Learning the Business of Being a Business Woman

Written by Rosie on . Posted in Being in Business

Veronica asks:

Dear Dr. Rosie,
Here I am in my fifties and I’m now just finally feeling passionate about my work. I was in the field of special education for 30 years and though I loved it I never felt completely fulfilled. I think I was supposed to feel fulfilled and so I just kept at it. Due to many contributing factors I was not invited back to teach. Though disappointing, this gave me an opportunity to really do some deep soul searching to discover and recognize what’s mine to do.

I’ve always loved creating but never until now considered being a graphic artist. I’ve had to start from the beginning by taking courses at the local community college. I’m half way through my degree and am anxious to get started. I’m in a very similar place as Usha. I can really relate to her story. What should I do next?

From Dr. Rosie:

Dear Veronica,
I’m really glad to hear that even after all these years you are willing to keep your heart open to what feels passionate to you. It’s happening more and more that women and men are willing to take risks, exploring what’s possible by following their passion. I believe by doing so you model for others that living a fulfilling life means less stress, more ease and more joy in the world. Thanks for being one of those people.

Empowering Yourself into a Successful Career

Usha asks:

Hi Dr. Kuhn,

Your articles light up my day! They are kind of answering the next hurdle I’m facing.

I read your most recent write up Start to Finish about your mother not working for a living and being taken care of, and that you wanted that lifestyle too. I totally relate to this. My mother is a homemaker and I imagined that I always wanted to work. However, I found that when opportunities came I just didn’t go for it. I think I always wanted to be taken care of financially. Now, I want to get out of this comfort zone and I’m committed to making it happen.

How do I do this and keep myself afloat? I don’t know if the feeling of being able to take care of myself financially will make me feel empowered but this is what’s driving me. There are times when no one turns up for my yoga class. I’m so discouraged when this happens. At other times, people call and ask for my support. This feels so fulfilling! This is such a dilemma! I worry about whether I can make it over time; will students come?; the bottom line: How will I earn a living? I’ll be receiving my certificate in July and will then begin charging for my yoga classes. Will this work? Please help!

P.S., I like the way you write. It motivates me to take another step ahead and feel closer to my goal of being empowered (financially).

Usha

From Dr. Rosie

Thanks Usha for your letter.

Usha has lots of questions and I suspect she is providing herself with a lot of answers that aren’t answers at all but only potential “what ifs” that, more often than not, create worry and anxiousness. So many of us cultivate scenarios in our minds to counter the “I don’t know if I can do this”; “I don’t know if people will come”; “I don’t know if there’ll be enough money.” These “I don’t knows” are part of every endeavor we take on, and, are probably the most important challenge to face. What would you have to be with, Usha, if you empowered yourself to stay present in the moment with the “I don’t know?”

Transformational Coaching

Written by Rosie on . Posted in Coaching

The “Essential Self” is the current condition of centuries (life times) of evolution of the individual Soul. Authentic, unrestrained, unconditional, and unfiltered expression of our this true self in each and every moment is critical to the un-concealing of and alignment with our “Essential Self.”

Transformational coaching not only cultivates awareness of the Essential Self it also has a listening that reveals this Self in a way that elevates its significance to primary. When an individual begins to tap into their Essential Self, they are inspired to uncover more and more as the quality of experience that arises from authentic living feels generative and profoundly empowering by nature. In the end the True Self will accept the Essential Self as home. The divisive constructs of our culture slowly evaporate allowing effortless expansion and actualization of our Oneness to continue.

Training to be a transformational coach is an intensive in cultivating intelligence through self-study, deep listening and the practice of curiosity. Every aspect of of Life – including Business, Health, Spirituality and Relationship is responsive to the foundational practices found within a transformational coach.

Currently, individual training is facilitated by Dr. Rosie Kuhn. If you have an interest in talking with Rosie about the process of becoming a transformational coach, contact her at rosie@dr-rosie.com
