Book COACHING Sessions
I enjoy working with Artists, Entrepreneurs, Innovators and such. If you are one and you are stuck in some aspect of your life or confused about decisions to make or lost or struggling to forge ahead, please reach out to me.
My work is to help folks do their work in the world. To help them loosen habitual patterns, to notice issues in new light, unentangle from past where it is important, and reclaim body to forge ahead with new energies.
I am both a coach as well as trained to work with trauma and past painful events.
I use a variety of tools — from body sensing, metaphor play, mental spatial tools, systemic coaching practices, art, neurolinguistic processes, and more. I use what works well with someone, shifting processes as needed.
Mostly I am here to help hold your world a bit more loosely, with a bit more curiosity, and hopefulness.
My work with my clients is deep and is based on my body’s ability to tune in well. Because it is so intense, I intake only a small number of clients at a time. Please check in with me if there is an opening.
The Lightweaver Way
My approach to coaching and training is systemic and decolonizing. I recognise the colonial forms of behaviour management and behaviour modification to protect status quo of sociocultural relations. I recognise how it has been used to suppress unsuitable expressions and the many histories that make for a poor self-image.
The Lightweaver coaching and training approach is founded on four principles:
- Acceptance and Discrimination: We are anchored in the Reinhold Niebuhr’s Serenity Prayer:
God Grant me the serenity
to accept things that I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
2. Suffering is transcontextual: Many contexts, current and historical, make for this moment’s suffering. There are influences of history, culture, family, economics and more. There are relationship struggles with other beings. That what is experienced is not confined to an individual but to the woven relationships within which they exist.
3. Emergence not Procedures: The agony of the moment is anchored on many pegs and swirls with known and unknown factors. Effort is to tend to issues personally and systemically – sleep, rest, gut, nervous system, memories, body, relationships and support an organic emergence of a way out/over.
4. Learning to learn as a regenerative personal practice: A key aspect of the coaching/training process is to notice how we attend, interpret and categorise worlds. And the nudge is to become loose and flexible and intake diverse patterns. Make perception wide and soft. Learning is a consequence of broadening inner horizons.
Eligibility
If we both don’t know each other, then I prefer a warm up time either on email or phone to check suitability.
Please be ready to commit to at least 3 months of working together and ideally longer for fruitful change.
Coaching is a two-way process. It is not a surgery. Your ability to participate, reflect and apply is equally important.
I sometimes facilitate paid and free group sessions. If you are keen to be on my list, please email.
