Counterbalancing is this beautiful concept where we recognize that sometimes, what we think we need isn't actually what serves us best. It's about finding that sweet spot between opposing forces in our lives.

Somewhere in my life or on the interwebs, I discovered a simple equation to the Zone of Knowing. After testing it out and realizing how well it works, it's now my go-to whenever I'm stuck and unsure about my next move (or even just feeling uninspired or unmotivated.)

This is a client story - a true inspiration in the art of transformation. With his green light, I'm sharing his remarkable journey.

David was living a life he didn't recognize. He avoided social gatherings, depended on others to live (think money for rent & living expenses), and mostly lived in his head.

Away from close friends and family, he felt a bit disconnected. Not having a community of like-minded individuals can feel isolating, especially as a black man in the LGBTQ+ community. Authenticity was his number one value, yet he didn't feel safe to show up as himself.

So he hid.

My job title and paycheck no longer fueled my fire. My definition of success decided to flip the script.

Success was now a job woven with my core values: connection, freedom, balance, growth, and making a difference, all with a safety net of solid income.
