Awakening Your Courageous Heart

*Attention* All Heart-Centered Spiritually Aware Entrepreneurs, Professionals, Business Owners, Healers, Coaches, Life-changers...

Is fear inspiring more faith, trust, and courage or is it keeping you up at night with worry and doubt?

Is fear empowering you or holding you back from fulfilling your dreams and desires?

Is fear inviting connection with others or keeping love at arm's distance?

Do you see fear as something to befriend or something to "get rid" of?

Is fear giving you the courage to speak from your heart or is it silencing your voice?

Dear courageous powerfull friend…

I know that talking about and focusing on fear can be uncomfortable. You might be afraid that giving your fears too much attention will cause you to attract more of the things that you don't want. You might be afraid you'll feel weaker and less powerfull.

In truth, suppressing or avoiding your fear depletes your energy and only gives them more power to rule your life.

What we resist, persists and expands.

Fear can take the joy out of living and put dreams on hold. Fear can hold you hostage unless you find the way to transform fear into power. The inner conflict that comes from your desire to move forward while holding yourself back can be painful.

Have you been working with affirmations, vision boards, Law of Attraction principles and practicing gratitude with some degree of success and still be struggling with fears, relationship challenges, lack and financial worries?

You might be thinking, "I don't get it. I'm doing everything I believe is right to have what I want and it's not happening! Other people seem to be having prosperous and happy lives. What am I doing wrong?"

One of the conflicts you might be experiencing is doubting your own faith that where you are is in service to the path you have chosen when you came into this life; that all things happen for a reason and that you are where you are supposed to be.

Faith is the spark that gives you courage to walk forward without evidence that all is well, especially when things look like they are falling apart. Sometimes things must fall apart before they come together.

You can know you are ok deep in your heart while your ego is freaking out at the same time screaming "Head for the hills, the sky is falling!"

Every day you are bombarded with fear-based messages in the media, advertising, and in your personal conversations. All this paints a frightening picture of the world and reaffirms that LIFE is unpredictable and unsafe.

So, it has become "normal" and you have been conditioned to live in fear.

You've been brainwashed to believe you should be afraid about the future, money, relationships, health, jobs and careers, the economy, business downturns, LIFE survival…All of this produces sleepless nights filled with worry and doubt that create a gloomy outlook on life.

Do you see yourself here?

You get distracted, lose focus and concentration and before you know it, the day is gone and you didn't get to the things you said were important.
You do things to sabotage yourself like overeating, breaking agreement, procrastinating, over-booking yourself.
You come up with a ton of reasons why what you want is impossible and you believe it!
You know what you're supposed to do and you just don't do it. You're tried repeatedly to bust out of some of your old patterns and you slide back into doing what you've done before. Then you beat yourself up and feel even worse for breaking your agreements and commitments. YUCK.
When things get uncomfortable, you give up and run back to your comfort zone where it feels safer.
Your inner self-talk and powerfull imagination is so loud and convincing with worse case scenarios and evidence from the past to back them up that you become frozen to follow your heart. You really want to and you're just too scared.

These are just some of the symptoms of fear.

I Was Where You Are Right Now!

My Story

Working with thousands of people across the globe for over 20 years, I have found that fear is the #1 hurdle that stops people in their tracks when dealing with change.

I began to face and overcome my fears when I was a young girl. Perhaps it was the invincibility we feel when we are young that can change when we "grow up". I just know that when I was a kid, I did things that were courageous without a lot of hesitation.

Throughout my twenties and early 30's I still found the strength and courage to take risks even though I felt afraid. Fear just didn't seem to be a major barrier in my life which is why it was so shocking when I first stared terror in the face. And it started right back at me!

This happened after my mother died in 1981 and my life fell apart. I was living in New York at the time and I began having anxiety attacks. I also began to spiritually awaken and realized I didn't have a clue who I was.

I found myself out of work, out of money, confused, lost, in a ton of pain and freaking out. My whole world had crumbled underneath my feet. In the dark night of my soul, I reached out and asked for help. The support I received helped me to regain emotional stability and I began learning who I was and why I am here. The commitment to my spiritual journey became the foundation of my life.

The second encounter with terror period occurred in the late 1990's. I was living in Pennsylvania with a thriving therapy practice as an addictions counselor and life coach. I had just bought a house (my first ever!) a new car, made office renovations, and my life fell apart again. My practice shrunk 40% within the first year. I went into a financial panic and stuck my head in the sand hoping things would get better. They didn't. They got worse.

There were many times I found myself on my knees sobbing and praying for help in fear and despair. Sometimes, the thoughts in my head convinced me that my life was in shambles and there was no way out. At other times I had such a strong sense of peace and calm that what was happening was part of my Divine plan and my unfolding purpose to help others to transform fear. I also knew that if I had the courage to go the distance through my pain that my faith and trust would be stronger than ever before and my relationship with God would deepen.

Something inside of me was aware that walking through my own fears of "worse case scenarios and dramas" would be of the greatest service to others.

For the last two decades I have worked with thousands of people, guiding them to create happier more prosperous lives in alignment with their spirit.

Today I joyfully invite you to join me for From Spark to Flame: Awakening Your Courageous Heart.

Having been on the front lines of feeling overwhelmed by fear, I know what it's like to have your fears and beliefs sabotage your dreams. If that's happening to you, I'm here to tell you that you can change your relationship with fear, become who you are meant to be, and live the life you are meant to live.

Let me be clear.

I don't mean showing you how to use yet another technique to manage your fear although you will get a bunch of strategies to shift from fear to faith. I mean showing you how to become courageous, so that feeling powerfull is integrated into who you are even when you feel fear.

Have I completely freed myself from all fear? Heck no! I still feel fear. What has dramatically changed is that I know how to instantly unhook from fear and diminish it's power over me so I can be present to experience the good in my life. And here's something else I want you to know. When fear does show up, it doesn't stop me from fulfilling my life path and saying YES to the bigger reasons for my existence.

That's what I want to help you experience… Imagine tapping into your innate power to raise yourself up like the Phoenix rising from the ashes whenever you feel you have fallen and you can't get up. Imagine feeling free from all the heaviness of your life both outside in your world and within the illusions of your mind.

Imagine after all this time, that you have the key to unlock your own prison.

What new freedom would be open to you?

Every day I thank God for leading me to Lorraine. I was emotionally fragile when we started working together a year and a half ago and within only a few short months, I felt I had the strength and the courage to move through my fears. Lorraine showed me how powerful it is when you move from fear to faith, and once I made the decision to take that leap, the Universe began lining up for me. I thought I loved life before but now loving life took on a whole new meaning.

And every time I stretch outside of my comfort zone, requiring a new commitment to faith and trust, I remind myself that all is well, that I already have everything I need. Most importantly, instead of letting fear guide my decisions, I now ask my soul.- Carol Rozek, Animal Daycare business owner

Your life isn't supposed to be full of struggle, fear, and lack!

Do you know that your life is meant to be happy?

Do you know that you came here with a blueprint encoded within you for a Divine purpose?

Do you know that you have the POWER to change the quality of your life in any given moment?

It's true…..

What if you could partner with fear to cultivate faith, trust, and courage and deepen your relationship with your SELF, others, the world, and God?

What if you could transform your fear into POWER and dance with the Universe to create an amazing life?

Imagine how your life might change………

It can

It can begin right now

My wish is for you to experience yourself as courageous

Lorraine, the benefits of working with you are many and difficult to capture in words. You are masterful at taking a gentle yet firm stance with your clients and your strong intuitive sense provides a clearing for others to trust themselves at a whole new level. Your relentless pursuit of providing value and producing results for your clients is refreshing and rewarding. The transformation from fear to power is remarkable and undeniable. It is quite evident that what you have to say works and that you are committed to your message. Thank you for powerfully equipping me for life's adventures!-Appreciatively, Eunice Capritella. Executive VP, LRC International

I don't know that I have ever met a person who is so willing to move through fear with such courage and accountability. For over two years I've been in a mastermind group with Lorraine and other amazing women doing important, soul directed work in the world. She approaches every challenge with incredible boldness and integrity, and is an inspiring model for us all. If something makes her uncomfortable she runs towards it. When she feels afraid, she challenges herself to move through it. When she makes a new commitment, she ALWAYS seeks support and accountability. As both her friend and colleague, I can honestly say that she is completely grounded in integrity. She'll never ask anyone to do something she isn't willing to do (or hasn't done) herself. Her expertise as a coach and a transformer of fear is impeccable.

If fear is holding you back, you can be sure to breakthrough with Lorraine and will forever be grateful for this program! - Anita Pathik Law, founder of The Power of Our Way Community and Conscious Dialogues

There are a few things I believe:

I believe that each of us wants to be happy, free of worries and concerns that take away from having a quality life.
I believe that we're all here on this planet with a life purpose. Some of us know what that purpose is, some don't.
I believe we all have genuine gifts that express who we are. In fulfilling our life purpose, we must share those gifts with others. In that way we contribute to making a difference in the lives of others and ultimately, the world.
I believe that every person, feeling, and situation in our life is in service to our growth and evolution. When we can embrace the gifts and blessings from each experience, rather than judge and fight against it, our lives flow and expands with greater purpose and meaning.
Finally, I believe that we all want to thrive in our work and to make a contribution to the world. Bringing our heart, integrity, and spirituality into our daily lives will give us the keys to deep fulfillment and happiness.

Here's the thing…. If you've already invested time, money, and energy to grow yourself and you've come a long way from where you were when you began your journey, bravo! Now, I'm not talking about taking ten to twenty minutes a day on spiritual practices, visualizing or meditating, and spending the rest of the time focusing on all that's wrong with your life!

I'm talking about a deep commitment to your personal growth and spiritual evolution; one where you have demonstrated discipline and courage, committed to daily spiritual practices, and been willing to roll up your sleeves and dig deep to reveal the treasures hidden within all of your life experiences. This is a journey is letting go of who you are not, to reveal the beauty and brilliance of your soul as the guiding force in your life.

I shake my head when I hear people say, "I thought I was done with that", when fears from the past or stuff they've worked on before pops up, yet again. Shedding layers of old beliefs, assumptions, myths, and behaviors takes time. The deeper you go within, the more stuff you find to let go of so that who you really are can more fully emerge. The less you struggle against your SELF, the easier and faster you let go. It takes chops to look within and get to know the real YOU. And takes courage to claim the life you were born to live.

Are you ready to shift from being a victim of your circumstances to becoming the hero of your life story?

Have you been trying to get "rid" of your fears?

Ways fear serves and protects you:

Keeps you out of harm's way by alerting you to danger

Helps you to discern when you need to set healthy boundaries to be safe and protected

Supports you in developing courage to show up to LIFE

Builds faith in yourself, others, and God

Provides motivational and inspirational energy to move forward

It has been my experience that when you get to the heart and essence of most fears, the greatest fear is fear of dying which might mean actual physical death. More often the fears we experience, that can feel enormous during periods of upheaval, change, uncertainty, and transition, is the ego's irrational fear of annihilation and the battle waged inside us in it's struggle to survive and maintain control.

Irrational fears have their genesis from past experiences, real and imagined. Fear is generated by your ego and is fueled by compelling illusions, anticipated outcomes, and expectations about the future.

When we are engaged in irrational fear we are not in the NOW and we are disconnected from Source. Being aware of that simple truth can help you to take the steps to shift back to your Essence with God.

When faced with the emergence of irrational fear, having the ability to distinguish between legitimate ones can make the difference between feeling clobbered or being able to transform them with courage and clarity.

Courage is not the absence of fear!

Courage is about following your heart in spite of what your mind and feelings are telling you. Courage is an act of love and faith to do what is right and true for you; to be willing to do whatever it takes because you must!

Each person expresses and experiences courage differently. Courage is an internal feeling that can be powerfully directed outward in the world as an expression of your heart's desires and soul's intentions for your life path. Ultimately, courage has little to do with what you might view as heroism and heroic acts and everything to do with the choices you make every moment and every day throughout the course of your life. Acts of courage can be seemingly small yet powerfull in the ways you can transform yourself and your life.

You came into this life with everything you need to fulfill your life purpose. This is truer than you may realize.

The key to transforming fear is with your relationship with your essential SELF and God/The Divine/ Higher Power/Source… Cultivating faith, trust, and courage is an inside job. That's why doing the inner work is so important! If you have so much noise going on in your head, how can you hear the whispers of your heart?

When your desires, decisions, and actions are in alignment with your soul, the seemingly impossible becomes possible. This is the path of Grace. And whatever dreams you have that seem lofty are small in comparison to the vision held for you in the mind of God.

I know just imagining what miracles, gifts, and blessings might be possible can be scary because your life can change so dramatically… and yet ….

Embracing your courage will give vibrancy and aliveness to your life. Giving into fears and doubts without taking those leaps of faith with courage and trust allows you to become a spectator to your life rather than being an active participant in it's creation.

Suppressing your heart's longing creates a disconnection with your sacred relationship with GOD. It is this part of you that is yearning for expression, growth and wholeness.

Are you allowing yourself to feel that yearning?

What is your soul calling you to express in your life?

How is GOD speaking to you right now?

Are you listening?????

When you walk in faith, trust, and courage with an open heart to share your love, gifts, and passions with the world in partnership with Source, fear loses power to hold you back from your destiny.

When I began working with Lorraine, I felt trapped in my life. I watched from the sidelines, but could not or would not take the steps necessary to make a change. As I learned how to live in integrity with my core values, I began to see new and exciting possibilities and believe that I deserved the new life that I was imagining. With Lorraine's encouragement and instruction, I started to step outside of my comfort zone, to take those leaps of faith. It wasn't easy - I feared success as much, if not more, than I feared failure. But with each step I gained self-confidence. I am no longer mired in fear. It is not always easy to take that step toward something that isn't immediately tangible; my heart may race a little but I now believe in what is possible for me and I claim it as my own and so, I close my eyes and take those steps, trusting that the pathway will lead me on. - Cheryl Dobson, Travel Coordinator

After just one conversation with Lorraine I knew that working with her was going to change both my personal and my business life. Thanks to her insights, advice and support I am now more confident in myself and my abilities and I am undergoing a transformation, which is seeing my positive energy output and motivation soar. In fact, since working with Lorraine my increased positive energy and efforts have resulted in a 500% growth in my client base in the last 30 days compared with the previous 30 days. Lorraine is a wonderful and insightful coach who is guiding my journey towards less fear and more power. I can't wait for what's going to happen next! - Alex Stone, Owner of Just Too Busy, Virtual Assistance Services

For a fraction of the cost of private coaching, you'll receive over 30 years of my experience in the areas of personal transformation, business development, coaching, counseling, skill building, hypnotherapy and healing. I won't hold anything back to help you claim the life you are destined for.

Are you ready to say YES to living this life?

I have made a complete career change and left a job that, at the beginning of our work together. I had no idea how to leave. All I could see was an endless chain of long-hours, low-pay blue -collar jobs. Some fears were holding me back - fear of success, perfectionism, and a fear of dreaming big. Now I am clear that that I am capable of achieving big dreams. I am moving out into the world to meet positive, supportive people and writing colleagues. I know that I can be really brave in the face of challenges and no longer identify myself as a victim or a quitter. I am now a published author! - Lynda Gene Rymond, Artist and Author
