The 6 Elements of Transformation | # 2 - AWARENESS
In this series of six videos, I go over The 6 Elements of Transformation and how to incorporate each of them into our professional and personal lives.
They are the core facets of conscious living that, when applied to our endeavors, allow us to actively co-create from a place of ease and flow, aligned with our highest selves and with our soul's vocation.
In this second video, I share with you the power of AWARENESS as a starting point in changing your experience of life and entrepreneurship.

I have two very big things going on in my life. I share them with you as I sit in the pediatric emergency room. Again.
I have two adolescent children in and out of the ER on a monthly basis with extreme suicidal and violent thoughts.
I am building my transformational empire, my coaching business.
And here's the thing that's important about this: I don't believe in compartmentalizing life.
Work stuff: here. Personal stuff: here. This is all my life, and it's all happening now.
We live in a world that emphasizes comfort and beautiful images. We are told that when we align with our purpose, everything will get better. Easier. I don't see many people out there talking about the discomfort in our experiences that connect us all. Do you?
Parenting my children - including therapeutic parenting - is my calling. It is a calling for both me and my husband, Steve.
My desire to serve and help people transform and create the lives they wish is also my calling.
And both callings are equally powerful.
Both callings fuel me and initiate me into action. They both require the necessity of my presence, spiritual practice, generosity, and understanding of and willingness to tell the truth.
They also often feel like they are pulling me in different directions. I'm capable of feeling spread thin and thinking thoughts like "I cannot do both of these things at the same time" or "how can I be in two places at the same time?"
This cannot be true.
Why? Because they exist simultaneously in my life right now - so they must exist to support each other. Even more than that, these circumstances coexist to support you.
Your life experiences can feel hard, but they don't have to feel like a struggle. Your life is happening FOR you to support your growth and evolution.
When I experience that thought, "I cannot do both of these things at the same time," I use that as an alarm clock. Where is the friction? What am I attached to? What am I resisting?
Oftentimes, that friction is simply a sign that a shift or a change is needed. When we slow down and practice awareness, releasing attachment to our expectations of ourselves and the expectations of others, the answer is clear. And transformation is the result.
Our life circumstances are the vehicle to our own transformation. If we pay attention.
In the second video of my Six-Part Series, I share with you the power of AWARENESS as a starting point in changing your experience of life. The teachings are not theoretical; they are practical and real, using circumstances and realizations gained from my real life right now. I am learning and teaching in real-time. I invite you to join me.
Does this resonate? Schedule a call to discover what transformation is possible for you right now.
Love,
Alyssa
