€250,000+… GONE— intentionally.

Some people may see this as a brag or squandering. As if I have wasted my money. I had security, financial stability— bricks and mortar. But I liquidated the sheeeit out of it.

I understand these people. I don’t agree with them. 7 years ago I made a decision to spend my privilege on the pursuit of purpose, with the mission of formulating a series of books, methods and a simple re-approach to wellbeing. Why? Because I want to help! I want to be of the best service to my community that I can. This path was laid ahead of me and I had one job, to step into IT.

What started in a hedge fund company’s gym, in London back in 2018, has overflow into an artistic and lifetime endeavour.

I am full of experience and gratitude to have been able to be in such a position; to continue to fulfil my dream— a true blessing.

I now have just 2 months of a minimum salary left, living in my family home in the Italian alps. From here I am rebuilding my retreat business and will share the hard earned lessons I have been gifted.

How would you have to spent this money?
What would’ve that meant to you?
Why?

As ever, thanks for all your support!

My career as a PT, yoga teacher and massage therapist is thanks to stress— tension…

… some years ago I realised that “there is no intention without tension”. Said differently, stress is a necessary part of health; living a meaningful life— on purpose.

I’m bored of the increasingly confusing industry I work in. I’m also tired of how serious we take health— ironically, as it’s essence requires us to be playful.

So this is me on a lifelong mission to simplify wellbeing, because how and why we do anything is as important as what we do and who for.

Please join me and @hometownjournal__ as we endeavour to share this journey with the world. And know that this is only just the beginning of IT!!

Much of our [online] communication is rife with ‘call-out culture’. I’ve been fortunate enough to experience ‘call-in culture’: where my peers point back the lack into “ok— who do you want to be”. @yadskis provided another example of this direct wisdom. 🦁

How we interpret, perceive or associate to tension determines the quality of the relationship with have to our intention— our story…

Who are you becoming?

It’s a very simple question that encourages one to take stock, be honest and build vision; all traits of what it means to live with intention…

I used to think that I needed people to feel my pain in order for me to be understood. But I came to realise that this expectation just created more isolation and disconnection.

“No one can ever know the discomfort, pain—the tension I carry.” No. No one can. And the second we use that to place ourselves above or below the next person, we create more suffering and less connection.

To relate requires strong, steadfast intent. ‘The will to understand’. This requires practice. It’s not a perfect process but it gets us closer to knowing how to meet each other equally.

Simplicity is a skill cultivated through intention setting.

Saying NO to anything is rooted in knowing what, why and how you want to be. Saying NO, simply and effectively clarifies who to communicate that with.

Intense people, without the right tools to direct tension into purpose and creative connections, will either burn down relationships (including burning themselves out) or be easily shamed out of their authenticity.

Working with @craigwhitementoring was a Master Class in equality: talk to adults like adults | cut away the fluff | be clear.

7+ years of deep study into what intention means, how it works and why it matters and this lesson still holds true.

Your ‘intensity’ may be too much for others, but it may be ‘enough’ for you. Until you own that centre, you’ll likely (and literally) keep tripping yourself up.

You stub your toe…

Would the next action you take be to ask “how are you feeling?” To the person nearest to you…?

When we’re in pain or if our needs aren’t being met, we react according to our ability to manage that stress— to self regulate.

Sometimes money can “help us” swerve the need to self regulate, by buying ourselves out through surface comforts.

But that pain. The need— it doesn’t go anyway. It just becomes yet more unconscious unmet needs. More tension. More rigidity.

If you want help with managing stress:
1. Attend a silent retreat— a safe and peaceful space to look under the hood.
2. Online mentoring @bearintentions

Being honest requires you to feel the present…
Goals can often act as a way to avoid that by focusing on “one day I’ll have it— and then I’ll be enough”.

What no one tells you is that living with intention can be rough, tough and challenging.

Because it’s HARD and SOFT and HONEST.

And that’s hard to navigate sometimes.

But this is my profession: if you’re unsure on who you are being or want to be, this is where the bespoke retreats I offer 🇮🇹 🏔️ are best! You finally get the space you need to see clearly.

If you know where you’re heading but don’t have a road map— this is where my online mentoring service takes full effect, helping you step forward with consideration, without hesitation.

Type WORK in comments below and I’ll be in touch with details.
