will receive a welcome email with details for joining the zoom calls and follow up emails with worksheets and resources after each call.?If you don’t receive the initial welcome email, be sure and check your junk and spam folders.

?You may be one person in this world, but to one person, you could make a world of difference.
