Ginny WhitelawCognitive, Kinesthetic, Spiritual, Uncategorized, Volitional

Are you feeling an urgent calling to make an impact with your life?
Then share the next few minutes with Ginny Whitelaw, a Zen Master & NASA-trained executive who trains people from all over the world in how to lead with purpose — and how to feel the difference when they do.
 
Does this sound familiar?

You want to make a difference, but you don’t know how to do so.

You want to manifest the vision that’s in your heart, but you get caught in fear, anxiety or self-doubt.

You want to live and lead on purpose, but you can't seem to focus on what's important or get others moving with you.

You want to pursue a big vision, but find yourself drowning in complexity and overreacting to your circumstances.

You want to bring your best to your family and loved ones, but they're the ones who see your worst.

Did you raise your hand to any of the above?

Good. You’re not alone. Everyone who wants to make a difference feels those ways at times. And you are in the right spot, at the right time, with the right guide ready to support your growth.

I can help you break through those barriers and tap into the next level of your own purpose and true, embodied power.

 


Imagine if you could...
  • Lead at your best.

  • Lead from your resilient, centered, agile self.

  • Become the instrument for leading in the exact way needed by your current situation or goals.

  • Experience a way to thrive in disruptive times, and the power you have to reframe everything you experience.

 
Introducing Lead With Purpose.
A brand-new, groundbreaking, self-directed online course that will help you learn to build within yourself:
Image
1
Become your best self
Leadership skills and physical practices that allow you to get beyond complexity, and make you more resilient, agile, connected, and better able to get results in disruptive times.
2
Connect beyond mind
Since most tension is unconscious, we need deeper tools than mind to release it. You’ll learn practices to drop tension, accelerate Integral development, and open the door to the wisdom of connectedness.

3

Breathe with power
Learn to breathe the way the world’s most present leaders do, which allows you to overcome fear and anxiety, and lead from a centered place of still, powerful calm.

4

Master the four types of energy
Leadership is turning precious energy into matter: the energy of ideas and purpose into things that matter in people’s lives. You can have energy for the things that matter most to you, and use one of the four types of energy, in the right way, for the right purpose.

5

Listen fully
When you listen so deeply you can feel others in your body, when you can feel them in your nervous system, you can lead anyone toward your vision. Listen quietly, and lead from there.

6

Stop fighting time
Get beyond the distractions, furious pace and a time-scarcity mindset, and get yourself into the abundance of time that happens when you resolve separation and stop fighting reality. Bring time inside you, where you don’t have limited time but time comes through you as a source of power.

7

Dreams realize you, not the other way around
YOU are the step between between your dreams and their results. Your dreams matter. They will change you just as you realize them. The future will come through you and will shift you toward the “you” you will become.

8

Be calm amongst difficulty
Soften your resistance and tension inside of difficult circumstances in order to lead with centeredness and relaxed agility that lets you still be whole.

9

Let questions guide you
Flip beyond analytical thinking and “sit” with a question, letting the answer come to you.

10

Lead others
Enter a more connected state, and allow your clarity and centeredness to influence and inspire others more effectively.

In all of these areas and more, leading with purpose is not just occurring in your head, it’s occurring throughout all of you. It is a difference you can feel.
