Claiming Your Calling &
Translating It Into Your Livelihood
- -Do you find yourself marketing and hiding?
- -Are you at a crossroads, but have too many options?
- -Do you love what you do, but it’s challenging financially?
- -Are you making good money, but tend to spend it as fast as you make it?
- -Are you yearning to find your calling and translate it into your livelihood?
If so, know that you aren’t alone and that I can help. I’ve been working with Spiritual entrepreneurs and people in career transition for many years, helping them claim their calling and translate it into their livelihood.
I know the toll it takes to be doing work that you’re ill-suited for, but don’t know what else you want to do with your life. The costs can be high when you aren’t on your path. It goes something like this…”when I make enough money doing (fill in the blank), then I will follow my calling.” Here are some of the aspects of your life that might be suffering because of it–your finances, health, relationships, stress level, emotional state –to name a few.
Or, you may know what your calling is and are attempting to follow it, but somehow you’re slightly off track. You are close, but something is “off” and you don’t know what it is. When you try to put yourself out there you find yourself marketing and hiding. You so want to break through, but just haven’t found the “sweet spot” of being on your path and having it work for you personally and financially.
Trust me when I say that I know the energy that will get freed up if you step out in faith and claim your calling. It’s there…truly it is. You probably already know the price you’re paying by resisting that inner nudging–that knowing deep down inside that you’re not doing your work. The impact on your health, however, might come as a surprise. There was a time when I thought following my calling was a frill. After reading Cancer as a Turning Point many years ago I realized, it not only isn’t a frill but, it is essential to your health and well-being. Lawrence LeShan researched what most helped mobilize people’s immune system. He found that…
“the single most influential thing that mobilized cancer patient’s immune systems
was when they connected with a dream or vision and acted on it.”
Lawrence LeShan, author of Cancer as a Turning Point
Finding and claiming your calling is a lot like putting a puzzle together, except they don’t come all neatly packaged in one box. More likely, they are scattered in the recesses of your mind and need to be collected in order for your mission and calling to reveal itself. As you start putting the puzzle pieces together the picture that emerges may come as a surprise or it may be so familiar to you that it faded into the background long ago. Finding your calling requires carving out time and space in your life to collect the known puzzle pieces and to allow the missing ones to be revealed from within. The reward for engaging in this process is a sense of aliveness and deep satisfaction that comes from endeavoring to become fully who you are.
“The moment you begin doing what you really want to do,
it becomes a different kind of life.”
Buckminster Fuller
Most programs only go as far as helping you find your calling. But, the bigger challenge is claiming your calling and translating it into your livelihood. This program will guide you, step by step through the process of finding your calling all the way to translating it into your livelihood. Yes, that means looking at how much money you want to (need to) earn and if what you have in mind is viable. First pass, it may not look like it is viable, but if it’s yours to do, then it’s back to the drawing board to explore what will make it work (versus simply giving up.)
Most importantly it will help you manage your yeah but’s and inevitable monkey mind that gets triggered. You’ll learn a lot, do a lot of discerning and reality testing. This isn’t a “sit on the couch” and dream about it (though there is some of that.) You’ll be encouraged and supported in getting out and trying out your ideas. Experimenting is the name of the game at this stage! I’ve helped clients connect with and experience the thrill of claiming their calling and translating it into their livelihood and I can’t wait to help you do the same.
I hear many of the same concerns over and over again from Spiritual seekers like you. Any of these sound familiar?
- You think you should be able to do it by yourself or you’ve wasted a lot of money and time with people and systems that weren’t all that helpful for your specific situation.
- You connected with your calling and acted on it, but didn’t think through the financial implications. Big oops!
- You focused on just the numbers and then your vision had no “juice.”
- You wanted support in following your inner guidance, but ended up feeling dismissed or pushed to adapt someone else’s agenda.
- You need someone who helps you figure out what YOU need to do to be successful. Participating in a huge group is good for networking, but not for getting the kinds of answers and support that come with direct, personal attention.
- You have too many options to choose from and need help sorting which direction suits you and how you want to live your life.
It’s no wonder people go into overwhelm, or worse, give up. That’s where the Claiming Your Calling Program fills the gap. Believe it of not, you CAN find and claim your calling and leave behind all those years of feeling stuck in work that doesn’t fit you. How do I know? Because I’ve helped people do it over and over again over the past 25 years. I bring a unique combination of financial and business expertise and the ability to guide you in a friendly, fun, straightforward way. I also understand the impact your self worth has every step of the process and so address that part as well. I know it can seem daunting sometimes so know I’m there to reach out a hand or simply walk through those scary times with you.
You can claim your calling and learn how to translate it into your livelihood–in 8 short weeks. It’s long enough to give you space for the ideas to distill and short enough that you maintain your focus. Think of it as a gentle intensive.
It’s gentle in that I’ll help you with your individual situation. It’s intensive in that we’ll be going through a fair amount of exercises in a short time, but that is a good thing. You know yourself better than anyone else. At the same time, I’ve walked this path myself so I know the questions to ask to take you deeper than you can go on your own.
When you connect with and claim your calling…finally…you will:
- Wake up earlier because you can’t wait to do what needs to be done.
- Find it much easier to say “no” to what isn’t yours to do.
- Feel excited and enthusiastic. You may notice strangers smiling at you because you’re happier.
- Feel solid in who you are and what you know.
- Want to be seen and want to share what you do because you know the difference it’ll make in someone’s life.
- Make more money because you are marketing, rather than marketing and hiding.
- Feel a new found sense of peace, congruence, and ease.
- Find it easier to speak your truth and experience more equanimity in your relationships even if others don’t agree with you.
- Have more energy for who and what is important to you.
- Notice the voices of doubt subsiding and an the emergence of a deep down knowing inside that you’re on the right path.
