Leon VanderPol is widely acknowledged as a master teacher and pioneer in the field of transformational coaching, and has spent thousands of hours training and mentoring coaches, healers, leaders and others from all over the world. He is the founder and Managing Director of the Center for Transformational Coaching, and the author of A Shift in Being: The Art and Practices of Deep Transformational Coaching – a paradigm of coaching which invites people to drop below surface-level engagement, explore the boundaries of their existence, and tap into their deepest sense of self. 

In this episode, we chat about:

• Bringing your full self into the workplace and what it actually means to embody your values as an organization
• Trusting the path when following your dreams and the importance of becoming the person for whom your big dreams are possible
• The difference between surrendering and giving up
• Mistaking our highest purpose and potential for the form we desire it to take and releasing attachment to that
• Trusting in the flow of our creations and perceiving the bigger picture when we feel stuck in the specifics
• Allowing an organization to evolve and shift with the collective passion, interest and energy
• The judgments we place on growth vs. decline and “success” vs. “failure” in business and releasing control
• Mistaking surrender for being passive when it’s really about trusting that you will be guided and then acting on it

Pilar Lesko (@pilarlesko) is one of my greatest mentors and teachers, and I’m so grateful to have her on the podcast today for Part 2 of our 2-part conversation. Beginning her studies with Astrology and consciousness exploration at the age of 15, Pilar has spent nearly 15 years immersed in the worlds of energy medicine, consciousness studies, the healing arts, the Mysteries, and her own integration and remembrance journey. Pilar is devoted to supporting people through mentorship and training in the realms of energy, emotional, and practical mastery; business alchemy; and wealth creation.

In this episode, we chat about:

- The importance of working with reality organically rather than finding things to constantly “work on” and heal within yourself

- Allowing yourself to be a clear vessel for all of your desires and creations

- The difference between searching for the next healing modality and trying to do what others are doing vs. being organically guided to what’s meant for you

- Bringing fun, joy and playfulness into your business and life

- The importance of trusting in your frequency and inner guidance when it doesn’t make logical sense and when you haven’t seen proof yet

- The “doing to get” trap and the more subtle “being to get” trap

- Allowing yourself to embrace the full spectrum of your humanity and bringing the multidimensional into the 3D
