Lesson #1: Being Before Doing
You’ve probably heard the reminder that we are human beings, not human doings. Yet so often, we find ourselves stuck in the hustle—in the non-stop doing—that we either burn out or emotionally check out. We disconnect from ourselves, from others, and from the sacred. And in that disconnection, the weight of life can feel so much heavier.
But what if there’s another way? A gentler way.
I believe there is. It’s what I call working from the inside out instead of from the outside in.
Lesson #2: Holding Space
Years ago I did a podcast episode on the topic of Holding Space that went viral. It resonated so deeply with people that I was invited to teach it on TV as well as several other workshops and events both in person and online. I believe what made my own perspective on this topic so profound was integrating the science behind this principle.
Before we begin, I’d love to ask you, what does the concept of “holding space” mean to you? Have you heard the term before?
Lesson #3: Creating Solitude
Welcome to another creator field note in our “Holding Space” series. In this note, we’re going to look at the practice of creating solitude—not as an escape, but as a deeply nourishing way to hold space for ourselves. Because when we carve out time to unplug from the noise of the world and return to our own center, we create the inner clarity and calm that makes it possible to show up more fully for the people around us. Solitude isn’t separation—it’s preparation. It’s how we steady our own nervous system so we can meet others with compassion, patience, and peace.
Raise your hand if you’ve ever struggled with anxiety. How about depression? Comparison? Negative thoughts? Overwhelm? Feeling stuck? Feeling disconnected from yourself, the divine, or your loved ones? Have you ever had a hard time quieting your mind or trusting your intuition? Maybe you’ve longed for more peace, or wanted to be a steadier leader in your family or community?
If so—congratulations. You’re human. And today, we’re talking about a solution that can touch each of these challenges: solitude.
Lesson #4: Powerful Presence
Welcome to another creator field note in our Holding Space series. In this conversation, we explore the transformative power of presence. While solitude creates the space, presence is what fills it. When we are fully present—with our breath, our bodies, our emotions—we step into alignment with our inner wisdom and the divine. In a world full of distractions, being present is how we return to ourselves and to the moment we’re actually living. Presence is how we hold space—not just for others, but for our own experience, one breath at a time.
Living in the present moment is a popular catchphrase these days—probably because our culture makes it incredibly easy to be distracted. In this lesson, I want to share with you why presence matters, the power that lies there, and my favorite way to instantly drop into the present moment.
Lesson #5: Seeing Things as They Really Are
Welcome to another creator field note in our “Holding Space” series. In our last conversations, we’ve talked about what it means to hold space for others—and for ourselves—through presence and solitude. Today, we’re exploring how the stories we tell shape that space. Every interpretation we cling to, every assumption we make, builds or erodes the inner landscape where compassion, truth, and connection live. When we learn to question those stories with curiosity and love, we begin to hold space for ourselves in the most healing way possible. We begin to see things as they really are.
Lesson #6: How Bright is Your Hope
Welcome back to another creator field note in our “Holding Space” series. Over the past few notes, we’ve explored what it means to hold space through presence, solitude, and seeing things as they really are. Today, we’re adding another layer by talking about hope. A virtue vital to our happiness in life. I have found that whatever level of hope I have—there is always a direct correlation to my own sense of well-being. This is not by accident. When hope is high, your own feelings will reflect this. When hope is low, you’ll feel the effects of this as well. My goal for today is to help you take a measurement of your current level of hope, and most importantly, give some ideas on how to raise it up and keep it up!
So…What do you hope for?
Lesson #7: Holding Space for Miracles
Welcome back to our final creator field note in the “Holding Space” series.
Over the past notes, we’ve explored holding space through presence, solitude, truth-telling, and hope.
Today, we arrive at the heart of it all: holding space for miracles. This isn’t about magical thinking or bypassing hard realities—it’s about cultivating a state of being that invites transformation, within ourselves and in the world around us.
