I’m doing an upcoming workshop w/ a friend. It is a guided meditation & energetic healing. So I thought I would experiment w/ using the Nov format to promote. Energy is sometimes, a hard concept to easily quantify or make understandable for the masses, but I thought I would take a shot at it. I did my best. I encourage…Read More

  I got bogged down in the intro. Read it 3 times and I’m still not sure what it says. Do you need the energetically in the second sentence – You are unconsciously blocked by past trauma and events.
  
  You are missing “years” from the next sentence, “For over 5,000 [years]. . . And I’m a cynic. When you say that Western science has caught up, it feels…Read More

    Hi Brenda,
    Thank you very much for your comments. Since it is an event combining guided meditation & energetic healing, I feel like the energetically is needed but I will consider it further.
    I was thinking that “Western science has caught up…” the other way, that Eastern philosophy was way ahead and we are only beginning to catch up. I guess…Read More

      Hey Joel – your audience may very well be in tune with the concepts. I’m reading this as an “outsider,” so you might want to try it out on a few fans who are better informed of your offerings.

      Hi Brenda, thanks again for your suggestions. I was trying to expand the audience, but it might be more challenging than I thought.

  I really love the work you are doing, Joel. All the up front descriptions feel heavy, though I get why you want to share the detail there. Interested to see any edits you made, if you want to share them!

    Hi Beth, thanks for your encouraging note. I was trying to widen the audience but I don’t have quite right yet. This one may have to stick w/ folks more familiar w/ energy work. I will either share something tomorrow or just get it out the door.

This is my long outcome post for Gutsy Women Finances community. Would love some feedback.

Here’s a major reason why you haven’t taken charge of your money, even though you are a smart and savvy woman with a good salary.

You weren’t taught much about personal finances – either from your family or school. So maybe you feel a little lost…Read More

Many thanks again to Kerstin & Susan for their help.
======================
Here is a key reason why you are feeling stressed & overwhelmed, despite all your successes.

Your brain is conditioned by your past.

When it notices something that resembles a past danger, your brain hits the alarm bell. It fills you with feelings of worry,…Read More

  You are not saying ANY about those other dance instructors. You kept it focused on the emotion and how the client was feeling

  You may be talking to a specific audience so these questions might not be relevant.

    thanks @joel for your questions.
    so many teachers teach ‘tango’ as choreographed patterns and steps which is not useful for the social dance floor – so they /students don’t actually learn to dance – to lead or to follow.

      Thanks @Daniela. Great answers, they make things a lot clearer for me. Here is another version based on your responses. I hope this helps.:
      
      Here is the key reason you’re still not getting the dances you want at social events – it’s not your focus, and it’s not your inability to learn something new…. it’s because your attention has been on mak…Read More
