On this IWD 2021 I am reminded about the women that have been supporting and cheering me on in the background, the ones that, quite frankly have made me brave.
Last year and this earlier this year I have been turning an investment of 7 years and $66,000 and counting into a course called Design Your Life on Purpose. It has been designed for professionals who have deferred their dreams and are wondering now what?
The amazing women that I get to call friends have been test dummies, proof readers, process improvers, marketers, pilot participants and most importantly cheer squad. They have had my back and then some the whole time I have crafting this into something I can deliver.
Heading into the second time I have delivered this in full – Saturday the 20th March link here (not so subtle plug), I am so thankful for all the ways they have been my support. I know that as a result of their support, I have been brave. Brave enough to pull something together and road test, Reflection Revolution (the first part of designing your life on purpose), during the thick of COVID-19 in Australia. Brave enough to pull off a retreat in a NSW country town. Brave enough to change the format to a one-day workshop to support professionals who could not make a retreat. Brave enough to embark on a marketing campaign and follow up, that was way outside my comfort zone.
They have been there when I faltered, when I thought no one would sign up to attend, when I thought I was not charging enough or too much. When I am embarking on a shift of my own professional focus, when it is just easier to get a gig, they have made me brave.
They have also been there with personal challenges, of which I have had many. They have seen me at my weakest and at my strongest and they have held me regardless, they have made me brave.
Thank you, seems so inadequate for the support they have given, for the bravery they have instilled. I am eternally grateful and humbled by the gift they have shared.
Design your Life on Purpose (DYLOP) workshop
DYLOP is designed to guide professionals who have deferred their dreams to unearth possibilities and to design a strategic life map to answer the question - now what?
DYLOP attracts 2 types:
1. Know Exactly - Peeps who know exactly what they want to do, but are unsure how or have some blocks to overcome
2. No Idea - Peeps who are unsure what they want to design their life around, or know what they do not want
All details about the one day are contained on this page. It is packed to the gills with everything you can ever imagine asking, such as:
· How is the 1 day and the retreat different?
· What is different to other offerings?
· Bonuses if you bring a friend
What was the experience like again….

Not quite ready for the 1day DYLOP workshop
Here are some other options to get you started on designing.
DREAM QUEST
As we start moving into adulting, we let go of the ability to dream, or it gets schooled out of us. This is an absolute tragedy, and probably responsible for the deluge of sameness we get surrounded with.
People that create amazing, desirable lives are the ones that never let go of dreaming and make those dreams come true.
Dream Quest is about kickstarting that process to unearth possibilities and expand your thinking beyond your now, developing the critical super habit of dreaming. Without this super habit of dreaming it is hard to know what you are designing your life towards.

REFLECTION REVOLUTION
Our lives were already packed with loads of things, very important and valuable things, and then Global Pandemic! The world literally stops….. It then becomes even more important to take stock, and determine whether the life you were heading towards at break neck speed, is really the life that you truly desire.
Reflection is something that you do generally do periodically, rather than an everyday habit, therefore, Reflection Revolution will be offered as preparation for Design Your Life on Purpose workshops or retreats. It is important to note, that this can be done as a stand-alone activity, still very valuable.
