The #1 Thing That

Sonia — Sun, 22 Jan 2023 20:04:10 +0000

If I’ve seen this once, I’ve seen it a thousand times…

For over two decades, every accomplished professional woman I’ve ever worked with has come to me with a hard-to-describe longing. There’s something deep inside that she aches for but can’t find – in any lasting way…

- A deeper sense of fulfillment
- Peace within her heart
- To not have to work so hard
- To have meaningful and consistent support in her life

To feel as powerful as she looks on paper
To make a bigger impact
To demonstrate to herself and others that she can be the leader she wants to be
To feel in love and have it last
To really, truly know herself
To feel valued, wanted, appreciated and celebrated
To feel safe in a world that can feel so insane and scary.

These experiences are all possible when you understand that the skills that allow you to succeed are not necessarily the skills that allow you to thrive. Thriving skills are uniquely specific and the #1 thing that makes all the difference is…

An Optimized Environment

It’s like this:

A flowering tree sprout (that’s you) can manage to push up through the cracks of a sidewalk in a concrete jungle. The sprout may survive and even grow amidst the smog and the pedestrians who threaten to crush it with every step. But it will never thrive and flourish without the proper space and environment to be exquisitely, fully expressed.

It is the environment that allows the tree-being (you) to grow in impact and influence, embody the power of its presence, attract (versus hunt for) all that it needs, and experience life’s support (i.e. the wind, birds, and healthy water run-off) to spread it’s contribution across the lands – through it’s seeds, blooms, and fruits that benefit other ecosystems.

As an accomplished professional woman chances you may be battling non-optimum environments that are bare, harsh, lonely, competitive, and scary – not fully grasping that anything else is possible because it’s all you’ve ever known. You’re smart, so you know something’s not working, but you feel powerless to actually change it.

You can thrive by tapping into the power of an optimized environment.

But… it’s up to you. I can help you, but you have to be willing to step outside of the environment you know.

My only job as a fulfillment and empowerment coach is to create and nurture optimized environments. As a student or client, you have only one job. (Hint: It’s not to work harder). Your job is to show up in the environment. That’s where the magic happens.

Don’t believe me? Allow me to inspire you.

In the last 2 years, I decided to gather hard data about what thriving and flourishing looks like when smart women show up for themselves in an optimized environments.

On average, in 3 months or less, students experienced…

A 300% increase in their level of fulfillment

A 70% decrease in their level of struggle

And real-world results which included the following:

The manifestation of dream-come-true homes
5 and 6-figure sales came in out of the blue
Stalled deals closed
Long-standing, oppressive debts were resolved
A way to pay for something that was deemed “unaffordable” was magically revealed
Job offers came in
Huge career opportunities simply appeared
Eating and exercise habits quickly became preferred and natural
Old, long-standing anxiety and wounds shifted into feelings of resolution and peace
The “creative dam” burst and inspiration flowed
Angst from unrequited love morphed into peace, freedom and new possibilities
Long wished-for pregnancy happened
Relationships took the next step in commitment
Leaders starting kicking-ass and celebrating big wins in their professional environments
And so much more…

My next 3 month optimized environment begins January 31st.

How do you relate to lack?

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Fri, 06 May 2022 16:30:41 +0000

Lack is not a fact. Lack is a feeling. It is the feeling you feel in our body when you believe the thought that you require more than you’re currently able to access.

This bears repeating:

Lack is the feeling you feel in your body when you believe the thought, “I require more than I’m currently able to access.”

This means that when you experience a sense of lack, you are dealing with:

-Feelings
-Beliefs
-And thoughts

As long as you relate to lack as if it is a fact, you will struggle. Yet, as you understand that your feelings, thoughts, and beliefs manifest your experience, you reclaim more and more of your power when you perceive or experience lack.

We start by remembering this premise: What you resist persists. What you receive reveals new possibilities.

Resistance occurs when we attempt to change, fix or control what is here. However, when you receive your feelings, beliefs, and thoughts – with compassion – they will move on through.

The next time you feel lacking, notice, stop and own the experience. Take a breath and say to yourself, “I am struggling with lack.” Awareness is the first step in receiving.

Next, let the entire experience be here. Breathe into the feelings in your body. Let the feelings be here with compassion. Let the thoughts and beliefs be here by naming them.

-I believe I don’t have enough.
-I believe I need to drum up business.
-I believe I have no friends.
-I believe I am alone.
-I’m afraid I’ll be homeless.

Be still. Breathe all of this in. Exhale love and compassion. Breathe it all in again. Exhale love and compassion. As you allow the feelings, beliefs, and thoughts to be here, they will move as you allow them safe passage.

And as you feel more spaciousness ask yourself, “Above all else, how do I want to feel?” Remember, your mind will tell you lack is a fact that you must fix or control. This resistance will cause lack to persist. However, when you remember that lack is a feeling, and you invite instead of the feeling you seek, you will become able to receive new possibilities. Quite often what we seek when we struggle with lack is to know that we are loved and cared for.

Why is availability a core need?

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Wed, 04 May 2022 17:15:41 +0000

“I am here for you.” This is the voice of availability. Availability is a core need that, when nurtured, eases struggle and expands your capacity to receive.

How is this so? The answer lies in the last two words of Availability’s voice, “I am here for you.”
For you. This means that when someone or something is available to you, you are the most important being in that time and space. You are the one being RECEIVED with love and safety.

-Your words are received.
-Your body is received.
-Your feelings are received.
-Your needs are received.
-You are witnessed.
-You are heard.
-You know you matter.
-You are important.

As your need for availability is nurtured, life’s goodness becomes more available to you. This is the way of receiving. Life shows you reflections of your inner world.

If your need for availability is unmet, you may struggle with the belief that the outer world is the only place to find it. But if you begin to explore how it is that availability begins in your relationship with you, you will begin to unlearn this struggle.

When you need availability, if another can’t provide it, then take a breath or two and pause. Turn your attention within, close your eyes and ask, “How do I need to show up for myself?” Listen and trust the answer that arises.

As spiritual beings in a physical experience, availability usually yearns for physical presence. And so being available for yourself often requires a connection with your body. Consider being in nature, even if only to step outside and feel your lungs breathe deeply. Go for a walk and feel your feet meet the ground with each step. Or simply change the position of your body. If you’ve been sitting, stand up, or lay on the floor. As you feel your body, you will feel yourself become more available to you.

How to reveal your natural peace?

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Mon, 02 May 2022 17:44:18 +0000

You already are all that you seek to be, do, and have. This means that you are peace. Right here. Right now.

If you believe that your experience of peace can only happen when or after something happens you will struggle. In other words, peace is not conditional.

Peace is not something that is missing that you must find. Peace does not happen when something arrives, or something occurs, you become this, or so-and-so does that. Rather peace is revealed when you allow the seeking to rest.

Your natural peace is revealed when you call off the search and, one moment at a time, you let everything be as it is.

Then your seeking mind, which is the true cause of conflict, rests. Your peace is revealed. And in this spaciousness, you become open and receptive to receiving something new.

Mastering this practice “Behold. Don’t Become”

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Tue, 26 Apr 2022 20:21:43 +0000

Your mind is much like a machine.

When it is well maintained and you use it for its intended purpose, it can be a tremendous contribution to your life and those around you. As you train your awareness, you keep the space of your mind open and receptive to all manner of fulfillment through inspiration, insight, and wisdom.

When however you don’t take care of your mind it can run amok as thoughts appear at will, taking over your awareness and causing you to struggle.

Your mind is designed to access information, sort it, process it, organize it, make sense of it, and put it to use. A good maintenance plan includes:

-Careful monitoring of what you expose your mind to
-An intentional security system regarding what you make space for in your awareness
-A good training program that strengthens your ability to direct your awareness intentionally.
-Regular rest periods for your mind and breaks from external stimuli
-Along with regular cleansing routines through meditation or other practices to ensure that your mind remains free of the inevitable muck that can accumulate as it sorts through useful information and garbage.

When you do not take care of your mind and leave it running unattended, with never a chance to rest or be cleansed, not only does its usefulness diminish, but you will struggle. We need our minds to be sharp and healthy. If we leave our minds to their own devices we can become debilitated.

The most common form of struggle with the mind is when our thoughts take over. The thoughts themselves are not the problem, though. Thoughts come and thoughts go. This is the nature of the mind. Our problems arise from how we relate to those thoughts.

When you can notice your mental struggle, stop. Stand back. Become a witness of the thoughts, rather than merge with them. This practice is called, “Behold. Don’t Become.”

As you train your awareness be sure to use your breath as a way to create space between you and your thoughts. When you notice your mental struggle. Stop. Breathe. And as you do, you can simply say to yourself, These are thoughts. I do not have to become them. I am free to remain separate from these thoughts.

Keep breathing. Keep letting the thoughts be here. Behold them. Don’t become them.

Allow the thoughts to do what they want to do. They can rest, or they can pass on by. Your only job is to breathe into the space and feel that space expand. As you breathe relax into your body. This creates a new space in which to receive something new.

Cultivating the internal source of safety

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Wed, 20 Apr 2022 16:10:01 +0000

Safety is the heart and soul of all receiving.

When you don’t feel safe, your body assumes a survival posture. Your animal instinct gets activated and the natural resources that you access to receive, are replaced with the natural resources that you access to survive.

Imagine your hands as your interface with life itself.

When you feel unsafe, your hands are not receptive. They may be up and flat, ready to push away a threat. They may be clenched into fists ready to strike. They may be over your head or your body as you protect your vital organs, hide, or play dead. Or they may be grasping and snatching whatever is at hand as you run for your life.

When, however, you feel safe, your hands are open and your arms are outstretched. You are welcoming, receptive, and inviting. Because you are relaxed, your gaze can capture more than just threats or avenues of escape. Your vision is expansive and you see lush supply everywhere. You accept everything with gratitude and fully experience what is here. Let it move through your life and let it land as part of your experience. As each offering completes its purpose, you open your hands again and invite the next opportunity.

We struggle when we have learned or come to believe that the world is unsafe. Some struggle is a valid and natural part of life. There are times life is, or feels, unsafe and our animal instinct serves us well.

However, we struggle unnecessarily when we don’t know, or have forgotten, that we have an abundantly overflowing wellspring of safety within. This internal source of safety is natural to whom and what we are. We also struggle unnecessarily when we don’t know how to access the abundance of support and safety that exists all around us.

And yet, even if safety is unfamiliar or forgotten, you don’t need to know how to access it. You need only to be willing. Your awareness is the key to everything. Awareness is the first level of receiving.

As you become willing to receive, experience, and feel safe, you will become more and more aware of how safety is available to you within and without. And as you do, you expand in your capacity to receive the abundance and well-being that is always here.

How to experience the power of reasonless receiving?

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Mon, 18 Apr 2022 16:02:47 +0000

You come into this world worthy. You are worthy simply because you exist. It is your true nature as an expression of life. Yet we struggle to know this when we receive messages to the contrary.

The wholeness of life shows us to balance between endless examples of duality…

-light and shadow
-physical and spiritual
-masculine and feminine

The masculine values doing. The feminine values being.

But when you have learned to value doing over being, you struggle with feeling worthy. You learn to receive based on performance. You learn that you must earn your worth. You learn that your value is transactional.

Yet when you know the value of your presence, and receive simply because you exist, you experience the power of reasonless receiving.

This means that everything that is present to you is valuable.

-your joy
-your pain
-your fear
-your loneliness
-your fatigue
-your needs
-your wants

Everything about you is lovable, good, and valuable.

As you practice nurturing your needs, you tap into your natural value and expand your capacity to receive the kindness, abundance, and fulfillment life offers for no reason at all.

What fuels your worry?

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Tue, 12 Apr 2022 17:50:55 +0000

Worry occurs when you give lots of your attention to unwanted thoughts and images regarding things that could happen in the future.

This is natural. It is simply part of how we as humans are wired. Your mind is a thought receiver. Like radios, TVs, and computers, your mind is capable of accepting any invisible energy signals that you open yourself to.

With worry, the thoughts you receive are not the problem. What you do with the thoughts, however, can be.

A thought becomes a source of worry when, instead of letting the thought pass through your awareness, you put extra energy into the belief that what you fear really, truly, could happen. But just because something is possible, does not mean it’s probable. As a matter of fact, the vast majority of the things that cause us to worry, never come to pass.

But even when we know this to be true, we struggle. This is because most of us try to subdue our worries in ineffective ways.

-We attempt to control the future by preparing for the feared outcome.
-We try to anticipate what will happen, despite the fact that we can’t know the future, or
-We try to speak logic to our emotions, even though most of the time you can’t logic your way into feeling differently.

When, however, you shift your approach from subduing to soothe, the struggle that you experience with worry begins to soften and you become able, once again, to receive something new.

When you become hyper-focused on trying to fix the source of your worry, it actually fuels your worry. It gives it more life. Where your attention goes the energy flows. So if your focus is, “I need to fix this worry,” you will manifest you need to fix this worry.

But when you explore how to soothe your worry, your consciousness becomes a message to live that says, “I deserve kindness, comfort, and nurturing around this worry.” This in turn opens you to receive comfort, nurturing, and the kindness of life in expected and unexpected ways.

Your consciousness creates your reality.

Next time you find yourself worrying, notice, stop, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Turn your awareness away from the source of your worry and turn your attention inward. Focus on your body’s sensations, and breathe some more. Then ask your inner wisdom, “What do you need?” Listen. You may hear an answer, but you might not right away. Don’t seek an answer. Simply be and remain in a state of listening. If you need to throughout the day, ask again, “What do you need?”

Perhaps you need to speak the worry out loud, write it down, or vent with a friend. Perhaps you need to let it be okay that you’re afraid, or you need to rest, or you need to give yourself permission to ask for support. Perhaps you need a hug, if one is available, or simply the reassurance that you’re not alone.

Let yourself be curious and explore how to best meet your need. As you discover how to meet your needs, you become able to receive your wants.

What does it take to return to yourself?

Maria "Jessie" Corpuz-Dericto — Wed, 06 Apr 2022 18:36:07 +0000

How do you handle it, when you feel lost? When you’re up against a problem and you cannot see the way? When you’re confronted with a challenge and simply cannot find the answer?

How do you respond when you feel the discomfort that comes in these scenarios?

If you’re like most people in the modern world, you struggle. Maybe a little. Maybe a great deal. Some degree of struggle is a natural part of life.

We see it most clearly when something new is being born. There is a certain tension and friction that occurs when that which is here must make space for the new. Or when we are navigating an unknown and grasping for something to hold on to.

However, in the modern world, much of our struggle is learned. It comes from having been taught that the source of our answers, our safety, and our supply is “out there” in the physical world.

Much like the hunter, we have come to over-rely on the model that tells us to think, act, and find.

However, there is another model of power that is equally as essential to navigating our way through life.

It is embodied by the Majestic Tree which guides us to sit, receive, and reveal.

The tree is always rooted. It is cared for by life itself. It is present with itself. With each passing year, its roots grow deeper. It releases the unused and unneeded regularly. It makes its impact by expanding and by allowing its offering to be spread across the land. It stands, it stays, and it shares itself. Its fulfillment and contribution come from revealing itself to itself and to others.

We struggle in so many ways when we don’t know how to stop seeking, hunting, and strategizing. We struggle in so many ways when we don’t know the way and the power of the tree. When we don’t know how to simply sit and be. How to sense and feel what is occurring in our bodies. When we have become so lost in the world that we are completely disconnected from the stillness that is the ground of our beings. When we have forgotten how to speak and understand the language of our bodies and our souls. When amidst all of the noise and activity we feel unable to simply stop.

And yet it is so simple.

Stop.

Just stop. Sit. And return to yourself.

Just sit. Just be. The world will never stop poking you, pulling at you, triggering you. And yet, while it provides an endless supply of bright, shiny objects, it does not have the fulfillment you seek.

That lies within. You do not need to wait until you get sick and tired of being sick and tired of seeking. You can simply make the decision to stop looking for answers in the wrong place, and become willing to look and listen in the place where your answers actually are.
