ABOUT
MEET GREG
I believe Life is a Limitless Opportunity.
That is, when we find ourselves in our natural state, we feel a sense, a deep knowing our life is meant for more.
And yet, each time we muster the bravery to try and put ourselves into the world, we are faced with what feels like a stark OPPOSITION, to us stepping into the fullest and most ALIVE version of ourselves..
Why the resistance we ask. What am I doing wrong..? Maybe I am just not meant to be more. Maybe I am not enough to step into that next career role, start that creative project, or take on this new business endeavour. Maybe the average, mediocre path IS all I was born for.
I am here with you.
You are not alone on this journey.
And I am confident that your current story, is not the FULL STORY.
FREEDOM, ALIVENESS & AUTHENTIC EXPRESSION, is our birthright and our CALLING if we know where to find it..
My journey has been anything but straight forward and direct.
A long time learned perfectionist, people pleaser, and often finding myself working for my worth. I struggled for a long time to step fully into my authentic SELF.
Not knowing why, I forged forward using my intellect, self belief, and bravery to take on every challenge that life put in front of me.
Early on in my career taking on roles of Electrical General Foreman, overseeing projects of 130+ electrical trades workers.
To working my way into Project Management, and at the age of 28 being given the opportunity to oversee the construction of 2, 220 Unit Townhome developments.
What was at first invigorating, challenging, and exciting eventually came to a screeching halt, when my body said no more.
My system was exhausted, burnt out and no longer sustaining the unrelenting waterfall of activity and stress being funnelled through me.
In hindsight, I see exactly my shortfalls. After a significant awakening experience, and a 5 year unfolding and healing journey.. I am beginning to see how my self protective system was keeping me stuck.
What I am most passionate about learning and sharing about through my own struggle and healing experience is how I was keeping myself stuck. How we are all our own obstacle to realizing our fullest potential.
Through turning the mirror on myself, and taking accountability for my life.
I started to realize, I am the only one in my way.
My inability to ask for help, my own inability to listen to my heart/body, my own fear's addiction to figuring it out alone (so I didn't look/ & feel like a failure).
What I am most curious about now is how when we embark on the inward journey of self discovery, we begin to learn how our own self protective system has learned throughout our lifetime to keep us safe, and at the same time, unconsciously keeping us stuck.
As we break open to our innate awareness, and curiosity we start to see how our own shadow parts, our hidden subconscious self protective beliefs, behaviours and unhealed pains of our past are the exact obstacles that are controlling and limiting the fullest most authentic, and ALIVE expressions of our life..
As a student to the Human Experience, I find myself filled with wonder and curiosity towards human potential, the pathways and roadblocks to our natural wellbeing, and the qualities and characteristics required for Life Leadership.
Exploring through my own journey, riddled with self doubt, frustration, self belief, stress, struggle, and lots of pain what it means to be in this body as a Human.
Through this journey I've learned HOW to step outside the self limiting stories of my past, find peace in my mind, a new sense of balance and groundedness in my body, and everyday I am practicing techniques towards cultivating sustainable change and growth in living into my MOST ALIVE LIFE.
If you can resonate in any capacity, I hear you.
Through my own experience, I am connected to, and holding deep compassion for these parts of you.
And most of all wanting you to know, you are not alone.
This has been my life's journey, and it feels there is no other way than to share what I've learned.. in helping others who might be stuck in the same.
In Gratitude, love, and wholehearted support,
Greg
MY STORY
From a young age, I felt burdened with feelings of being an outsider. Not drastically different, but just enough to never quite feel like I fit in.
I knew I was different when the other kids were playing video games and musing childhood banter, I found myself inspired by the possibilities of human potential and questioning the common path to life satisfaction and fulfillment.
Spending my days, not quite understanding the frivolous nature of the childhood mundane, I chose to spend a lot of time in solitude, in my mind, contemplating existential ideas..
Who am I?
What is the meaning of Life?
What is my purpose?
What is happiness, fulfillment, peace, & suffering?
What is success?
How is the right way to live?
Through my own quest of answer seeking, trial and error, subsequent failures, burnouts and exhaustion, I have come away with my own learnings and a newfound appreciation for the spiritual journey.
What started as an aspiration towards becoming a better version of myself, soon turned to an addictive pursuit that carved a course of it's own.
Through the emotional rollercoaster of celebrations, shortfalls, and rock bottom periods of depression, I have grown a deep appreciation for the real path to Self Discovery.
What I discovered through my own journey was much different than what was sold on the bookshelves of Self Development.
Focusing on the positive feels great, but if we really want to transform our life, seeing and beginning to relate to our shadows is the only path towards real transformation.
Today, I lead my life from a whole new place of grounded appreciation and humility in what it means to feel alive. It has led me to a place of deepened self understanding, inner healing and a totally unexpected transformation in my relationship to self and others.
This work is an expansion to my own lived experience.
A core reason, why I want to give back to help others that may be facing similar challenges.
- I want to build a community where it is SAFE to feel like an outsider.
- I want to create a SPACE where there is no daunting, or uncomfortable questions.
- I want to dig deep on the nature of mind, and ultimately support one another in stepping in to the fullest and most authentic expression of SELF.
What unknowingly transpired, was a quest to transform my own suffering.
Through this journey, I've stumbled and fallen. I get up again, and continue to fail.
But I am commitment to staying with the work.
I don't know, what I don't know, and I am sure there is more challenges ahead. But I can say with confidence, the practices I have committed to have brought powerful change to my inner state of being and to the way in which I show up and interact with the world.
What I want to share and support others in most is the real life impact of transforming our relationship to fear. As a result change the way in which we SHOW UP & MEET EACH AND EVERY MOMENT OF OUR LIVES.
Curiosity
A core component of coaching, different from consulting or therapy, is the nature of believing in the innate wholeness, creativity and resourcefulness of the client.
Through this lens, I trust the client to discover their own answers, direction and capacity to self heal from the inside/out.
As a result, the client can develop the skills and know how to self navigate future challenges.
Collaborative
The work I am called to, is a partnership with the client, joining them on a quest to uncover what is real and true for them.
In the process, we excavate and explore together; limiting beliefs, roadblocks, challenges, and hurdles that may be blocking you from realizing personal change and transformation, in your own peace, in your relationships, career, business and life as a WHOLE.
Wholistic & Embodied
The complexity of the Human experience makes it near impossible to isolate and heal only one part of the system.
In this approach, I have learned to listen to and tend to the entire ecosystem of the client, Mind, Body & Soul. Through this we explore the interplay of how each individuals systems have learned to create the helpful and at times unhelpful patterns we experience in our life.
Through intentional practice, we nurture these internal relationships of all of our parts. As a result the client develops and fosters a sense of inner harmony, coherence and stress resilience in SELF.
Whether that shows up in being there for our family, as a grounded, resilient and stable foundation. Teaming beside our colleagues on a big project, or in taking care of ourselves in embarking on our most purpose driven creative ambitions.
Results Orientated
I take this work seriously. As much as one can enjoy talking Spiritual ideas and theories, the goal is real world change & transformation.
It is up to the client to walk their path, but I am dedicated to support you to your desired finish line, and BEYOND.
With this, I am committed to a 100% money back guarantee, if the experience and impact was not as you expected.
That's how passionate, and trusting in the power of this work I am.
