Hi, I’m Joel and, if you have a minute, I invite you to reflect on the following questions and see any of them resonate with your experience of life at present -

 

Are you successful, wealthy, and have a great family, yet feeling that cracks are developing in the persona you’ve carefully crafted?

 

Do you feel that things have started to run away from you, a sense of overwhelm at everything that you feel you ‘have’ to do?

 

Are you finding yourself thinking about purpose more frequently, questioning whether what you’re involved in is filling you up?

 

Do you see yourself as a passionate person and that your present life isn’t reflecting that?

 

Do you really know what would light you up but are too afraid to explore how that could become a reality?

 

Do you feel confused about how your drive for money fits with other, more ‘meaningful’, pursuits that you want in life and how to prioritise?

 

Have you been hurt in the past, burned by relationships personally or professionally and found it hard to move on? Is that hindering your emotional state and your performance?

 

Are you actually a really sensitive person yet, somehow, you feel unable to share these emotions with others? Have you developed a put-together persona that is now leaving you feeling isolated and lonely?

 

How’s your relationship? Is intimacy something you’ve cracked like your business or is it something you haven’t managed to figure out yet?

 

Do you see that you’re a leader, a manager and believe that you’re supposed to be the one with the power, yet you feel a pushover, that you’re always giving in and resenting it inside?

 

Do you wonder why people can’t be logical and think like you do?

 

Is it starting to feel like things, people, maybe everything is against you, which doesn’t make sense but…?

 

Are you feeling tired of working so hard, running on old energy, reacting out of fear of?

 

Would you like to connect with a sense of joy, purpose, expansive energy that everyone bangs on about?

 

I hope that my questions brought up some useful reflections for you.

 

I work with uber high-functioning, ‘super-successful’, ‘super put-together’, ‘super-intelligent’ leaders and founders who appear to have it all. I get their experience because I’ve been there. And I know - and if you’re one of them then you know too - that things aren’t always as they seem. That, actually, what you’ve done with such excellence is learned to conceal, suppress, and avoid your ‘weaknesses,’ masking them so flawlessly that for a long time you believed the persona that you created. And there is a cost to being so creatively adaptive, and that’s finding yourself years down the line feeling contracted in your life and feeling a slave to your responsibilities. You might feel out of touch with your inner will, doing things because you ‘have to’ without the sense of freedom to consider what you truly want. 

 

It’s tricky because life out there looks great. It might be that you don’t want anything different, it’s just the way you feel about it, how much energy you have for it, the feeling of powerlessness within your privileged position and the dawning realisation that what brought you to where you are today is now tipping the scales and becoming untenable and unsustainable. It might be that you’re feeling a calling to a deeper sense of mission in your time here on this earth. Probably what you’d really like is some clarity and a space to feel safe to explore all of that.

 

If some of what I’ve said rings true for you, I’m imagining that you’d like to get back in touch with yourself, to reconnect with your most intimate parts,your sense of purpose, love, and expansiveness.

 

The work we do together is not therapy. It’s not coaching, it’s not leadership. It’s something bigger.

 

It’s powerful.

 

At this level, it's all about relationships, external and internal. Your relationship with success, relationship with money, relationship with your body, relationship with people, relationship with God, and ultimately with your Self. Everything, at this level, is relationship. You want to move forward and you need to look back to do so. It’s a delicate balance. And one I would be privileged to find with you.

 

If this sounds interesting, I invite you to get in touch. I’d be happy to have an initial conversation with you to answer any questions you have and make sure that this feels like something that you could benefit from. We can then book an initial chemistry session to check that we feel a compatibility to embark on this sacred journey. And, if it feels right, we can then look at a course of six sessions to deepen the work together. That may be all we need, or it may be that you would like to continue - my way of working is transparent and collaborative so you always feel that you are in control of your journey.

 

Given the unique needs of each client, I offer this process at my practice in Edgware, online, potentially at your place of work (if it is conducive) and also out in nature if that is your preference. You are bigger than the particular details of your life and I want to honour that larger sense of perspective and wholeness by curating the appropriate space for you.
