The purpose of coaching is to guide you to reach for your dreams, no matter how big or small.
As a coach, I do this by listening to the dreams of my clients, mirroring their strengths, guiding them deeper into the depths of their psyche, while identifying self-destructive patterns so those patterns can begin to shift.
I help you to expand your sphere of influence, break out of limiting beliefs & behaviors, set goals or action steps, and then I encourage you to remain accountable to those goals, or evaluate what might be causing you to quit before you start.
I help clients focus on their dreams understanding that everybody has within them the inherent drive to reach them, if only they could learn to bypass the negative internal forces which tend to whisper in their ear all the reasons to fail. Due to past experiences we haven’t yet moved through, those voices can sometimes be louder than the voice that says go for it.
It’s not a quick process. Sustainable change never is.
What if we can’t see it?
What if a person has no idea what their dreams are? What if they’ve been stagnant for so long, they’ve forgotten what passion even is? Does a person lose the ability to connect with their intrinsic motivators? Do these motivators have an expiration date? Do they vanish if gone unpracticed for too long?
No. Never.
Our dreams never die, they just go to sleep. But sleep is temporary and from it we’ll awaken. We just have to want it. We have to wish for that fire to return, and it will.
The Earth Day connection.
Why I do this work is because it’s my passion. It’s a soul-calling. I believe that expressing our spirit is our nature. And just like we’ve been taught that nature is less than us (the “Man’s dominion over nature” illusion), we’ve also been taught that our spirit doesn’t matter as much as our mind.
I believe that every time a person makes a choice that leads them closer to their own spirit, we return to nature, rather than living outside of it. The more we evolve toward a meaningful, purpose-driven existence, the more we shift this planet into a heart-centered collective where we’ll learn to live within the laws of Nature rather than waging war against it. From there we can see that there will always be enough for everybody as long as we make soul-centered decisions.
And we do this collectively, one by one, when we make the commitment to wake up our true natures. We are that magic.
If you are feeling a little lost and can’t seem to find the door; if you are desperately searching for a way back to your own spirit, please reach out. I’m here for it.
Happy Earth Day.
Much Love,
Kristy Sweetland
