January 7, 2020

This week, Making Space for Conversations that Matter Host, Laura Prisc, reproduces a lesson she shared recently with a women’s organization focused on economic and leadership development.

Conscious Leadership is the topic of Laura’s book, written specifically for Senior Leaders who are responsible for High Performance teams and organizations who find themselves stymied by the complications inherent in leading a diverse group of

December 24, 2019

It’s no surprise, we were built to move; our bodies house and move our consciousness around and if we have any interest in living a full life, we need to be ever aware and taking care of this miraculous form we’ve been given.

When Your Body, Mind, and Spirit are Calling for Restoration and Healing, it’s Time to Reconnect with Nature, with Author Julia Plevin EP: 24

December 17, 2019

The Japanese practice of “shinrin-yoku” literally means ‘forest bathing.’ Essentially, it’s about reconnecting with nature in a deep, personal, primal, visceral way. It’s about re-engaging with nature as the living entity it is, as opposed to taking it for granted and using it for our purposes. Julia started The Forest Bathing Club in the San Francisco Bay area after returning to California following design school in NYC. Having spent so much time in a big city, she realized her soul was calling out for it; she had lost her way of ‘being’ in nature and needed a reawakening. The mental and physical effects of being so disconnected were very real for her and had to be addressed. As a designer, innovation strategist, and futurist, Julia experienced a sense of what

Powerful Journaling is Future-Focused with Leadership & Career Coach and Author, Louise Elliott

December 10, 2019

Journaling has been a source of desire and frustration for Laura for many years; she longs to do it in a powerful way, “worthy of the paper” she journals on. For this reason, she engages Louise in conversation, as Louise has developed a powerful journaling process. “It’s a process and a practice. You have to grow into it just like anything else,” Louise explains. “The easiest way is to start with lists… Do’s & Don’ts, Pro’s & Con’s. Then use it to dig deeper into what you’re thinking about.” Louise explains the power of the Reticular Activating System (RAS) operating in our brains, as the mechanism for how we notice and tune into that which we are focused upon. For example, when we buy a car, we will “suddenly” begin

Doing it Afraid: How one Woman Came to Life through Painting with Artist Libby Scheele EP: 22

December 3, 2019

We don’t always know whom we are meant to be when we are young, but if we are observant, there are clues everywhere. For Libby Scheele, they were obvious in her fascination with color and texture and a variety of materials that could be used in artistic endeavors. When she didn’t have ‘real’ art supplies, she expressed her creativity by arranging rocks and sticks. Today, her work is much more sophisticated, as are her tools… even though they are the basics of an artist: high quality pigmented paints, good paper, sharp pencils, brushes, and permission to take the time required to allow the vision in her mind to emerge. Libby studied art at university, but then was married and had three small children at home; there wasn’t time or space
