Vitality is the sustaining force of your business. Take care of yourself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Authenticity is the ultimate credibility and the only way to build your true tribe. Be yourself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Allow inspiration to lead you and trust that it will take you where you need to go.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Strip away what is not needed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Working hard doesn't have to feel like hard work. Do what brings you joy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Only you really know your right path, Learning to listen, to trust and to honour that deeper calling will always guide you well. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Keep your feet in the soil and your arms around the trees. Staying grounded in nature will keep you sane, heal your body and remind you that you are not alone.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you build a life around what's most important and you build your work around your gifts and joyful service, doubts and regrets fall away and what is left is a beautiful life of meaning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A few words to live by for the Empowered Entrepreneur in all of us. Onwards into the unfolding dear hearts.

Wow I'm still riding high from last week. Our Empowered Entrepreneur Gathering was such a great morning! My thanks again to the wonderful Zoe from @songsofevolution who was my special surprise and had us all singing in beautiful harmony. I'm hoping the recording turned out all right so I can share some snippets. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Then my biggest small had her ballet show all weekend, talk about emotional overload.
I blubbed all the way through her performance as a snowflake! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Both events really hit home how much is possible when you play on the edge of your comfort zone with the right support around you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was so pleased to see how supportive our community of entrepreneurs are of each other. It really is a genuine tribe of inspired and inspiring souls lifting each other up and I'm so grateful to be able to witness it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you so much to everyone who came and made it such a wonderful event.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our next one is planned for Wednesday 25th September and I'll be opening for bookings later this week, so watch this space for more details.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have a lovely day folks

Yes I'm just a little bit excited. I get to spend my morning doing some of my very favourite things, not least being immersed in the brilliant company of Empowered Entrepreneurs.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's the second of our Empowered Entrepreneur Gatherings in west London today and I can't wait to see everyone. I'll be giving a short but hopefully juicy key note on finding your voice and what it takes to write a book and I have something lovely up my sleeve, which I'll try and share on stories later.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The lovely @cecelinaphotography snapped this of me at our last gathering, I couldn't stop grinning the whole day and I'm pretty sure today will be much the same.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Looking forward to seeing you there if you're able to come, and if not then look out for the September date. I know these gatherings are going to be so inspiring for us all and it's a good excuse for a real world hug...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Plans are also afoot to take them on tour so if you're keen to join the empowered tribe and are a little further afield than London, get in touch and let's see what we can make happen.

I suppose the obvious thing to say in response to today's prompt, the last in our summer series for #anempowered2019, is that I'm really darn proud of my book The Empowered Entrepreneur. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's out in the world and seems to be making a difference, and every time I get a note from someone telling me that it's inspired them, moved them or affirmed things for them it lifts me up like you wouldn't believe. I'm proud of the team of creatives that enabled me to bring it together and especially my amazing husband @amershammusicstudios for his unwavering support and his discerning edit. The book is tangible legacy that I hope will be around for a long time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But what I'm most proud of is perhaps slightly less tangible. It's the legacy created by a body of 20 years worth of work with my incredible clients. I'm most proud of them, what they have been able to overcome, work through, heal and transform in their lives and I'm immensely grateful for my part in it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you to everyone who has been part of my journey and to those of you who have joined in this exploration this past two weeks. I hope to see many of you at the gathering tomorrow and for those that aren't able to make it in person, you'll be with us in spirit.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Onwards dear ones and thank you!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Today's prompt is "What would you change about the way you communicate...?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This has been so interesting to reflect on. As a coach i'm always thinking about how I communicate, how my clients put themselves across and what our words reveal about our beliefs, values and sense of being. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm always seeking the deeper meaning, hearing the literal whilst looking beyond it to what is really being said. It fascinates me and I love the rich and transformative power of language and a well timed well phrased question. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If I were to change the way I communicate to be more effective I would apply more of what I use in my work at home with my family. I would assume less and listen more. I would challenge less and acknowledge more, I would seek to understand first and foremost, which I don't always do. It's easy to slip into bad habits when you take love and positive regard for granted. if I can hold my clients in unconditional positive regard, surely my nearest and dearest deserve that same respect and honour.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Generally, I might also play with being a little more provocative. just for fun.
I pride myself on being a reasonable person. I find it easy to understand differing points of view and am able to facilitate harmonious discussions between opposing factions with relative ease. My work with management teams has stood me in fairly good stead with regard to maintaining diplomatic relations and i've always erred toward peace keeping rather than rabble rousing in my work. I've never been an 'end justifies the means' kind of person. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But i'm curious of late. Wondering if I sit on the fence a little too much. Whether my words can be wielded with a little more clout, whether desperate times call for desperate measures. i'm thinking specifically of the climate crisis for example, and how my voice can be best used for change. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm curious...what do you find you respond best to? what galvanises you to action and what incites resistance or apathy? What approach is most engaging?

Today's prompt is an invitation to dig deep. To ask the provocative question that could lead to meaningful action if we let it...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If there was one thing you could change about the way you communicate what would it be? You can think beyond the arena of your business too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What would it mean to use your voice so that you really sing?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
