          • #23 What Even IS Coaching?! on Acceptance, Co-Creation, Self-Care, and Coaching Faux Pas with Taylor Elyse Morrison

            the Duality Project is SO excited to share this conversation with the podcast's very first guest: Taylor Elyse Morrison Founder, Facilitator, Coach, and Author.

             

            Taylor, Kate, and Ruby dive deep into:

            - this month's theme of Acceptance,

            - the power of Co-Creation,

            - Self-Care as access to ethics within the Coaching Industry,

            - and how the industry has set itself up for failure by undervaluing the work of coaches and your expertise as the client.

             

            The good news is, we have some ideas (surprise surprise!)

          • #21 Yoga Nidra for Deep Rest with Ruby

            This is a 24 minute, guided Yoga Nidra (aka yoga sleep / NSDR) for deep rest.

            Make yourself comfy, and enjoy!

            Yoga Nidra is an ancient technique where the practitioner enters the deep states of conscious relaxation. It is a systematic practice of moving awareness from our external world to the inner world. It brings us to a state of deep sleep where our senses, intellect, and mind relax.

          • #19 on Community & Connection

            This episode is allllll about connection, community, and how to make those things happen in your life.

            You require a baseline sense of safety *which includes the need of belonging*. What if safety was built into the systems of the community? What would it look like to create a space where belonging was a radical act of inclusion? It would have to be vulnerable, honest, accountable, compassionate... What else? What could that feel like or look like? What would be required? What could be possible?

            In this episode, Ruby hits us with this gem: "Acceptance is an action and it involves welcoming, it's not just tolerance. It doesn't feel good to feel like someone is just tolerating your presence."

          • #18 on Compassion

            In this episode on Compassion, Kate and Ruby talk about how their experience with and understanding of compassion has evolved over the years. Jack Kornfield, an American writer and mindfulness teacher says, "If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete."

            In this episode Ruby hits us with this: "there's a BIG difference between compassion and fixing." And Kate says, "am i actually being helpful or am I just trying to make myself feel less uncomfortable about what I'm seeing in front of me?"

            Compassion can be defined as where empathy meets the willingness to radically be with the suffering.

            Nurture is defined as the process of caring for and encouraging the growth or development of someone or something.

            “And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” — Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
