Dear Savvy Friend,

I attended a truly fabulous seminar held by self-made online vixen & millionaire Ali Brown  in Beverly Hills last week.  Ali is so inspiring for obvious reasons – she’s made a huge success of her business and she’s passionate about teaching women in particular about the possibilities and what’s theirs for the making (www.AliBrown.com).  She reminded the women attending her event last week  that the real truth in becoming your best expression of your gifts  & achieving your dreams (whatever the form) is largely about going within – something you don’t always hear regarding business-building. This  is 100% aligned with my practice and the process I take clients through in love and life coaching.

That becoming the glorious person and woman that G*d/Spirit/the Universe intended on - which you already are but might have forgotten - is largely a matter of shedding.   Shedding old beliefs, old ways of being, of doing things, old ‘identities’.  That the success that we’re wanting to take further shape in our lives – be it in relationship, health, business, life-style – is always a matter of first going within and becoming the person that your relationship, business, and  life dreams demands of you to become. The same ways of being gets us more of the same.  And if our goal is to change course, to attract a new level of success professionally and personally, well then we must look within first.  It’s not what our ego or insta-results culture supports or demands of us, yet it’s truly essential for real & lasting change. 

This Truth reminds me of another that’s related, something that Marianne Williamson says on an audio ‘Handling Fear’ – because that’s what’s at the heart of change and stepping into bigger shoes that will attract and hold our desires – FEAR – and she said that it’s our human tendency to support and gather around ‘death’, whether it’s death of a job or relationship or something else in our lives bringing pain and fear, but not to support and gather around ‘birth’.  This is the birth of who we are becoming, the birth of our desires, the birth of our greatest expression of who we are : in relationship, in career, in dreams made manifest.  The birth of our success – of who we are allowing ourselves to become.

What I know to be true of this ‘birthing’ process , personally, is that  things can get REALLY uncomfortable.  Fear is up as a constant, just as it seems to be also at ‘death’ of something.  The ‘Who Am I?’ to want….to be….to do…..that we’re attempting to step into is loud and clear in our heads.  The reality is, it can stop us dead in our tracks.  It can shut us down and cause us to waver, doubt, and sometimes give up.  And, on top of it, we might not have that many people truly supporitngus – REALLY cheering us on and celebrating us – because it can bring up the ego-fear of others, especially if they’re in a static and unhappy place with themselves.

Well, my savvy friend, I’m really thrilled to announce that a group coaching program is launching that will foster this celebration of success – who you are becoming as you progress in your business, your life-style, and your heart’s desires.  This format will deliver not only coaching, but a tribe to you of positivity, support, and accountabilty – and this will come at a fraction of my private coaching fees.  ;-)  If you’re desiring big results, set yourself up for success by focused time and an environment that will both help you stay accountable and celebrate you along the way.

The first live meeting of this Success Circle will be NEXT WEEK, July 8th, in Cow Hollow – San Francisco.  I know, that’s in less than a week. It’s happening fast, but if this is what you’ve been waiting for, don’t doubt it, just DECIDE and join us.

Format:

-Intimate, group of 10 or fewer

-2 Group Monthly Meetings:  (1) Live in person the first Wednesday of each month, and (1) phone meeting3rd week of each month.

-MP3 audio recordings sent to your inbox in case you miss a meeting, and to further your learning.

-  Coaching, regular learning topic, sharing, and accountability – all designed to keep you focused & moving.

- Some Fun and sass  along the way ,of course. ;-) 

Is this what you’ve been waiting for?  If so, the next steps are :

1)  Email me directly at leslie@belovesavvy.com, telling me a little bit about why you’re interested in joining the group. 

2) I’ll then send you the link to register, and more details for the July 8th start date!

Wishing you a very Happy 4th of July~

From my savvy heart to yours ~

Dear Savvy Woman,

I’m re-reading a book of Marianne Williamson’s right now, called “Enchanted Love: The Mystical Power of Intimate Relationships.”  I keep coming across these excerpts and little golden nuggets that I have saved and carried with me for years now, since first reading the book.

There’s so much to share here (you’ll have to pick up a copy for yourself) but today what resonates with me is this piece below about staying on our own side of the ‘net’ in a relationship; staying largely in our feminine.  Learning how to receive what we need and not trying to make it happen out of desperation, whether it is being courted or working through an issue.  

I think about a good friend who recently lost a romance, and she agonizes over how she reached over in with her masculine too much and the bloom wilted.    I think about my own relationship, and how I am faced with an issue that keeps me on my toes in terms of staying on my own side of the net in the ‘ match ‘ right now.  It’s challenging at times as I want to reach over and use my masculine to ‘fix’ or ‘control’ or ‘change’ what I cannot.  I must remain true to myself in my feminine and allow for the process to unfold where I can receive what I need.  Just as my friend wanted to receive being courted, but staying in her masculine too much had her courting him, however unconscious it was at the time for her – which it largely was.

“Only a woman with high standards, who has no interest in anything but the most adult interaction between a man and a woman, has the capactiy to inspire a man to learn how to act like one.  A man will not be attracted, or at least he will not remain attracted, to a woman who emotionally tries to do the work for him, because in his heart what he wants most is the experience of his own manhood.”

From my savvy heart to yours,

Leslie
