One Woman, Two Hands

I was recently described as 'HK on steroids'. Is that purposeful passion looks like I wondered?  I  describe myself as 'one woman, two hands, inspired by a dream, fuelled with a passion to serve.  I do this as a catalyst to elicit profound relaxation and inner peace through gongs, walking on labyrinths and kundalini yoga.'  

In 2008 I became a certified professional career counsellor to support teens in understanding the links between their values, motivators, skills and interests to craft a career path towards living a life of choice. Two videos I shared with clients were Steve Job's graduation lecture at Stanford and Randy Pausche's Last Lecture. I highly recommend both.

Life is most certainly not linear, sometimes you hit walls, suffer disappointments and loss.  Having a strong identify of who you are, what drives you and why can help you navigate the 'dark nights of the soul'.

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. C.S. Lewis

I express gratitude daily for being able to utilise my myriad skill set to make a difference, to satisfy my curiosity with variety and opportunities for continuous learning.  Last week I was in Los Angeles visiting Don Conreaux who continues to inspire by example - who at the age of 90 is still teaching and looking to the future. 

This week I invite you to reconnect to your passions, pick up that old hobby or start a new one.  Visit a museum, see an old friend, whatever it is to rekindle the get up and go spark that leaves you feeling content and whole.
