After 10 years in a profession that just didn't light me up - good on paper but bad on the soul - I had to came face to face with the fact that I could take a risk on something new (business) or keep the slow descent towards disappointment in employment.
Your story might sound something like mine - or you might resonate with how I felt: the endless trudge forward to more of the same, with no end in sight.

Simple and unsatisfying.
I’m going to teach you how I broke free, leapt off the cliff and chose to fly rather than fall.
(Are you ready?)
Connect to your Core Desires
Picture a rose. Delicate. Beautiful. Fragrant.
Discovering the simple power of this rose lifted the leaden veil from my eyes and clued me in to what was truly important to me - and it can awaken the same magic within you too.
Let’s paint the picture of a Rose in your minds eye. Read the questions, close your eyes and trust your intuition to lead you wherever it is you need to go.
How many petals does it have?
What colour is it?
How does it smell?
Describe the texture of the petals.
Measure the length of the stem.
What details are you noticing as you examine it?
(Write down any observations you wish to keep.)
This is a symbolic representation of your Core Desires. Core Desires - emotional states that fuel, drive and sustain you.
They fill your cup.
They inspire you to action.
They nourish you mind, body and soul.
In life you are standing at the edge of a cliff, wondering what has lead you here, and it is these very desires that have been whispering directions all along.
With this greater level of awareness and realisation respond to this final prompt:
At my Core I desire to experience…
