Positive Lives
I’ve been keeping unusual company – unusual but somehow strangely familiar. It all started with a trip to London last week, meeting up with my colleagues from my diploma course in Coaching Supervision. This was our final training workshop, so goodbyes were said, with good wishes and cards exchanged. I was really touched to be given a wonderful book as a farewell gift - “Who Am I?” by Katie Altham.
I am thrilled to be invited to take part in International Women's Day celebration at The Monastery, Gorton. I love conversations and connections that occur in very special environments.
The Monastery was designed by Pugin and built in 1863. It follows the principles of sacred geometry. Sacred geometry is an ancient mathematical system of proportions that uses basic geometry to create complex and beautiful architectural solutions. It has been used by different cultures around the world for thousands of years from the pyramids in Egypt to the Gothic cathedrals of Europe. It is a very powerful space.
I've always loved the meaning of curriculum vitae - the flow of life. Yet somehow I can't reconcile this lovely and inspiring phrase with its physical manifestation - two to three pages of typewritten A4, a chronological list of dates, qualifications and salaries.
