Personal Crisis

“The world breaks everyone and afterward some are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills.”
Ernest Hemmingway

The struggle in suffering

This is a haunting quote from Hemmingway. After working with hundreds of people in delicate situations, I’ve seen two outcomes from suffering; people become better or bitter.
And when he speaks of those who will not break, I believe he is speaking about those who refuse to get the right help and do the hard work.

Embracing what is broken

We all want to look our best, but our nature fights to keep our wounded places hidden. We need to embrace our brokenness, but it’s scary. The best metaphor to understand healing is from the Japanese art form Kintsugi. It’s a form of art that repairs broken pottery with gold. The most beautiful part of this art form? It doesn’t hide the cracks when displayed. In fact, it intentionally presents them as an even more beautiful creation. Imagine being able to feel great about things that once  hurt you? At your immersion, we work together to honor your broken places once we have filled them with something of greater value.

So what’s an Immersion?

It’s a private two day deep dive experience [usually at a beach Resort] with just me. At the center of this experience, we explore the stories that are holding you back and provide a blueprint to move you forward.

Who’s this for?

This is for any growth-minded person who wants to do “the hard work” without therapy or counseling. It’s for anyone who wants to get out of the funk, the fog, the dark night of the soul that has you wondering, “How am I going to get out of this — and how am I going to be happy again”?

For anyone who feels like they are resisting something they must face and it’s eating away at their happiness and promise for a better future. For anyone who wants to turn a difficult time into a defining moment and start over.
