Creating the Impossible

The desire to have SMART goals instead of dreams is the hallmark of our time. But what happens when we open to what is wanting to move through us, rather than looking at what we think we should do?

Those who truly dare, says transformative coach Michael Neill, dream big. They aim their thinking where it matters, believe in the impossible, and learn how to facilitate a steady stream of insight by tuning into the place within that lies beyond thought.

How to Be a Prosperous Coach

Your Host

Joel Monk

I’m a coach, trainer and entrepreneur.

Recently I saw on a deeper level how all the things in my life orient around cultivating a sense of ‘aliveness’. By this I mean – what is it to be awake and fully expressed in this moment? How can I metabolize the conditioning that binds me so that I can wake up into deeper expressions of authentic, embodied human presence?

I’m deeply committed to awakening the leader that lives in all of us. We’re all being invited to align with what wants to live through us and from here we can truly serve the world with our work.
