Embracing the Liminal Space and Connecting with Your Vision

Leona's story is not just about personal growth but also about the courage to follow one's inner calling. She talks about how, despite initial reservations due to her busy schedule, her soul's yearning for something more led her to enroll in DECS. Her narrative is a powerful reminder of the importance of listening to one's inner voice, even when logic seems to point in another direction.

Her commitment to her growth journey is further exemplified by how she navigated the challenges of time differences. Unable to attend live classes, Leona still found the recorded sessions and live practicums to be deeply impactful, demonstrating that physical presence isn't a barrier to profound learning and connection.

An essential part of Leona's DECS experience was the sense of community and the deep connections she formed with her cohort. She speaks fondly of the friendships and support systems that developed, particularly highlighting a soulful bond with a fellow student, showcasing the transformative power of shared learning experiences.

Leona also discusses how she has seamlessly integrated energy coaching into her professional life, transforming her approach to group programs, retreats, and 1:1 client sessions. This integration has allowed her to offer a more holistic and impactful coaching experience, going beyond traditional methods.

For those considering a journey with DECS, Leona offers heartfelt advice to trust in your soul's calling. She emphasizes that the program can bring about profound changes, both personally and professionally.

Leona’s Devoted Practice

Embracing the Liminal Space and Connecting with Your Vision

Leona’s final offering towards the end of the interview is a Devoted practice to support you in connecting with your 2024 vision. She invites us into a serene and transformative journey of self-exploration and connection. This meditative experience is designed to guide you towards a deeper understanding of your own vision and intuition. As you close your eyes and connect with your breathing, Leona leads you into a sacred space of inner peace and tranquility, away from the chatter of the mind.

This practice is centered around the concept of embracing the liminal space, a realm beyond the conscious mind, where profound insights and intuitive guidance can be accessed. The practice encourages you to invite and connect with the energy of your vision for the year, embracing it in its entirety.

Leona's guidance allows you to interact with your vision, asking for wisdom or clarity on any aspect you choose. It's an invitation to receive insights without judgment or the need to rationalize, trusting the intuitive messages that come to you. This practice is not just about seeing or hearing; it's about feeling and knowing on a profound level.

One of the most powerful aspects of this practice is the invitation to ask for a specific sign – something that will be your compass for the year, guiding you towards alignment with your vision. It could be anything from a feeling, a word, an object, a color, to an animal or symbols that resonate with you on a deep, personal level.

Leona's practice is a powerful tool for anyone looking to align with their deeper goals and aspirations, providing a unique way to connect with one's inner guidance and wisdom. The practice emphasizes the importance of trust and openness in the journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
