Fast Track to Your Dream Life

fiveco-about1

Standing on the precipice of the greatest life you can imagine is liberating. The fact that you have enough gumption to imagine your greatest life in the first place deserves a huge round of applause.

Arriving here usually comes out of necessity. Necessity to change or we will, (possibly in the literal sense) explode. There’s a calling, a yearning, a deep-dwelling, unquenchable desire to serve the world in a way that allows it to be more harmonious, peaceful and full of joy. We grew up thinking, “I’m going to save/change the world.”

The concept seemed to become convoluted as time wore on and questions arose whether we were crazy because everyone and everything around us seemed to tell us that was the case. We wanted to change the world for the better yet we needed to “Stay in school, get a degree and get a good paying job, then explore other options.” This was the “sure and safe way to play it.”

Right?

Well, not for you and I. For us, that’s the sure way to drive us to an early soul death.

When we don’t pursue our truest-wildest heart calling, it creates a life so undesirable and impossible to live, we’d rather not. People who don’t feel this think it’s “unreasonable” and that “there will be things in life that are just hard.”

My beef with these statements is that they often come with an assumption that we’ve had it so easy or that we want to sit on the couch and eat bon-bons. Clearly not the case…hello…who wasn’t listening? CHANGE….the….WORLD… I think we would have picked something different if we just wanted to be… l a z y or take the e a s y road.

Anyway…

If you’re on this precipice (no matter how that looks–going from 6 to 7 figures or finally leaving a job that doesn’t serve you or taking the leap to culinary school) take heed and trust that you’re reading this because NOW IS YOUR TIME. You’re not too late or too early.

You’re in perfect timing. Welcome to the opportunity to change the rest of your life.

Rest for a Tired Heart + Soul {Short Meditation}

Beach Hammock

Heart ache and heart break have been prominent for many over the last few weeks. Major changes in careers, relationships, states of health, worldly affairs and mortality as we know it has happened quickly, fiercely, often devastatingly and without notice.

In the wake of the Boston explosions, a lot of confusion, sadness and helplessness has  further set in.

You are not alone and we will get through this together.

I invite you to take a moment and allow your body and mind to simply rest with the 5 minute guided meditation below.

Sending love and prayers your way.

A Pep Talk to Myself

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

After living in Hawaii for 6 months, something developed in my psyche that tells me to just take a vacation when things get really challenging. This doesn’t align with my true values of “doing everything I can for as long as I can with what I have” to make the world a better place. It’s an inconvenient reaction.

It’s not my nature. It’s not part my life purpose and it’s NOT cool. When this happens, I have to catch it, dig deep and find the burning passion inside of me so that I can move forward.

We all need pep-talks sometimes,
here’s the recent pep talk I gave to myself:

Saddle up + ride or get off the horse. Sell it. Walk away. Fold.

Really? You’re not going to do that. Focus. Game face. You’re the girl who can make anything happen. Won’t take “no” for an answer. All in or not at all.

Dear Lover: The Feminine Call

Dear Lover,

Present presence to me and I will present you my world. My body, my mind, my spirit is yours.

Come, witness me with your touch.

Hold me, ravish me, engage me, love me, take me open to the infinite.

I don’t care where you come from, the haunted past is gone.

I want you, all of you in this moment. Present.

Be here with me to explore the magnitude of your greatness. The depths of your pain and pleasure. I see your hurt, give it to me and let me heal it. I see your heart in pain, share it with me and I will take it from you.

I see you lover and you’re safe in my arms.

Your power, your conviction, your masculinity, your strong body, pull me in to it. Your touch makes me vibrate and invites a state of surrender.

Tear off my layers, caress my curves, meet my neck with your lips, pull me further into you.

Be here with me, hold me, ravish me, engage me, love me, lay me down.

Hold nothing back, penetrate my life with all you are. Deeper still until our boundaries dissolve and we begin to fade into oneness. Even deeper until pure ecstasy emerges in the moment and our bodies, vibrating against each other, echo the tune of divine euphoria.

Present presence to me and I will present you my world, welcome.

Deeply devoted,

Your Lover

The Most Terrifying Thing I’ve Ever Done

20130323_120729

I’ve kayaked over 25 foot waterfalls, jumped out of airplanes, flown off cliffs on my mountain bike and been on national TV. I’ve packed up and moved cross country multiple times, without knowing a soul and knew it would work out perfectly (and it has).

What I haven’t spent time doing, is embodying one very important quality.

On March 22nd (my Birthday), I chose a theme for my next journey around the sun. This happens every year and it’s always related to something I’ve discovered about myself in the previous year that needs to be worked on in order to take my life to the next level.

This year’s theme/quality is hot pink vulnerability.

More specifically, safe + healthy vulnerability that invites emotional and spiritual growth in ways that I have yet to do.

Physically, I am pretty fearless. Emotionally, (I learned last year) I’m not.
