Getting Connected

4-week virtual workshop series

Tired of feeling disconnected?

Wanting to connect again with yourself and in your relationships?

Looking for tools that help you voice what you want and speak unarguably in relationships?

Join this mini workshop series designed to introduce you to powerful tools, grow your happiness, and deepen your connections.

Connect again!

Connecting authentically takes practice. 
Here’s what you can do. 

Interacting with others can be hard work. Emotions and reactions can happen before we know it, and negative coping patterns can quickly become the norm. But with practice, you can speak your truth in a way that others will hear. 

The Getting Connected virtual workshop series runs over 4-weeks on Thursday evenings in the US / Friday mornings in NZ for 1.5 hours.

You’ll learn powerful tools and skills, and get to integrate these into your life in between workshops. These include knowing how to: 

• Speak your unarguable truth 

• Understand levels of consciousness and learn to choose (again and again) the level of consciousness and story that you want to live from  

• Understand how you drift into unconscious behaviours and what you can do to shift  

• Understand the Karpman drama triangle (hero, villain, victim) and how to shift out of it

Reconnect to yourself and others now!

I have found these tools to be extremely powerful in my own life, both professionally and personally. This framework has become embodied for me because it makes sense on so many levels - neurologically, emotionally, mentally, and, even, spiritually. I love supporting people in connecting to themselves and others in a deeply authentic and unarguable way by translating the wisdom of the body and emotions.

Through these practices, I have learned that I generate my own experience as I walk through life. When I first learned about it, I thought well if they’re not doing it to me, why do I keep feeling this way? Initially I was either blaming myself or others. When I was holding other people responsible, I was focused out there on other people, and not in my own body,  my own experience, my own integrity and my own power. It’s only when I come back in, choose to feel my feelings, take responsibility for them, that I can shift, connect with myself and access my essence. I was convinced that something or someone outside me needed to change in order for me to feel better. I am now willing to see myself as the source, connect with myself first and then connect with others. These practices provide a very loving and accepting approach. Since 2020 I have studied and embodied these practices with US-based teachers, Katie Hendricks and Julie Colwell.
