As you enter Spring, what questions are you holding around your personal and professional life? Is this a time of transition, with opportunities to more fully integrate your inner and outer self?

Gardeners and midwives know that blossoms and birth are messy and miraculous! The birth of renewed purpose in our own lives and in our professional lives can be messy and miraculous too.

"There are secret sources of courage inside every human heart; yet courage needs to be awakened in us. The encounter with the Beautiful can bring such awakening." John O’Donahue

Spring provides opportunities to look more carefully for the green stems of possibility in life and work.
