“I’m selling five times more than I ever sold in my best year. I keep breaking personal ceilings in spite of my belief that I’ve hit my ceiling. I have children who know themselves, question things, and value their curiosity and their spark. My wife and I are closer—we’re becoming better and better friends"

"The thing about living this more alive lifestyle is that it seems to be moving at hyperspeed! They say time flies when you are having fun, so I must be having a really great time. My life feels like it is in high gear, not going too fast and out of control, mind you, just moving quickly in an exciting way."

"I grew up pretty much as a ghost in my family, the sixth of seven children and the youngest girl of five. I excelled in school, performed in theatre, band, and choir, and yet offstage, when it was just me being myself, I very easily disappeared into the background of my family. I was painfully shy, avoiding talking to people or making eye contact. This has been a pattern that has defined my life since that time. I’d perform well but disappear into the background."

"When I started my transformation, I realized there were things I wanted in my life that I wasn’t really even prepared to admit to myself, and I realized that what I was doing on my own was not working. It struck me that to get to what I wanted I might need some support and guidance ... I learned how to pay attention to my thoughts and feelings with an ear to what is the data and what is the action it is indicating, instead of listening to my own internal critic and believing everything she said. I also had the permission to try new things, new attitudes, new ways of being, and to see what fit me and how each one would serve me. I came out of the closet in a big way through these assignments, and though I felt the pain of having a brand-new pink skin really exposed to the elements for the first time, I also felt the joy of being seen and touched."

I’ve opened up my eyes | And started to revise | My whole worldview. | I’ve set out upon a path | Of self-discovery |
A journey to Become more me. | And from ghost towards Goddess, I’ve come a long way Battling limiting beliefs and the nasty self-talk I say. Revealing strengths and talents that I barely knew— | You better watch out world ‘cause I’m comin’ for you! | I’m evolating! | Can’t stop me now I’ve got a yearning to be! | I’m dedicating | To the emergence of the next radiant me. | Yeah, I’m dedicated to rematrixing me!

"Now, it is so amazing to see how far I have come. I am in my seventh year with a full-time salaried position at a company where I get to support organizations to live their missions more fully and more clearly communicate their vision, mission, and stories to the world. This is something I never had before and never even realized I wanted or could have! I am holding my ground with people both with vulnerability, pain, anger, and upset—I am in it, at work, in my family, and in relationships with friends."

"I know so much more about myself. I love myself. I am the man I want to be. There is more of me available to others. I’m not wearing a mask; I’m showing who I really am"

“I show and share who I really am.”

“I accept myself for who I am. I don’t have to hide.”

"I embrace myself, my life, and others. I like being with myself and other people like being with me."

"“The less I depend on people around me to prop me up, the more I find that I am okay with who I am. So I am not as dependent on people defining me. I define myself."

"“I have such a feeling of joy realizing that it is OK to be me, to not be perfect, to understand how I feel and why, and that I am loved for being me! What a great feeling! I want to share it with everyone."

"“I am free to truly be myself in order to dream possibilities beyond anything I can currently imagine."

"“I am excited about doing things I used to be afraid to do—to sell, lead, manage, to have a great marriage and a beautiful home, to be engaged with my kids, to have pride that my life is an adventure that I never thought possible—all the while sensing that this is all training for something else, bigger."

"I think why I like it so much is because the possibilities never end, and they keep going and getting bigger and there is more to learn about myself and more to do and so that is something that I get excited about but makes me continue doing my work, a life journey."

"I completely transformed myself. I am now massively outgoing and a radiant leader."

"I reach out constantly to people I don't even know sometimes, just to let them know they can be living a better life. That's my audacious caring, that's my vision for my community."

"I find that when I invite other people into my life and what I am doing I get so much more out of it. I make my world a better place because I am here."

"It's my responsibility to myself and those who support me to pay it forward or pay it back. Living this and sharing it is my responsibility to the world."
