I often think about the fact I'm in the same situation as my clients. I need to do, again and again, what I talk to them about. I'm not above what I share with others! I'm in it. In life, like we all are. And when I say, This is how you do it. You need to.... it's because that's what I found worked for me, or what I am currently doing.
Many times it feels like I may be only one step ahead of the people I am helping. What I am advising someone to do today may be what I began doing last week or last month. Other times, answers flow through me in response to someone's questions and later in the day, in the middle of my own issues, it dawns on me – I need to do exactly what I was telling my client to do!
We all have individual situations, yet we are all human, and in response to our situation, we are very connected in what we experience and feel. We all deal with the energy we label as embarrassment, or fear, anger, confusion. We have all been through feeling rejected and that parts of us are unacceptable. These feelings connect us and as we learn to sit with the feelings, we are able to sit with another person going through the same process.
