How to Lead With Love Interview

December 23rd, 2011

This month I was interviewed by Crystal Davis on How to Lead with Love for her series Discover and Deliver Your Dreams 2012.

How do you create relationship in the workplace? As a woman that can be confusing – most of us have grown up sourcing our power in a masculine way in the working world. This often leaves you feeling drained, out of balance and cranky because you’re not anchored in your authentic feminine power. The key is to lead with love.

Being conscious that you are leading with love will ensure you develop authentic connections in both your professional and personal life.

I was recently interviewed on this topic and shared tips on the following:
1) How to stay in feminine and create vision for team that focuses on collaboration
2) How to really listen and make others feel heard
3) How to make others feel special
4) How to be in your feminine without feeling weak
5) How to motivate others for team results
6) Improve your connection with others with heart exercise

While attending a workshop this month I heard 90% of all employees will quit when the economy turns around because they don’t feel valued by their bosses. This is pretty staggering, isn’t it? It really highlights the need to lead with your heart, create collaboration and team vision so you make others not only feel like they are part of the whole but extremely valuable as well.

Whether you are an employee or in management would love to hear your thoughts on this after you listen to the interview:-)

Forgiveness

October 27th, 2011

Forgiveness – the fastest path to love and freedom – and yet so many of us struggle with this – thinking if we forgive we are condoning so we hold on to our anger and righteousness with a vice-like grip…along with this grip comes a closed heart keeping us from the love and happiness we want – silly, yes?

We all need a reminder on why it’s so important to forgive so when I came across this inspirational message on forgiveness I did a copy and paste so I could share with you….

Forgiveness…

Forgiveness doesn’t mean you have to hang out with the people you are forgiving, or even talk to them again, for that matter. It means doing what makes you feel balanced & grounded & secure as you go out and live your life.

There is however a process… There is a path to forgiveness. You cannot simply say, “I forgive you” unless you feel it. Those words don’t mean as much if you still have deep-seated resentment simmering inside.

Forgiveness means seeing those who have hurt you in a new light. It can come from knowing that soul part of you that has never been hurt or harmed and can never be anything less than all-that-is.

It comes from taking it to a new place… maybe even a place of seeing the light AND the flaws in those that have “done you wrong” perhaps even with a measure of compassion for them.

The result of forgiveness is feeling safe & good about yourself. From it comes the natural feeling of affection & love. And from that flow, abundance, balance and a GREAT life.

To your freedom! xo

How to Get Clarity and Own Your Life!

October 6th, 2011

I was recently skyping with a client in Japan, a delightful young woman, who is married but admits it’s not the relationship she had hoped it would be – she’s not getting the love and attention she would like from her partner. When I asked her what she would like her marriage to look like, what she wants, she said she didn’t know…and she felt helpless and stuck…

I gave her an exercise to do (I’ll give it to you at the end of this post) to get her started in knowing what she wanted. I could hear the excitement and energy shift in her voice – finally she would be able to have some clarity and direction…

This call made an impact on me – it further confirmed regardless your culture, age, relationship status, color, education or race if you don’t know what you want and clearly see it you will live an endless cycle of Groundhog days filled with disappointment.

So, are you clear about the life YOU want?

*Do you see your future in vivid color?

*Can you feel it, touch it, smell it?

If you answered yes you might be feeling a little like Julie Andrews and shouting to the mountaintops, “I’m ALIVE”!! But if you’re pondering the question, fiercely trying to catch a glimpse through the fog chances are, you’ve forgotten who you really are and what ignites your soul. I mean, really, how long has it been since you did what you loved and dared to dream without feeling guilty?

Come on now, fess up—there is no right or wrong answer, this is solely for your awareness. Creating an emotionally fulfilling and empowered life takes guts. Guts to get out of your own way, release the patterns and behavior that keep you stuck and comfortable within the discomfort (yes there has to be some payoff dear heart for you to continue with patterns that don’t allow you to soar!) But what I love about you, if you’re still reading, is that you have a desire to get out of the gunk and get your sparkle on. That’s awesome! And the first step is to dismantle that unfulfilling, routine and robotic life because it will only dull you down. To get glitzy and glimmering you’ll need to get clear on what you want and then connect with your electric passionate energy to super charge you there.

If you’re feeling anxious because you don’t know how to figure out what you want here’s a simple strategy that works and will give you clarity NOW.

EXERCISE FOR CLARITY

The easiest way to know what you want is to acknowledge what you DON’T want. So grab a piece of paper and pen, fold it in half vertically and at the top of the left column put WHAT I DON’T WANT and list everything in your life you would like to say sayonara to….then go to the top of the right column and write WHAT I DO WANT and directly across from each thing you’ve listed in the left column write the opposite in the right column. Voila, you now know what you want! And I’m sure once your mind starts clicking in this direction it will come up with a few more fantastical idea’s for a brilliant, beautiful future.

Envision this daily and build a solid relationship with it. You will be amazed at how relaxed and happy you become in the present, knowing this reality awaits you and you are powerfully in control of your life!

 

BONUS: Do this process with a friend or partner and visualize for each other the dream life each desires. This added energy will boost results big time.

Would love to hear back from you once you’ve done this exercise – your feedback helps me be of the highest service to you. xo

 

7 Tips for Self-Love

September 23rd, 2011

Are you practicing self-love on a daily basis to honor all that you are? It seems like such a no brainer doesn’t it? Surprisingly when coaching clients, talking with family and friends and living my own life reminders are essential! You get busy, you get distracted, you minimize your accomplishments, you let your limiting patterns run your life and you forget to fawn over YOU!

Follow these 7 tips to fall head over heels in love with YOU:

1) Write yourself a love letter. I mean really gush all over you. You are digging for your diamonds here so get out your pick, put on your mining hard hat and start excavating. If this is hard for you or you draw a blank ask a good friend or family member to help you discover your dazzle.

2) Combat the critics. Ah yes, the stealth committee of your mind—always at your service to run you over the coals. When they show up en force simply say, “Thank you for sharing, but no thanks! I choose to live with brilliance not bullying.”

3) Speak your truth—at all times, no matter what. Even if you think the conversation will be hard, show up with honesty and come from love. This honors who you are as well as the recipient.

4) Practice self-care. Listen to your body and take care of your needs! Eat when you’re hungry, sleep when you’re tired, get a massage, indulge in a mani pedi, exercise, and kick any destructive habits/addictions like alcohol, drugs, and food abuse. You may need a village to help you and that’s okay. Don’t be afraid to reach out—you are worth it! There is plenty of support waiting to help you shine.

5) Accept yourself—no matter what your race, color, height, weight or gender, just accept the facts. You cannot change these things. If you don’t accept them you will cripple yourself—let go of what you cannot change and choose to celebrate instead.

6)Find evidence that supports how wonderful you are!
Every day you are going to be faced with situations that challenge your state of being, but when you understand that your heart inherently holds the blueprint for love, joy and happiness and all you have to do is tune in you’ll discover you’re not so burdened when things go awry. And ultimately, when you fall in love with YOU, the world will too!

7) Celebrate your accomplishments!! Toast them with a friend or your partner, buy yourself flowers, treat yourself to a massage – do something to make a big deal of what you’ve done. I just had this conversation with a client of mine – when you minimize your winnings that’s sending a message that you aren’t grateful for these gifts. It’s also not very loving to yourself – you’ve worked hard so take time to high five yourself instead of being the tyrannical task master!

Follow these tips, learn to love yourself and watch your world change in a delicious and dreamy way! xo

How to Love Yourself & Believe in Your Magnificence!

September 17th, 2011

The theme for this month is LOVE….what we all want more of, right? At least that’s what my clients and friends and even strangers talk about…so I have a question for you? Are you your biggest and brightest fan or your own worst enemy? Do you applaud your accomplishments or do you look at what you didn’t get done? When you’re tired do you stop to nurture yourself or do you push yourself harder with nothing ever being good enough?

In other words, do you accept, respect, and love yourself? If you don’t treat yourself well, how can you expect others to love and respect you dear heart? You teach others how to treat you by how you treat yourself.

So ask yourself, “Do I value myself as much as I value my best friend?” If the answer is no, you’ll want to look at behavioral patterns that started in childhood. I know, I know, everyone tells you to go back to childhood, but there’s a good reason for it.

You learn to talk to yourself the way your parents talked to you as a child. If you grew up in a home where your family was always judging and blaming you for something or you suffered from verbal abuse, or you only felt loved when you accomplished something, you can bet you’ve carried that performance addict personality and judging, blaming negative self-talk into your adulthood.

As a child you don’t have the ability to discern fact from fiction so if you believe everything your parents and authority figures tell you—holy moly, how are you ever going to sparkle? If your parents doled out detrimental beliefs, slowly but surely the truth of who you are got buried and you developed an unhealthy relationship to yourself.

But here’s the great news: their beliefs were based on THEIR experiences and had nothing to do with you! And they meant no harm—they were just seeing things through their own lens and have no other perspective to draw upon.

What you must get is that all the bad beliefs you grew up accepting about yourself are not who you are. The reality is you were born perfect with a brilliant diamond of light at your core. This is your unique essence, your truth. You don’t have to DO anything to prove your worth.

Just being you, right here, right now, means you are incredibly SPECIAL and VALUABLE.

To fully grasp this truth, sit quietly, imagine a beam of pure, sparkling Divine white light coming down from the heavens and entering your body. As this light touches the core of your Being, see your soul light up just like a Tiffany diamond showcased under the brightest of lights – its brilliance taking your breath away. When you connect to this energy, fully feeling it and befriending it you will understand who you really are. Get to know YOU and your MAGNIFICENCE and you will become your biggest groupie:-)

How to Open Your Heart and Communicate with Love

September 9th, 2011

Letting love flow freely!

Do you ever find yourself wanting to love freely but something’s holding you back? Or wanting to communicate openly and honestly from the heart but you can’t get the words out and are terrified of being vulnerable? It kinda feels like your heart is landlocked and sadly, those moments where great connection can be made are lost.

Communication problems can arise when your chakras are out of whack. There are 7 main chakras going from the base of your spine to the crown of your head and they are referred to as energy vortexes. They receive, assimilate and express our life force.

If we have negative, worrisome, doubtful thoughts these sites become clogged or stuck and get in the way of the natural flow of energy. This causes us to become out of alignment with who we really are.

If you want a great love life you’ll want to make sure your heart chakra is clear and flowing freely – otherwise self-acceptance, self-love and the ability to love others will be compromised. If you have unresolved pain from past issues of the heart or your current relationship is disappointing and less than luscious at the moment you will find that you are out of balance and the goal is to get back to a happy and healthy loving state.

Take an honest look at these questions to figure out if your heart center could use a clean out and realignment:
1) Do you love yourself?
2) Are you able to forgive past hurts from others?
3) Do you blame yourself and others for all that’s wrong in your life?

If the answer is yes to any of the above then include these affirmations in your daily health regime:
1) “I am worthy of love”
2) “I release my pain and forgive the past. I am free to love.”
3) ” I am loving to myself and others.”

Take action to clear and open your heart chakra by:
1) Singing.
2) Playing with a child or pet.
3) Taking a walk in nature, admiring the beauty of a flower
4) Figuring out what brings you joy and happiness and doing it!
5) Phoning or spending time with someone you love.

Communication and relationship problems are often caused by the stress our bodies and emotions are challenged with daily. Just like brushing your teeth, make it a ritual to take care of these energy centers to bring them back into harmonious alignment. Doing this on a regular basis ensures you will be your sparkling BEST – communicating with a loving heart to form those deep bonds you not only desire, but deserve☺

Success – What Does it Take?

August 23rd, 2011

Refuse to quit!

I read an article today about what it takes to succeed by one of my favorite mentors – Mary Morrissey. It really inspired me to stay the course with my book no matter what challenges come up. I’m at a point where on the one hand I can see light at the end of the tunnel but on the other I’m getting tired of it and losing some steam so her words came at a PERFECT time for me to remember my end goal and know success is achieved through never quitting.

Whatever project or area of your life you may be struggling with, take a few minutes to read Mary’s motivating message….

“A real success is not someone who has never failed, but someone who has never quit.”

Every one of us has ups and downs in our lives. Sometimes those downs seem so convincing that we’ve thought we are just going to quit in one part of our lives or another. Maybe it’s our health, a relationship or a new project…

Remember that every person experiences what looks like failure or disappointment in their life. A success is not someone who doesn’t fail, but someone who absolutely refuses to quit. Don’t quit today. Play full out and have a great day.”

Let me know if this renewed your hopes and dreams… xo Sherri
