Dear Glorious Soul Sisters and Brothers!!!
It is with joy that I am reading all the e-mails about our e-group. I know
passion is ignited when we share about our international e-group because we
care. And the fact that you care means more to me than I can tell you. It makes
me feel so very honored to be a part of this remarkable group of compassionate,
remarkable beings.
The Soul Coaching e-group can be an extraordinary force for good in the
world. For through our collective energy we can, at times, come together to project
energy and light and love into our precious planet.
We also can be an incredible support system for each other. As we support
each other and celebrate the successes of each other, our Soul Coaching
practices (and our lives) will be empowered.

You Are Needed:
I know that through our intent, love, and the sharing of wisdom in our
e-group our lives will improve and expand, collectively and individually. As I
mentioned in your Soul Coaching classes, I believe that our world is potentially in
for a rough ride for the next decade. One of the reasons that I am training
Soul Coaches is that I know that your services will be needed in the years
ahead.
But in a deeper sense, it is not just your coaching skills that will be
needed, but it is your strength, clarity, wisdom and capacity to love fully and
deeply even when it’s hard . . . and even amidst judgement and uncertainly, that
sets you, as a Soul Coach, apart from others.
Your spirit and energy are needed now . . . and will be needed more than ever
in the years ahead.
The exciting thing about these uncertain times is that there is the
opportunity, like never before, to finally fulfill your potential. There is finally
the opportunity to step forward into the energy of a leader, healer and
teacher…. just by being who you are.
For me the Soul Coaching training is more than a seminar for creating awesome
coaches, it is preparation of an energy for the future.
It’s Not an Accident that you are a Soul Coach!!
I know that it is not an accident that you were drawn to the Soul Coaching
training. I believe that you were chosen a very long time ago--long before
this life--to help formulate and assist this process. Whether you are active or
not on the e-group, I believe that each Soul Coach is a part of an energy
matrix that will go through a strengthening and even a vibrational shift in the
years ahead.
As a Soul Coach, I believe that the next three and a half years will be a
time of strengthening, honing and preparing your core/essence. I don’t foresee
something catastrophic at the conclusion of this time period; it’s just that
there is an opening and an opportunity for immense acceleration of inner growth
over this next three and a half-year period for us all as Soul Coaches.
In other words, hold onto your hat, it’s coming!!!
During this time, old limitations and negative pattern and barriers will
potentially come up so they can begin to drop away. As this happens, your
capacity for compassion, your self-esteem and your connection to the Creator will
increase. Potentially, it may not always be easy but this time ahead is a path
of grace and a path of spirit.
Strengthening the Matrix:
On the inner planes I believe that we together are strengthening our matrix
of energy through our individual pathways in life. For me, the e-group is an
important part of this strengthening. As we are willing to share our truth and
at the same time support others on their path we are all empowered.
I know there are times when the Soul Coaching e-group might not seem easy.
There might seem to be more e-mails than you don’t resonate with, or some of
the subjects might not seem helpful to you. Or there might seem to be too much
personal support, or not enough etc. etc., however, beneath the surface of
the e-mails, please remember that there is a divine energy of kindness and love
that is building and strengthening us all.
Site Suggestions:
I’ve appreciated all the great ideas suggested about this e-group. Here are
my ideas as well.
Identification…Who are You? and Where do You Live?:
if you are willing, I’d love to see your full name, class number and area of
the world, as well as your e-mail address (either at the beginning or end of
each e-mail).
I know that it takes a second or so longer to paste this information in,
but I love it when someone does this. For me personally, I feel more connected
to the sender when I can place them in the world. (And we ARE all over the
world! Just in the last seminar, we had people from such a wide spread number
of countries including: Hong Kong, Singapore, France, Norway, England, The
Congo, Thailand, Australia and the United States. Yipeee!!!)
I know that I haven’t been identifying myself, but I will start doing this as
well. For example for me I’ll put:

Personal Support:
I personally love the fact that we support each other in our various up-turns
and downturns in life. (And I sure have felt supported during some trying
times in my life though e-groups.) However, I can understand that for some
people, it gets tedious when there is a call for healing for, the neighbor of a
friend’s friend, etc., for example.
How about if we utilize the healing aspect of the e-group if a situation
personally impacts you deeply, such as for a family member, or your very close
friend, then we can send energy to you as well as the individual.
Also, to reduce the number of e-mails on the International Soul Coaching
e-group, if we have a personal message for someone, perhaps we could e-mail them
personally. (But I have also been extremely guilty of being too quick to hit
the ‘reply button’ and sending to the whole group when I mean to reply to an
individual, so I do know how easily that can happen.)
As a suggestion, if you have a personal one-liner for someone, as much as
possible, if that could be sent to them personally, it would be great. However,
an exception to this might be on the smaller individual class e-groups.
I personally am not in favor of closing these down. For example, there is
one e-group that was formed over ten years ago, after I lead a vision quest
seminar, that is still very active. This group of individuals has been together
through births, deaths, divorces, marriages, career moves, depression, illness
and joyous celebrations, and they continue to send immense love and support to
each other over the years. (I read all e-mails in all e-groups, and feel
honored to do so.)
I foresee that some of the individual Soul Coaching e-groups will continue
for many years into the future.
Topics:
As well as personal support, the larger International e-group is a fabulous
avenue for getting feedback about building your business, supporting your
clients, creating classes for the 28 days, and for general perspective on being a
Soul Coach, as well as numerous other things.
I love the idea of topics being presented and even e-committees formed to
present information to us all.
For example, would anyone like to be on a committee to investigate whether or
not Soul Coaching should register with the IFC (International Coaching
federation) and if the committee decides that it is a good idea, then finding out
what is needed to do this? (I’m not big on joining organizations, but am open
to the idea if the general body of Soul Coaches think it’s a good idea.)
Also I love the idea of sharing information, for example, music that we find
helpful for Soul Journeys or books that have helped us become better in this
field.
Subjects:
I know, I know, I have been a great offender, but I do know that it is
valuable to state in the subject box of your e-mail what the actual subject of your
e-mail is. This way, as we develop archives on various subjects, we can
easily look up the information that we need.
For example, if someone wants to know what essential oils are best in a Soul
Coaching treatment room the subject might read:
‘What Essential Oils are Best for SC?" And the replies might be
"Best Essential Oils for Soul Journeys"
Attachments:
I personally don’t think we should send attachments to the e-group. (Of
course if someone asks you to, you can send an attachment to that person
personally.)
E-mail overload:
As someone who receives up to 200 or more e-mails a day, (I have five e-mail
addresses -- I get them from people who are reading my books or who have done
a seminar with me, as well as friends and family, etc.) I know what it can
feel like when there a zillion e-mails and, as it has been suggested before,
there should be a way on your computer to digest or have all your Soul Coaching
e-mails put into a folder, so it only looks like one e-mail.
(Also, thank god for the delete button.)
Group Moderator:
We actually don’t have a moderator for the Soul Coaching e-group. (If we,
as a group, feel that a moderator is needed then this can also be a topic for
discussion on the e-group.)
However, Allison Harter very generously and kindly has taken time from her
very busy schedule to sign everyone up, (aharter@learningsummit ) (Allison is
the wonderful SC who coordinated adding you to the master SC e-group and
establishing the individual class e-groups.)
Mountains Lions;
Okay. . . I put this in to see if you made it this far. (For someone that
doesn’t like to type, this is a very, very long e-mail for me to write.)
Yesterday I looked out my office window and saw two mountain lions chasing
three deer. Too cool, huh?
They didn’t catch them. (I was kinda glad, but I do know that the lions do
need to eat.) However as I am the new owner of chickens, I immediately took
measures to protect my sweeties. A lion has been coming close to the house lately
and I’m sure that chickens must smell delicious. (Pound for pound mountain
lions are faster, and stronger than tigers. Arrrgggh!!! ) David is building a
chicken coop today..yea!!…lion proof, hopefully.
OKAY you made it to the end of this e-mail!! You deserve a special ice cream
soda in heaven, or else a free trip to Tahiti or something great, but until
the universe decides what, I send you my love…always and forever!!
