Oh, hi!! It's you.
If you haven't heard, we're moving to Oregon in a few short weeks! I'll be setting up our site at a beautiful new facility called β€οΈ just outside of Portland.
We'll share the journey with you and look forward to seeing you there!
It has been a great blessing to serve each one of you. As we close this chapter, please continue to follow our work individually:

Moving on Dear friends, It is with a heart full of gratitude and love (and it's fair share of grief) that I write to let you know that Herd Spirit is closing its doors in its current form. Ezra continues his extraordinary work as a coach, mentor,... What happened? Some of you may want to know more about how we got here. Truth be told, it's a long story that is probably best shared individually or in some longform article/book someday. Here is the abbreviated version... Four things happened in the course of five months that changed everything fo...

A moment of Zen
If you are ready to open a new life chapter or breakthrough into a higher level of your life, here is your ticket.
This will blow your mind and change your life.
Are you a chameleon?
Do you become whoever you need to fit in any situation?
This showed back up for me yesterday in my mastermind group. I realized that another layer of my βI am not enoughβ voice had a deeper part to it.
It was that nobody wanted me to be me. I was supposed to be seen and not heard as a little child. You know the βsit down and shut upβ. My dad needed me to show up in a certain way, so that he felt good about himself.
I had to be whoever was needed for the situation.
As I grew older, I relied on my ability to become whomever I needed to fit in to any group or situation. In some ways that served me. But it completely got in the way of me being me or even knowing who I was.
It showed up yesterday in my belief that I am not good enough that other people are doing better than me even my clients are more amazing and achieving more than me.
That people will never want to see me, I canβt be myself.
Arrrrgh, I canβt believe it showed up again.
But this time as I recognized it for what it was, I noticed that it dissipated quickly the energy of it moved through my body as I spoke about it.
When it cleared, it left me feeling lighter, more open and more of myself.
The stuck feeling I had been having the past few days cleared quickly as soon as I was able to recognize where it was coming from and then being able to speak about in my group.
The thing is the voices seem to not really ever go away, they find different ways of showing up in a deeper layer. But the good thing is after doing the work I have done they get released quickly and the thing that holds me back is gone.
Somethings I notice really quickly others can take a few days to find the clarity around the stuck-ness.
Working in my group helps those things clear faster.
For you working with a coach is the way to go to figure out how to move past your voices.
We really canβt do it on our own.
Finding support is key.
I look forward to helping you with your beliefs that hold you back, even if you can't see them yet or don't know what they are.
If you are ready to find out what belief is holding you back from the success you are looking for in your business, relationships and life then lets schedule a time to talk and take a look.
I am here for you!
The secret to happiness is to LET IT OUT
When we let the thoughts and feelings move from inside ourselves to outside, we become congruent - our inside and outside align authentically.
As long as we hold it in,
Stuff it down,
Bypass it away,
Suck it up,
The inner conflict continues.
The art of release is profoundly simple, but not easy...the horse knows the way.
Let the magic begin
"I have done decades of various types of growth work in the past: therapies, 12 step, retreats, workshops, but I had never worked with horses before. I had no idea what to expect but this experience was magical and powerful. Gita and Ezra are amazing and the design structure provides experiential knowledge that is so valuable! DO IT!!!"
