I cried a little this week…
In early 2011, I got the “call” to serve humanity in another way. I had no idea how that was going to happen. One class showed up on my radar, a few books, then another class…soon I was in a licensed practitioner program. I graduate in summer 2017.
While in these classes, I got another call to sell my business…WHAT! I thrashed at this call for 3 years through 6 employees coming and going.
Fine. 2x4 received.
In 2014, I sold the business and went to work for the company that purchased it. People said that was not a good idea, I followed my intuition, it felt like this was different. It was. They invested in me, my unfoldment and my ideas. Sometimes…most of the time they thought I was bat shit crazy. I am.
I took more classes, started my masters actually.
Each day I would get “downloads” of information which made no sense —
Awesomeness. 121%. incremental change. Meditation. Gratitude. Connection. Meaning. Families.
Individually the downloads made no sense, but put together, it all started coming into view. You can see some of how it came together in our cover photo at The Center for Awesomeness. You can follow this more on that page as well.
I spent every day of the last part of 2016 waking up at 5am to study, read, and build out my programs, my message. (I wrote more about this here) I then turned around and joined some groups. I interviewed people. I created a website. A logo. An awesomeness card. I spent money, hours, many moments questioning and being driven forward. All incrementally moving toward today.
“If we find ourselves in an undesirable situation, it simply means we have something to learn, and we confidently open ourselves to what that is. When we resist we multiply our challenges; when we accept life as it unfolds we make life easier, and it automatically becomes much richer.”

Today, 2.15.17, 6 months after I followed my intuition and told my new partners, I was moving on. 16 weeks after I moved home to focus in and 5 years after I got the original call, I have stepped back into entrepreneurship.
This whole time following my intuition. Testing what I was getting and knowing that I would be supported. Damn it feels good.
I am now focused on working with leaders who are struggling to find their awesomeness again. Reintroducing them to purpose. Confirming for them that they are in fact not alone. Companioning with them on a journey of awesomeness.
I cried a little today, tears of sadness and joy for the nudging that has been allowed to unfold and is still very much unfolding.
I offer this to you as a nudge. A cajoling of sorts to ask what for you is downloading and how can you use that before you get hit with a 2x4.
