Back in the Training Room

I was delighted to be back in the training room weekend before last – Making Money Count was held in Huntsville with 20 participants who were really going for claiming their money mastery plus a very sharp and supportive team.

Several of their responses are below so that you can get a feel for the power of the experience that was created…

“The money cost process changed my life.”

“I learned that I had many beliefs and judgments about my inability to handle and manage money. I am not afraid of money anymore. There are skills to learn, but I can learn. I am willing to get back in the game!”

“Money is a spiritual gift that has been given to us so that we may gift others in many different ways. It’s an extension of me and how I manifest in the world.”

“I see that money is just a resource – I was the one putting all the other meanings for it in place.”

I’m telling you, it was an inspiring and reinvigorating experience! If you haven’t taken a focus course in a while, please avail yourself of this resource that we have within our program. During the course of the weekend, I found myself time and again feeling so very grateful to Brad Brown (course creator) for his creative genius and personal mastery, as well as to Sharon Parish who worked closely with him to create the amazing and illustrative handouts for this course.

You might want to check out www.moretolife.org/calendar to see what’s coming up in your neck of the woods…or even if the particular course you want is further away than that!

One of the Making Money Count participants showed up Sunday morning with a stack of fake $10,000 bills and his camera. The picture above shows us having some fun at the end of a very full and very enriching weekend.

Enjoy! ~ Peggy

To all of you, congratulations for setting such a high bar for our coaching program. The MTL students you have coached have been grateful for the quality of coaching you have provided. And from your self-reflections and from the stories you have told, it seems you have found a real and solid way to make a difference in the lives of others while making a difference in your own. Truths have been told, progress has been made, confidence has been raised to new heights, and deep connections have been made with peer coaches.

Leading the coaching initiative has been a literal dream come true for me. There are many thank you’s: to Sophie Edwards and Steve Kromberg for creating the initial framework, to Pascale Ascher for designing a wondrous, elegant, life-affirming course, to Brocas Walton for teaming with me and with Pascale to present Phases 1 and 3 and to ride through the plethora of forms coming through email, to Rebecca Kuhn for your competent and graceful management of the spreadsheet, to Wendy Bouman for seeing the vision of what could happen in South Africa and for making it a reality, to Judith Kotze for being our support, to all the willing volunteers who opened their lives to these capable coaches, and lastly, to all the participants in this pilot course – we learned a lot from you. From you, we learned how to hold a vision, we learned about passion, and we learned about the sacredness of human beings being human with other human beings.

Thank you all.
