The gap

There’s a saying, “When you know better, you do better”.

But I found that, annoyingly, it’s not always true.

We can know all about self care, boundaries, and healthy communication tips but still we find ourselves with a knowing and doing gap.

This gap comes from a disconnect between what we feel and believe in our body and what we logically know in our brain.

I work with my clients to close that gap.

Operating from an integrated state opens up so much more energy and ease in our life and work.

My coaching approach Leadership Atlas – connects our head knowledge with our body’s wisdom.

The term “Atlas” speaks to the first vertebrae connecting the spine at the skull.

Atlas is also an invitation to draft your unique map for your authentic and empowered leadership. It’s a process of slowing down, listening to your inner wisdom, and releasing your inner roadblocks so that you can powerfully create and become who you’re meant to be.

There is no one right way of being a leader, and in fact when we believe we have to fit a certain model to be a leader we edit our own style and disconnect from our unique embodied power.

You’ve read the books, gotten degrees, continued to seek answers with your head… but until your nervous system can integrate what you know and feel safe to change your behavior and how you think about yourself then the old reactive patterns will continue to direct your life.

That felt safety (a supported parasympathetic nervous system state) is what unlocks the behavior change.

I have witnessed time and time again, it is not just knowing better, it’s feeling better that supports the change we desire.

This work is a PRACTICE.

We start by declaring we are ready to close the gap and visioning the impact of living a life of integration and authenticity. This is the first step we take on the discovery call.

Over the course of working together change happens – releasing more joy as we close that head/body gap.

FEEL BETTER, LEAD BETTER
