TNT 2.0: Episode 69 with Nicola Lipscombe - BE YOU; NO MORE NO LESS
Today we welcome Nicola Lipscombe!
\nNicola is a professional speaker and facilitator; a storyteller and a story listener. A former pharmacist and academic her quest can now be summed up in one word; CONNECTION. She strives to help others and herself to become deeply conscious and present - with ourselves, each other, our planet and this Universe (or Divine, Spirit, Higher Intelligence).
\nShe is the Creator of HeartWise\u2122 Leadership, Powerful Listening, Friday\u2019s Mindful Moments and co-creator of RENEW Retreats for women. She has a gift for weaving together the practicality of western science with the wonder and wisdom of eastern spirituality and the heart.
\nYes, she\u2019s a speaking professional \u2026 but that\u2019s not all. Nicola is a writer, a poet, a Circle leader, a photographer, a mindfulness practitioner and an Art of Feminine Presence Sister. She adores nature, roaming vintage markets and op shops and is fascinated by street art. She works hard at Tsonduko \u2026the Japanese art of buying books and letting them pile up unread !
\nAn introvert at heart she seeks deeply meaningful connection and is truly not interested in your new washing machine \u2026 really!
\nShe can\u2019t be put in a box and has even written a poem about that too.
\nWelcome Nicola!
\nNicole takes us on an absolutely heart expanding trip through her own incredible wake up call to the practices she uses TODAY for herself and her clients. We discuss:
\n- Wanting to feel seen and heart
\n- Not quite fitting in
\n- The search for connection starts from the inside
\n- 2011\u2019s wake up call \u2013 a grapefruit sized tumour = the Holy Shit moment and then came the Existential Questions:
\n- What do I want?
\n- Who am I?
\n- Becoming purpose driven to full authenticity as a departure from the path of Academia I was on (all head)
\n- My goal was To Be Me \u2013 no more, no less
\n- The need to get in touch with the body was a requirement for head to heart journey
\n- Buddhist practices as part of the journey to connection to self
\n- The spiritual miss of comparison to how evolved we are compared to someone else\u2019s evolution/awakening/awareness
\n- Using mindfulness of breath and sound
\n- I don\u2019t have to BE any body in this moment
\n- In the space of presence practice we can lose ourselves, the lines that define or confine us, so that we enter FLOW
\n- The power of circles to hold the space for others to speak what\u2019s on their heart
