One of the best things about Sea Orchard Retreat is how much shade there is.

I’m writing this to ask you to do one of 5 things:

You see them at the bottom of the post.

This morning I mostly ran…and walked over 11 miles. This was in support of RUN THE WALL, a fundraiser to provide medicine and food for the victims of the g*n*cide on P*l*st*ne. (Hoping to get past the censors!)

Since I’m a slow runner and walker it took me nearly 3 hours.

It may be November, but it’s still hot in the Caribbean sun!!

What kept me moving was the thought of those refugees moving from each refugee camp, carrying what they can, before it gets b*mb*d.

They have to get moving to reach the next refugee camp, and arrive just in time to sit down for a while before being told it is about to be b*mb*d so they need to move again.

So I’m asking you to do one of these 5 things:

Either Donate (link in 1st comment)Share, Comment, Like, or Unfriend me.

If you don’t want to Unfriend me but are not Courageous enough to do one of the other options, then I invite you to get some Courageous Coaching with me. Seriously!

I’m tagging my No 1 hero Dr. Gabor Maté. My body was definitely saying “No” this morning! Thank you for your work on trauma and for Courageously speaking out against the g*n*c*de.

Also thanks to Milly Serpell for joining me for some of the run. Sorry I couldn’t keep up with you!!

Also Viki Holloway-Mills, Diana Boskma HC, Zoe Foster, Sophie Keith please share.

Do you remember a song that said “Money is the root of all evil?”

My father would only drive a Mercedes Benz.

Every morning he would drive me to school. As we passed the villagers who were walking to school, I would sink lower into the back seat of the Mercedes.

I could feel their eyes staring at us. This was one of the many factors that contributed to my unhealthy mindset around money.

My mother’s critical attitude towards money also played a huge part in giving me a deep-seated shame around having it.

I can still hear her voice in my head singing that song….but I'm getting ahead of myself.

Recently I took up Su Doku puzzles. The other day I was frustrated as I was completely stuck on one. I couldn’t see what I was missing.

So I looked online and found some videos on Su Doku techniques. When I went back to that puzzle I was able to complete it with ease.

It reminded me that we can learn anything we want by finding out what techniques to use.

If you are an entrepreneur and you love what you do but don’t enjoy sales, the chances are that you just haven’t learned how to do them yet.

Sales skills can be learned and with practice you will improve.

Then when it feels easier, you probably won’t hate sales so much! Your dislike of sales can be unlearned.

Many heart centred entrepreneurs feel a calling to provide their services, but have trouble charging for them. This is called having an unhealthy money mindset.

In the same way that skills can be learned or unlearned, our old mindsets can be unlearned and new ones put in their place.

When I experienced some hypnosis about my money mindset, I came to some useful insights.

I regularly drive my car to the supermarket to buy food. I am not remotely ashamed of this. It is completely normal.

Neither am I ashamed of buying clothes for myself or my family members.

Nor of going to Jamaica to help look after the residents at Missionaries of the Poor. All of these things require money.

Money is just a tool, similar to a knife and fork for putting food in your mouth. It is not evil in itself. On the contrary, it can be used to create an endless list of good things that are helpful to society.

Money is no more the root of all evil than cutlery is to blame for all gluttony.

And look how pretty our Cayman Islands money is.

What a lovely surprise to wake up to! This message from Corina:

I had 5 coaching sessions with Fiona Pimentel. And all the sessions have been tremendous! Fiona was extremely calm, warm, caring, present and her lovely smile makes it easy for me to share freely! I love her questions that help to realign my goal and it gives me great insights and directions. She listens without judgement and supports my challenges and ideas. She is an excellent coach. Thank you Fiona for keeping me on track! Appreciate it!

You don't need a coach.

Nobody actually needs one. That might be a bit surprising for those of you who know I'm a coach. Hear me out.

Nobody needs a fancy car, like a shiny new BMW i7 or a Lexus ES, but I bet you or someone you know, owns one. What does it give people? It makes them feel good about themselves and it makes them stand out as someone who is successful and significant.

But appearances can be deceiving. Many of the people (not all) who drive fancy cars secretly doubt themselves. I'm often amazed to hear my successful clients say that deep down they feel "Not good enough." The BMW or Lexus is a great way to feel good about yourself while having fun, but coaching is more effective on your inner self.

Coaching can help you feel great about yourself and empower you to be even more successful, while ridding you of that feeling of "not being enough' for ever. You won't need a fancy car - but you can still drive one!

Nobody needs cosmetic botox (unless it's being used for rehabilitation purposes). But it can give people a huge boost of confidence in their appearance, so they can boldly present to an audience and seem young and relevant. And it feels like self care.

But again appearances can be misleading. Hiding behind that perfect face there is often someone who feels insecure about themselves.

Coaching can empower you to feel confident and not care what anybody thinks. You learn to love everything about yourself. The glow you get from coaching is shining out from the authentic version of you.

So no, you don't need a coach to survive. But it can help you in authentic and permanent ways to feel confident, successful and unstoppable. And depending on the coach, it's usually a lot more affordable than a fancy car or Botox.

If I had to choose between a fancy car, regular botox or coaching, I know I would choose coaching every time. How about you?
