Built For Sustainable Success: Two-Day MasterClass

BUILT FOR SUSTAINABLE SUCCESS
Two-Day FREE MasterClass

with Coach, Journalist and Meditation Teacher, Natalie Ruskin

How do we access a version of success where we can finally relax and trust that it's enough?

Some of us know deep down what we want, and may even know what we need to do differently, but we're not really doing those different things.
We may even know the truth that "nothing changes if nothing changes" but we're not living that truth yet.

In this practical and inspiring masterclass, Natalie will help you answer two key questions for yourself:

1. Why aren't I doing the things I know I need to do differently?

2. What would it take for me to live my truth?

And, Natalie will help you start TODAY at building your own authentic success, sustainably.

Natalie has been in this transformation space for two decades now. She knows that there is a simple and elegant approach, both evidence-based and wisdom-informed, to create the results which can often feel beyond reach. Natalie has helped clients create the kind of change in their lives which they never believed could be possible.

Q: What started the change for them?
A: They were willing to see and do things differently.

This masterclass will guide you through Natalie's three-part approach which includes:

1. Mindset practice

2. Support

3. Accountability

You are welcome to continue doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result.
Or, you can trade two hours of your "same" in exchange for a possible "better".

The Space

Mindset Reset Week

$123 CAD. SIGN UP

January 9-13 at 1230pm ET
LIVE & Online. Guided by Natalie

What would it feel like to have the ease & flow of a sacred practice which you could visit every single day, at the same time, in the same way?

What would it be like to quiet your thinking mind every day so that you can truly be with your highest self?

Join me in the second week of January to carve out the space, reflection and routine you desire to make 2023 be YOUR YEAR of abundance, ease and flow.

🤍This is created for YOU🤍


PRICING: $123


For the entire second week of January, join me alongside other purpose-driven women for daily practice, reflection and action-setting.

This gathering is live, online, guided by me every weekday at lunch, where you will carve out the time and space (30 minutes) to feel empowered, to find ease, to get focused and to discover what becomes possible for you when you pause in this daily, intentional way.

Why?

#1. Because nothing changes if nothing changes
Does a daily 30-minute gathering at lunch in the second week of January feel daunting?  Good.  Step into that discomfort.  Because, deep down, you know that this commitment will bring you new results and a shift beyond what you could ever imagine for yourself.

#2. Because regular practice is required to shift our mindset
If we want to shift our mindset, wellness, wealth, self-image, boundaries - we need regular (daily, ideally) practice to rewire the old, self-limiting neural pathways. 

You know them ol’ pathways well…
The ones which begin with thoughts like: I’m never gonna, This is too hard, When I…then I.  
Through regular practice, we begin to access a different wiring, a space of ease, flow and abundance.  The good news is that this new wiring is already built inside of you, available and so much more accessible thank you think…I promise!
And…you will tap into, inhabit and grow this place of calm, clarity and confidence to the extent that you spend time with it.  

WHAT is included?

  • Monday to Thursday 30-minute live audio session via zoom at 1230pm ET led by Natalie 

  • Guided mindfulness practice, insights and tips, reflection prompts, sharing in the chat

  • Inspired action setting at the end of each session with group accountability

  • Friday, Natalie leads a one-hour Group Coaching Video Session at 1230pm ET via zoom to deepen the learning and forward the action for each participant

How will this help me?

  • This daily practice will bring you into a space of calm, clarity and confidence for the half hour we are together AND it will last you for the rest of your day.  It is an investment of time and energy which pays itself back to you exponentially.

  • You will access the motivation, energy, focus you are craving at the start of this New Year

  • You will have a sacred oasis in your day to look forward to - where you can take a break from the constant inner chatter and experience a mind-massage of ease and flow.

An Undiscovered You: Visioning a New Version of Success

MelanieGordonPhotography-165A3565-1.jpg

This 2021, let us all release the limited ways in which we define and evaluate our success.

Let’s make room for a deeper, more abundant, more graceful version of ourselves.

Let’s find a place of stillness and openness, beneath the fear and disorientation of this moment.

And give ourselves permission to thrive more and strive less.

Join me on the evening of Tuesday January 26th at 8pm for an evening of discovery, bravery and transformation.

Visioning a New Success is a LIVE and interactive 90-minute workshop where you will:

  • Gain clarity as you deepen your definition of success through a guided visualization

  • Find inspiration and resonance as you connect vulnerably with other participants through a facilitated share circle

  • Bring structure to your vision of success through writing prompts and an accountability follow-through

This workshop is inspired by the Elements of Ritual set I recently launched with my friend Jen.  Throughout the evening, we will tune in to nature (within ourselves, between each other and all around us) as a way to access sacred wisdom and deeper truths about ourselves.

This workshop is free if you have purchased the Elements of Ritual set. 

Three options

  1. PURCHASE YOUR SET HERE, if you haven’t yet.

  2. Once you have purchased your set, please REGISTER HERE.

  3. If you want to attend the workshop and haven’t purchased the set, the cost is $25. SIGN UP HERE for the workshop alone.

Space is limited for this intimate and powerful experience.

I look forward to spending the evening together as we release old ideas of success and allow space to discover and expand into a more fulfilling, powerful and sustainable version of our thriving selves.
