Mini-Series
PERMISSION TO BE
Permission to Be...
A series about softening the effort of becoming someone else.
A place to pause the performing, the fixing, the (im)proving, the adapting…
A space to explore:
· What happens when I don't have to earn my place here?
· What parts of me have been waiting for permission?
· What shifts when I let myself be seen as I am?

How much energy does it take to be someone other than yourself?

The heart of the series:
Permission to be here.
Permission to be
as you are.
Permission to take up space.
Permission to be changed by what unfolds between us.
Permission to Be.
Permission to Be
is a warm invitation
to soften
for a moment,
the effort of trying to be someone else.
To loosen our grip…
On how we think we should feel.
On who we think we should be.
On the stories we've come to believe that we're too much,
not enough,
or not quite there yet.
To set down…
- for a while-
the exhausting work
of managing ourselves.
And perhaps
soaking in the
quiet practice of keeping ourselves company
exacty as we are.
Together.


Good news!
You can leave your 'improved self' at the door if you want to.

I didn’t expect so much insight to happen. The pace was just right for me, you conducting it… ohhh, wonderful. There’s a lot of trust in your leadership. I relaxed into your context. I could really dive in. The feeling of depth is something I remember. I discovered patterns and I was able to experiment. It’s amazing what connection can do, even through zoom.
