The Methodology

I had the greatest honor of chatting with my long time friend Sean Fortune. We both have a love and affinity to running, and I wanted to dive deeper into the perspective of a person who has morphed their passion into a career; Sean has described running as the most meaningful thing in his life, besides relationships. As a professional coach, Sean spoke on the endless physical and emotional benefits to running, but also brought up that running is not for everyone - and that's ok! The theme seemed to be: Just get moving in any way!

Since 1998, Sean has been a fixture in the New York City running community in many different roles - athlete, coach, fundraiser, event officiant, and event organizer. Central Park Coaching was founded in 2008 to provide best in class one-on-one running coaching services. Central Park Coaching's mission is to help runners fulfill their potential and build a lifelong love of the sport. Our missions foundation is based on the core values that lead to success in all aspects in life: passion, hard work, commitment, education. Sean believes running and exercise have the power to transform an individual, and by extension change the world. With that in mind, he's coached every level of runner: youth, novice, collegians, post-collegiate elites, and adults of all levels. His vast personal experience in high-level running lens expertise and technical knowledge to his friendly, motivational style of coaching. In addition to impacting thousands of runners in his various coaching roles, Sean has also been a featured guest on Sirius XM's Doctor Radio discussing youth running | Profiled in the New York Road Runners' Fall 2013 magazine & Bella magazine June 2017 | Featured in Poland Spring's 2011 NYC marathon print ad campaign | Served on the inaugural USATF-NY Executive board as V.P. Member Services and Manhattan Borough Representative | Frequent contributor to running / fitness / health articles including: GQ, NYMAG, ReFinery29, Women'sHealth, Greatist.com, SHAPE magazine, The Joyful Approach, Tough Mudder, Aaptive.com, BellaNYC, WebMD, and many more.

On this weeks episode, I sat down with healer Steph Dodds where we dove into EFT. What is EFT? Tapping or EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is a gentle and effective way to discharge emotional distress, negative thoughts, and repetitive patterns so we may be present for our lives. It can disarm our fear response, so we may let go of distress and not continue to replay it, re-enact it, and recreate it in our day-to-day lives.

Steph is an EFT & Matrix Reimprinting Practitioner and founder of the Emotional Freedom Academy where she is able to share EFT education with the world. Steph has 15 years' experience as a Wellness Educator & Coach including being a Certified Holistic Nutritionist & Yoga Instructor.

With all of her experience, she found the missing component to success for most people is the emotional component behind lifestyle choices. This is why she has fallen completely in love with EFT, created "Tapping with Steph" YouTube channel, and is passionate about helping others break through limiting beliefs with these powerful and life changing tools.

She also is the Author of "From Heartbreak to Soulmate with the Magic of Tapping" on the DailyOM and teaches EFT level 1 & 2 in Sacramento, Ca and via Zoom, facilitating a monthly tapping club.

On this weeks episode, I sat down with healer Tegan Treacy. Tegan is a New York based healer who is focused on helping others move past layers of conditioning to return to wholeness. Part of the human condition is experiencing ourselves in separation. Through this experience, we encounter numerous issues whether physical, mental, emotional, or energetic. Simply put, an issue is anything that prevents us from being present and open to life. Issues are complicated to work with since they hold conditioning on all levels of the human energy system from the physical body to the personality to the chakra system and so much more. Every issue also holds a consciousness component, which is why in order to heal we need a method that is not only able to free us from all aspects of conditioning but also clear our attachment to these issues. When we see through the lens of these issues, we experience the world as separate and feel disconnected to love, peace, and joy, which are our natural state of being and only accessible through the present moment. Returning to wholeness is returning to love and the present where every moment is truly magical. Tegan channels divine consciousness to reawaken your system to the truth of what it has always been. The freer our systems are, the freer we become from our issues. It is returning to wholeness on every level.

Rooted in transformative coaching, I offer what I like to call The Alchemy. The Alchemy session was designed for one to experience a transformation through intuitive & therapeutic conversation. It is first activated by full embodiment of active breathwork and energy healing.

I formulated an integrative, 2-tiered life system that encompasses twelve tenants of daily disciplines and tools for transformation, which stem from holistic and spiritual principles. When one embarks on this Methodology, the alchemizing behaviors and non-serving emotions begin experiencing alignment and states of Joy, Love and Freedom are projected. This is an approach one must commit to, which is why I named it The Methodology by The Joyful Approach!

Research has found that the time around an election increases the levels of stress across the nation — regardless of who will be getting our vote. Constant media coverage and debates in the home, workplace, or on social platforms, along with concerns about how the result of the election will affect our lives and society, all have the potential to have a negative impact on our well-being. In the latest episode of The Methodology podcast, I discuss how to control election anxiety to protect our mental health at a time of great tension and uncertainty around us — while still engaging in this vital process.
