Life Strategy to help you
live the life of your dreams.
Do you catch yourself saying “Is this all there is?” Do you want to do something else? Be someone else? Want to love your life and see every day as a gift?
If so, you are not alone!
I’m Joan Russell, and I’m here to say that you can change your life and live that dream. You can live your purpose — from your values, your heart and soul — your Intuitive North. I am a life strategist, motivational coach and speaker here to support you on your journey.
When you tap into your Intuitive North you will have a much deeper understanding of what drives you, move past any blocks you may be experiencing, and map your journey towards your dream life.
Why Intuitive North?
A compass always points North. North is your home, your heart and soul, the direction you can always intuitively find and count on to lead you to where you are supposed to be -- whether you realize it or not.
As human beings, we are easily distracted by bright shiny objects, or conditioned to be someone that other people want you to be. Or are sometimes socially obligated to just not be true to yourself.
Your values. Your desires. Your wants. Your needs. Your heart and soul. The stars you were born under. These comprise parts of your Intuitive North.
You came into this world with gifts and traits that are inherently within you to make you successful. In order to access them, we need to sometimes take a deeper look — to rub away those parts of our conditioning that have not been healthy for us and shine up those that are.
What does your Intuitive North say?
Motivational Coaching for Professionals
You think there has to be something else. Something deeper. Or you already know your purpose but feel like it’s impossible -- it’s scary to take action and you feel like you just aren’t good enough to do that thing anyway.
Or maybe your priorities have changed. You are unsure which direction to go in. You feel like you’ve lost faith and are judging yourself for feeling this way. Or perhaps you’re on what is considered to be a great path, but you feel burned out and that this just isn’t you.
You seek something with more meaning and authenticity. You want to contribute to greater causes. You want to align with your values and strengths. To escape from what feels yucky and move towards your Intuitive North.
What if you went after your dream? What if it was real? And what if you could live it every day? What would that be like – feel like?!
Work with me and feel that excitement of being in aligned action towards your goals!
