Designing_Me

an opportunity to reinvent yourself

It is during these times of unexpected change and when our world is turned upside down, that we have the opportunity to truly and fully align with the best version of ourselves and with what we’re truly here to do. How exciting it is to get the opportunity to re-emerge anew and in a more precise version of who we are! It’s a design activity, fun and natural as we allow the intuitive freedom and openness of inquiry and exploration that is in us to flow free.

A friend who entrusted me with this process said to me: “I approached you for the design of the next steps in my unique career and life trajectory because you have always stayed true to your vision”. Yes! I’ve always followed the path that ticks my heart and fills my soul. My work has always been my play and my moving meditation. And yet, that and all else for me got turned upside down, inside out and backwards nearly a decade ago and as hard as it felt and as hard as it was, it gave me the opportunity to rethink, realign, and reemerge anew in an even more perfect version of what I’m here to do. I love my life and I’m crystal clear on my purpose which I practice each day.

What’s currently happening worldwide is a collective version of what I’ve been through. Hearing the struggles, fears, panic and revelations currently going on amazes me. It’s like I’m hearing myself in each of you as I was back then when this was so scary and overwhelming to me and I want to say, it’s okay. It’s more than okay. As hard as it seems, this is a rebirth: a cleansing and a new start for you too. You are getting to work on a blank fresh canvas of you. And I’m here with both my experience as a designer, mentor of visualizations, award winning visions and a survivor again and again of some of life’s hardest hits to be your muse.

Here are some words on this process. From my mentee, colleague and friend: “Among Martha’s many gifts and talents, her greatest strength is her ability to inspire others, seeing the world and connections between disciplines in a unique way and listening”. Another colleague adds: “she is gifted with the ability to inspire and motivate meaningful transformations”. A dear friend adds: “Her resiliency and ability to transform difficult situations into possibilities amazes me. Martha is an asset to others going through very hard things”. I’ll add: the less I have, the more I trust. The more I trust, the more I have!

I’ve been called to put this out now. I want to offer this as an exchange in sliding scale [$45-$89 per one hour one-on-one sessions with play to do in-between* for a six-week series]. The medium of play will be open and unique to each person. We will do this via Facetime, Zoom or telephone. I am welcoming two or three people who are curious, open and interested in going through a one-on-one creative and intuitive process unique to you of open play, exploration and a delving inward and outward into the possibilities of self design and the perfected you.

 

*contact me to schedule a free half an hour consultation if this is inspiring to you even if the sliding suggestion is out of your reach.
