Embodied Leadership Through the 5 Elements: The Water Eleme

Episode 07: Embodied Leadership Through the 5 Elements: The Water Element This is the second installment of the this five part series on how to rise into deeper and higher levels of embodiment through the wisdom and guidance of the 5 elements of nature. This week we dive into the water element, which is a reflection of our relationship to the emotional realm. Having mastery and a sense of embodiment when it comes to emotions is CRUCIAL for effective, genuine, intentional and powerful leadership! Not only that, but your emotions are the GATEWAY into the unconscious realm and how you are *being* with your emotions, effects how quickly, intentionally and integratively (so key!!) you move into your next level of leadership and embodiment.  In this episode we talk about: -why it's important not to categorize emotions as "bad" or "good" and how to step out of the unconscious patterns that has our conscious mind avoiding and villifying certain emotions, while forcefully trying to experience "good" emotions (which in the long run, doesn't actually work). -how you get comfortable with uncomfortable emotions and why this is going to change the way you lead your business and life -the emotions that are unconsciously affecting your life and business based on the gender your family, parents and society at large identified you with (which may or may not be the gender you identify with right now). -how certain emotions like anger, shame, guilt and fear are generally the most uncomfortable, but are the {shadow} emotions you have to get to know in order to shed the layers that are creating obstacles for your next level of embodiment. -why those uncomfortable emotions don't often register in your conscious mind, and yet they drive the majority of your decisions and affect how you show up in your business and life! And SO much more!
