Why I changed my Linkedin About.

Now the dust has settled and some beautiful comments have been gratefully received and some concerned contacts have expressed concern over my sanity also some obligatory feathers have been really ruffled. I now realise I need to add extra context. Note to spiritual evangelists we both have the right to share and that sharing cannot always be called a "reaction" it's where I am and what I choose to share, you don't have to read it or agree.

I am writing this primarily for myself as it is healing and then I am writing for the other voices that resonate, that also can find the courage to share, to stand up and question things.

I am not anti achievement or qualifications as it took a lot of sweat, tears and endeavour to become a doctor, lawyer, president or MCC in the coaching world. Well done and I mean that with no irony, What I am tired of and am questioning is the damage caused by an unchecked ego's thinking the title in itself is a means to an end. That lacks humility, continuous learning and the ability to face up to the fact that there is WAY more we don't know than we do know, especially in the field of human development, psychology, humanity, spirituality and my industry called coaching.

I saw my own ego get attached to the title Master Trainer so I'm questioning that title was and is valid or necessary at all. So I had 14 years with Creative Consciousness and there were amazing moments, amazing people, amazing insights yet I also see the fundamental flaws in the same way I see the fundamental flaws of our consumer driven mentality and this out of control system of needing more profits, things, accolades a completely egoic mechanism that should be questioned and is being questioned by many fantastic people.

Where I questions gurus is where they believe they are their message that they are better than you or I. They are not, that belief of superiority is pure ego dressed as a spiritual leader especially when it will not accept feedback and thinks it's way is the ONLY way. There are many ways and there are amazing teachers and messengers out there. The ones I get great value from are:

Zach Bush

Kyle Crease

Brene Brown

Marianne Williamson

Peter Block

Nancy Kline

Charles Eisenstein

There are many more too. So I took off how many hours I've coached and any promise of transforming you as only you can do that. I have been truly humbled and as much as I did have moments of pure inspiration, courage and making a difference for people I worked with, I also let my ego hijack me, become self serving and blinded. My sight has returned and I send you love and openly apologise for where my ego got too loud. I still have my ego and you have yours however let us not let this thing blind us through being ultra defensive and attached to our opinions and belief systems. With the greatest of care and love.
