This morning, I was watching George's video on our "authentic outreach message" and appreciating his guidance to let it come from our hearts and a genuine spirit of wanting to serve others... so I wanted to practice that here with all of you! 

A part of me feels nervous about asking for help, and also feeling a bit stuck over the past week about how to request market research conversations.... Maybe, as I write that, it's clearer that it's not the how, but more like putting myself out there inherent to making a public request. Even writing that out loud I feel softer and I'm grateful to 

@Jenny Cliftfor normalizing many of these feelings during our group tapping session a few weeks ago! 

So here it goes with my request :)  

If one of these issues or yearnings resonates with your experience, would you be willing to hop on a short call and tell me a little more about it?

Issues

• Feeling alone as the leader: You’re holding space for everyone else’s emotions and feel like you can’t process your own feelings with others because you’re supposed to be taking care of them (or put on a “strong” face). As a result, you have may feel numb, burnt out, not motivated, bursts of anger, or things bleeding into personal life. 
• Feeling activated, overwhelmed or stressed at work: You may experience this as lack of boundaries, lack of motivation, not feeling like you’re doing something meaningful or that you’re actually ‘good’ at, and that you just put on a face and do the hours. 
• Sitting in the uncertainty of the path you’re on, especially if you’ve stepped away from a more conventional career: You may be grappling with questions like, “Am I just wasting my time? “ Or comparing yourself to peers and feeling, “I’m behind.” Or otherwise struggling with the unknown inherent to carving your own path.  

Yearnings

• What is the more beautiful world your heart knows is possible?” You’re wanting to recapture some of the idealism you had in college about radically reimagining the world. You want to tune in again with issues you cared about like global poverty and keep that spirit alive even as you get older, have a career, have kids, etc. 
• Play at work: What if going to work could feel like you were at summer camp every day? This doesn’t necessarily mean you turn everything into a game, but that there’s a spirit of lightness, not taking yourself too seriously, self-permission to experiment, letting go of attachment to the results, and surrounding yourself with an atmosphere of joy. 

I'm reminded of Tad Hargrave saying, "Your deepest wound is your truest niche" and I'm realizing, too, as much as I want to do market research, I also just want to have a heart-to-heart and connect with others around these issues and yearnings because they're a deep part of my own struggles and aspirations. I'd love to hear about resources you've tried, what you've found helpful on your journey, what's missing out there, etc. 

If it's easiest coordination-wise, you can just book a time here or comment below and I'll reach out to you directly! 

Hey everyone, I’m excited to give 111 an honest try this year! I can’t believe it’s already mid January and I’d love to book market research calls. I’m wondering if any of you lovely folks would be interested in a market research trade. 

I’m thinking a 1 hour call: approximately 25 minutes each to ask each other questions. Then any leftover time we can use for netcaring and supportive feedback about the process. Totally flexible with this! 

Here’s a little bit more about me (a snippet from my ABC intro):

I’m an evolutionary astrologer (with an MA in Jungian Depth psych, and many years working in the mental health field) who works with creative women who want to feel more authentically aligned with their purpose and unique strengths. 

I love using astrology and depth psychology to connect with their innate gifts, express their creativity authentically, and follow the threads of purpose within them – all while offering practical uses of their birth chart to get unstuck, find clarity and empower themselves through life’s ups and downs.

If interested, let me know and I can send a scheduling link :)
