  2. The Exceptional Life Adventure

    January 12, 2012 by Peggie

    Your life is an adventure.  Even when it seems untethered.  When you’re reeling from all the amazing ideas you’ve got in your brain it can seem like an unchartered course.

    So where is your adventure heading?

    What do you want to create and be this year?

    Whether you’re ready to quit smoking, finally break the lousy-lover syndrome, start booking clients in your very own business, or are ready to make peace with your life story – it’s an adventure that you can handle.  And you can reach the destination in 3 short months.  Truly.

    Private clients have done all of the above (and more) in their work with me.

    My adventure? Recognizing my worth and building the life of my dream doing what comes so naturally.

    Living my adventure is thrilling.  As my prices increase though, I can’t help feeling that there are people who really need a guide, a little nudge and some accountability and grounding to get the ideas and visions out of their heads and into the world.

    What to do?

    I decided to take my own counsel and do what I did when I started my first coaching business (for petsitters, exclusively).  It was crazy, fiery successful out of the gate.  Probably because I followed my gut, instead of the marketing “rules.”  (Don’t get me wrong, I was a veteran of the high powered corporate sales world as well as the owner of a 6 figure company of my own – I wasn’t ‘green’ – but I was focused on what lit me up – not what I was supposed to do).

    Ahem.  Anyway.

    The dilemma – how to help (good)crazy, creative, ready to rock it out women who wanted to stay in their New Year’s budget?

    Take the specific details, worksheets and coaching I’ve been doing with private clients and turn it into a group program.  Help more amazing women at one time.  And let them reap the savings.  Simple.

    Sound intriguing?

    Take a look at what the Adventure is about:

    Leap to Exceptional Group Adventure!

    3 months focused on clearing cobwebs and taking action to see the results you want.  In three months you’ll learn to tap into your intuition, connect to all the messages your body is sending you and figure out how to apply that goodness to real, specific action in the real world.  You’ll make the real dream happen (you may have lots of competing ones right now – we’ll suss out the big mama dream and make her happen) and you’ll have the tools for life (so you can keep dreaming and taking action!

    Who is going to rock this:

    • Women with big ideas and dreams who are stuck- trying to figurie out where to start
    • Women who are tired of the lone ranger burn-out of trying to do everything all by themselves
    • Hot mamas who don’t have a zillion hours each week to dedicate to getting things done so they get discombobulated on where to start and what to do next when it comes to creating material outcomes (money, weight loss, love, production)
    • Smart cookies who have read a dozen (at least) self-help/spiritual/how-to manifest books but still haven’t found the right place to start
    • Fabulous females who know they are exceptional and are ready to start living it

    What it is:

    1. One private session to kick off your journey and set your groundwork on your terms
    2. 12 group coaching calls over three months to walk you through the Leap to Exceptional process (this is the same process each of my private clients goes through and encompasses body, mind and spirit exercises to help you realign with your truth and intuition and put it to work in the real world)
    3. Focus on your specific goal – you’ll have the opportunity to submit your weekly updates to me for private, personal feedback via email
    4. Work sheets for each module (body/mind/spirit) as well as templates and guidance for creating a map that you can stick with (one size does not fit all)
    5. Tools and real exercises for addressing your blocks, fears and hiding places once and for all
    6. Friendship and connection with like-minded, compassionate revolutionaries who are changing their lives (and the world around them)
    7. A one-page synopsis of your hands – describing your gifts and challenges as they relate to your exceptional goal
    8. The knowledge that everything you learn and do in this process is replicable, you can use it anytime you’re ready to achieve your next goal/vision
    9. Recordings of all group calls and private sessions
    10. A personally vetted list of resources specific to your goals – people or tools that I know will address your specific needs

    This is the first time I’m offering this as a group program, and I really want fun, committed people to participate.  I also want your feedback throughout the process.  This is about you and your visions and it’s meant to be workable for you.  I’ve never done this program before I’m offering it as a Beta Version and am limiting it to 6 participants – max.

    You’re invited to a “meet and greet Launch Party” on Friday January 27th  at 2pm Eastern time where I’ll lay out the program, and answer your questions.

    Enrollment will begin after the call and our first session is scheduled for Monday night February 13th at 7pm Eastern.  

    Your private session will take place prior to the February 13th class.

    Your time investment:  1 hour a week for calls. 1 hour for your private call. 5 minutes to 30 minutes a day for your personal practice and action plan.  Additional time as needed based on your plan.

    Your financial investment: $250 paid up front or $100/month for three months.

    Questions?  Totally certain you’re in even before the party – email me – peggie@peggiearvidson.com

    As full disclosure – three people have already registered for this program (as of 8pm on January 12)  That’s 50% of the intention I set to work with 6 amazing people on this adventure.  I’m thinking about extending it by a few if necessary but definitely – no more than 10 so we can have the connection we need to make big leaps.

     


  3. More than You Know

    January 9, 2012 by Peggie

    “More than you know,” I whisper to one dog or the other throughout the day.  When Deuce hops on the bed just as I’m hunkering down for a good read, she pushes her snout under my arm and I say, “More than you know.”

    When Kiera wiggles that stump of a tail and turns, looking over her furry shoulder at me with a smile, so pleased to see that I’ve arrived back to the home base safely, and with new smells surrounding my shoes and coat and gloves, I reach for her and say, “More than you know.”

    I love them more than >I< know.

    They don’t have a gauge for love of more or less.  There is no earning love or remaining in one’s good graces when it comes to dogs.  To be honest, no matter how much hands-on work I do with dogs, or how many I’m honored to learn from or how much reading and studying I do – I really have no idea how much or how dogs love.

    That they love is beyond question.

    My telling them that I love them more than they know is silly, human-thinking of course.  For dogs there is love.  There are moments (see Dog Fight) when there seems to be an absence of love, but I’m not sure that’s possible. Fighting and testing boundaries doesn’t eradicate love.  Not pure love anyway.

    It’s a human thing to codify and name and label.

    My dogs seem to love life and certainly are committed to our lives together.  They are willing snugglers, avid watchers and committed companions.  Together we share adventures, listen to the wind and sniff the life in the air.  It’s all rather uncomplicated.

    As a human though, I seem compelled to use my words to describe my feelings for them.  I want them to know that while they are NOT responsible for my happiness or wholeness, the fact that they are in my life enhances and stretches the depths I’ll go to explore feelings.

    For various reasons my life has been one of doubting deep feelings, an intrinsic mistrust of love and surrender.  Those are my opportunities to learn and grow.  Having dogs in my life helps me explore those challenges in a new way.  Neither Kiera nor Deuce will ever ‘stop loving me’ or leave because of something I say or something I forget to do.  I don’t have to be thinner, wiser, richer or more beautiful to retain their companionship.  They don’t care if I buy them expensive presents or say just the right thing at any given moment.

    They seem to me to be pleased with the life we have together.  And while my ego would love to believe that they couldn’t have a complete life if something happened to me, I have no doubt that they would continue to live and love to their fullest capacity, whether or not I was in their world.

    This is what I know.  I love them more than I can comprehend. I don’t require they be anything other than who they are.  To love them fully I’m focused on watching them BE.  That is the lesson for me in this lifetime – recognizing that being loved beyond words is a natural outcome of BEING.
