Ryan and Heidi introduce a new book club series of podcasts on the book The 15 Commitments Of Conscious Leadership. You don't have to be a leader in the traditional way we think of leadership to benefit from this book- You are already the leader of your own life even if you don't currently lead a team or family. 

Book Description: 

You'll never see leadership the same way again after reading this book.

These 15 commitments are a distillation of decades of work with CEOs and other leaders. They are radical or provocative for many. They have been game changers for us and for our clients. We trust they will be for you, too.

Our experience is that unconscious leadership is not sustainable. It won't work for you, your team, or your organization in the long term. Unconscious leadership can deliver short-term results, but the costs of living and leading unconsciously are great.

Fear drives most leaders to make choices that are at odds with healthy relationships, vitality, and balance. This fear leaves a toxic residue that won't be as easily tolerated in an increasingly complex business environment.

Conscious leadership offers the antidote to fear. These pages contain a comprehensive road map to guide you to shift from fear-based to trust-based leadership. Once you learn and start practicing conscious leadership, you'll get results in the form of more energy, clarity, focus, and healthier relationships. You'll do more and more of what you are passionate about and less of what you do out of obligation. Your team will get results as well. Drama and gossip will all but disappear, and the energy and resources that fueled them will be redirected toward innovation and creativity.

Any one of these commitments will change your life. All of them together are revolutionary.

In this episode, Ryan and Heidi discuss how we can begin to create the life we most desire by acting and living as if we are just one step ahead of our current perceived reality.

Our brains are always working to create repetitive and predictable algorithms for what's going to happen in the future and it works to keep us in the same experience of life day-to-day. However, we have the unique opportunity to override the system and intentionally plant new imagery and thoughts around who we desire to BE and the life we want to live. This is wonderful and exciting news!!

In this week’s episode, we dive into the topic of letting go in order to discover your true nature and create a different experience of life. Ryan talks about how to let go of thoughts and feelings that make us feel constricted, separate, or not enough.

When we are caught in these lower-vibration feelings we must be able to bring our attention to the experience by becoming aware of it, accepting it, and allowing it to move through us.

These lower vibrations keep us in a patterned and predictable experience of life. When we practice the 3 A’s we are launched into willingness, acceptance, joy, and peace. Life becomes a limitless experience. When we let go of trying to control- we feel more in control.

The 3 A's:

• Attention- Bring your full attention to the present moment and the sensations happening in your body.
• Acceptance- No judgment, no narrative. Allowing Liking Circuits to fire up so you can receive the gift.
• Allowance- Allow the disturbance to be there and pass through you without resistance.

The holiday season can be a busy and stressful time of year but it's also a wonderful time to take inventory and simplify areas of your life that have become cluttered. Removing what is no longer serving you creates what we call “The Void” in the Cycle of Transformation- making space for more intentional shifts to happen. In this episode, we discuss ways you can invite spaciousness into your life including decluttering the following:

• Your physical environment
• Your calendar/ time commitments
• Your mental space/ focus/ attention
• Your emotional and spiritual space
