The one question that helps me build lasting change sustainably
Sustainability Street, my kind of street! ✨

What is your take on sustainability?
.
I love the definition (thanks Google) which sums up how I feel about it.
sustainability /səsteɪnəˈbɪlɪti/
noun
●the ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level.
and then my favourite..
●avoidance of the depletion of natural resources in order to maintain an ecological balance.
And that is the reason why for me sustainability is a core pillar to success. In everything. Life. Work. Relationships. In my coaching practice. What's success really if we can't sustain it?
.
I used to push myself to depletion and burnout, which resulted in this love & hate relationship with myself. I was constantly striving and pushing and I felt like it was the only way to be successful and worthy.
.
The result was a struggle to truly show up for myself consistently, it nearly costing me my relationships, especially the one with myself, and not to mention the downward impacts on my health physically and mentally.
.
But I've learned we often have our success / happiness equation backwards. We think that we must achieve the thing first before we're happy. We think we can't live on our own terms and we have to hustle till we drop. No we don't, my dear.
.
Sustainability is true success and it's really about embracing presence, the process, the journey and the right support while you're at it. #hustletherightway

For my own growth and learning this means making my energy management a non-negotiable, always bringing it back to ask 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗜 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗲?
.
For my clients this means working with them towards their desires and goals in a way that is sustainable for their lifestyle and in alignment with their values, long after our sessions finish. Desire-fuelled actions yes, but quality over quantity.
