Warriors at Work

I am re-releasing this podcast conversation from early February. As we are all working from home, many of us are looking at our life through the lens of meaning and purpose and this conversation with Sharon can help!

Visioning and designing are not just words we use as avenues to self-discovery.
They are powerful instruments of learning that help individuals and organizations
unlock the greatness within. The talented and creative Sharon Lipovsky brings her
wisdom to this subject through the work of her company, Point Road Studios.
Sharon works with individuals, organizations and teams who are ready to set
a vision, lead with intention and act on purpose. In our conversation, we talk about
how our deeply held convictions and our greatest watershed moments play a part in
Sharon’s “Designing Yourself Method” and “Visioning”. Sharon reminds us of the
internal shifts that can occur when we reconnect with our imagination, listen and
surrender. If you have been feeling a stirring for something more in your life, this
conversation is for you!

Reiki Healing is a tool that has been in use since the 19th century. It works by channeling positive energy into your body, with Reiki masters and practitioners typically placing their hands on the affected areas of the body that need a boost. Your body then takes in the energy where most needed. I chose this subject for a podcast conversation because I have benefited greatly from the guidance that Reiki masters have offered me especially when there was a mind and body disconnection. Karen Foote, Massage Therapist and Reiki Healer is a gifted intuitive and down to earth professional bodyworker, and her work helps people reconnect with their mind, body and spirit.

Not too long ago the word and practice of Mindfulness was met with tremendous resistance and skepticism but thanks to the leaders of Bridgewater, LinkedIn and Ford (to name just a few) the business world has a significant appetite for mindfulness as a way to reduce stress, improve memory, enhance focus and manage emotions.
