Reactive Brain uses energy.

It runs on anger, fear, and sadness — and that takes a toll.

Creative Brain generates energy.

Neutrality. Acceptance. Appreciation. Love. Joy. Peace.

When you shift your state, your energy shifts.

Where are you today? Comment “Above” or “Below.”

Being willing to shift means you’re already close to the place where new possibilities live.

In this session, you’ll see what that looks like in real time. The courage to stay. The willingness to feel.

This is the work.

A rare opportunity to spend the weekend with two luminaries, Kathlyn Hendricks, PhD and Julie Colwell, PhD.

We’ll shake off the old, crumbling paradigm of Power Over / Power Under — noticing how it plays out in our bodies, our lives, and our leadership.

And then we’ll lean into something new.

A world of infinite possibility.
A container of integrity.
A practice of letting our bodies and minds open into the next phase of human evolution.

Join us! Registration link in bio.

Fear, sadness, and anger each carry specific information.

Fear tells us we’re perceiving a threat.
Sadness tells us we’re perceiving a loss.
Anger tells us we’re perceiving an intrusion or obstacle.

These sensations don’t mean the threat, loss, or intrusion is objectively true — they mean our body is interpreting it that way.

When we understand the message, we can move back into Creative Brain.

Save this as a reference.

What if joy isn’t something you earn? What if it isn’t dependent on circumstances lining up just right?

What if, underneath the survival fears and the frustrations, you knew your natural state is joy?

Not forced or manufactured.
Just there.

Maybe even your birthright.

How would your day change if you let that be true?

It can be easy to perceive the world as a negative place when we're the ones stuck in Reactive Brain.

Jaw clenched.
Stomach tight.
Body tensed.

It’s easy to stay there.
To get caught in the story of what’s wrong.

When that happens for me, eventually I remember my commitment to living Above the Line.

So I pause. Breathe. Recommit.
What picture can I imagine from Creative Brain?

When I shift, I see something different — people choosing love consciously.
Choosing to trust the wisdom of their bodies.
Choosing connection instead of blame.
Choosing expansion over fear.

We don’t have to collapse into the densest story available.

We can choose the one that opens the heart. From there, we are actively helping contribute to the building of that vision.

I was racing around getting ready and had a new thought:

What would I do right now if I were being truly kind to myself?

I was surprised. It was so simple.

Finish the errands.
Get back on the bike.

So I’ll ask you: What would kindness toward yourself look like in this moment?

The question of “How good are you willing to feel?” is a big one.

What if we were the source of the love we sometimes seek ‘out there’?
With my hand on my heart and belly I can tap into the power that I generate.

How good are you willing to feel?
How much love are you willing to generate for yourself right now?

There is something powerful about watching others move through their process.

To witness someone slow down…
Tune into their body…
Name what’s actually there…
And let it move.

It reminds us that we’re not alone in our patterns. That reactivity can shift. That clarity and flow are always available.

Thank you, Zach and Sarah, for letting your process be witnessed.

If you’re curious about how this process unfolds in real time, you can watch the full session here: https://youtu.be/91-i1hhUb9E?si=qt9CUBMhyVwxVTae

Self-hatred is sneaky. It can feel justified and familiar (like all stories from Reactive Brain).

It can even feel… powerful.

If I go after myself hard enough, maybe I can prevent the next mistake. Maybe I can control what happens. Maybe I can manage the outcome.

What are we trying to do by hating ourselves?

Self-hatred could be my aggression turned inward.
My attempt to control life by tightening around myself.

And then comes the real question: Do I choose that?
Or do I choose something else?

An invitation for you today: notice when you turn on yourself.

And then ask: What am I really trying to control?
