There's Something You Already Know About What & Who You Most Truly Want to Become

Following the profound transformations that have taken place for participants in our six-month programme, “CPP: Bring Your Unique Expression to Life”, we're really excited to be bringing this theme to our first live in-person workshop together, “Lighting Your Path” (an event dedicated to uncovering your unique map and navigation system for giving your deepest gifts and making a difference in the world). There’s this quote from Frederick Buechner:

“The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.”

Whether you think of it as ‘God’, ‘Mind’, ‘the wisdom within’ or as “the mystery and intelligence behind life”, the fact that you’re even reading this message means you likely resonate with the sense that...

a) you’re here for a reason,

b) you have gifts the world needs and

c) your most beautiful and fulfilling life involves bringing your gifts to the world.

 This is what Emma and I deeply believe, and what’s guiding us in this event. When asked “Why do this event?”, Emma’s answer hit the nail on the head: 

“Because I see so many people with a valuable role to play in this world, with qualities and gifts placed within them by this infinite intelligence. And they’re keeping those gifts locked inside, sometimes at huge ongoing cost to their wellbeing, their sense of meaning and purpose, their sense of belonging, and even their health and energy levels.  

A way greater intelligence than ours gave us gifts, heart’s desires and a compass that are a perfect match with what some aspect of the world most needs. And all three of those things are hidden from us to varying degrees. I’d love for more people to both realise the value, and uncover their how, of aligning with the gifts that are theirs to give and fully trusting their own calling, especially when it looks different to what those around us are doing or to our own ideas about what it should look like.“

Here’s our assertion: No matter your current circumstances, your past experiences, or your ideas about what is or isn't possible for you… there exists inside you a song that's uniquely yours to sing… gifts that are uniquely yours to give… and a life that (when you align with it) means you thrive while benefiting the whole. 

And let's face it… it seems pretty clear that the whole is sorely in need of us acting in alignment right now, doesn’t it? There’s that famous quote from Steve Jobs’ Stanford Commencement Address: 

“Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become.”

 You see, it turns out that there’s an unerring relationship between 

- the truth of who you are, 

- your unique essence, 

- the gifts you're here to give, 

- the obstacles that have been in your way until now 

- the shape of the ‘bigger journey’ you’re on, and 

- what the world most desperately needs. 

 And as you start to see the logic and benevolence of the system at play, you have a whole new relationship to what’s been getting in the way until now. 

Lighting Your Path is a live in-person event (ie. no live-stream, no recording) and we’re looking forward to connecting with clients, friends and colleagues in-person
