Are you all in for the

ride of your life?

It will have times where you feel on top of the world and could conquer any challenge.

It will have times where you don't know how you can take another step forward.

And...it will have times where you are putting in the miles with no one watching, no one celebrating, no one but you and God.

Does this light you up the way it lights me up???

This is the trajectory of being an endurance athlete.

In every endurance sport, all three of these states of being happen once, twice, or in an expedition adventure race or a 240 mile ultra run....maybe a hundred times.

This is life.

Life is an endurance sport.

Living out a life filled with adventure and the creation of a legacy is an endurance sport.

It requires a certain level of preparation, of deliberate planning and training, of potent energy expenditure, and of surrounding yourself with the most aligned humans to support your journey.

I love working with endurance athletes.....whether that is someone who is training for Moab 240 or an entrepreneur building brick by brick the foundation of his/her empire. The mindset is the same.

The human spirit innately craves to see what is possible, while at the same time the human brain and nervous system is designed to protect and stay within the parameters of acceptability.

I have spent my life studying, living, and gaining a deep understanding of what it is to open up the human spirit while at the same time supporting lovingly the brain and nervous system to expand what is acceptable.

Yes, I am my own N of 1 experiment.

If you know Human Design, I am a 1, 3 Emotional Generator with the Cross of Explanation as my incarnation cross.

If Human Design is new to you......all of this means that my gift is to experience something, research it, study it, mine it and then explain it to others!

So, what does this mean for you, the beautiful human who has landed here on this page.....

....that all of my background in convention allopathic medicine, functional medicine, energy medicine, life coaching, athletics, hiking, navigating, doing the things that scare me, living....has been specifically orchestrated for me to dive deep into my own fight or flight patterns (the protective nervous system part) while at the same time developing a Divine connection to my human spirit / intuition so that I can from a place of true learned and lived experience help you, my fellow endurance athlete, dance in this optimized space of energy efficiency and a deep loving internal support of your human body. This is the sweet spot for where we create and live in our most healthful and optimized state of being. This is where we run our best races, where we set world records.

Who is my work for:

*Those who don't want to be comfortable and crave living on their edge.

*Those who like direct and honest coaching and thrive on seeing very clearly their specific blocks quickly and succinctly.

*Those who desire to be surrounded by love and deep compassion while they truly test their own limits of what they have deemed possible for themselves and humanity.

*Those who are committed to the long game, the infinite game....the intersection of their Divine gifts and mission with their journey on the earth.

*Those who desire deeply to learn how they uniquely move through the world with very efficiently knowing how and when to use their unique energy for the most potent returns on their investment.

*Those who are desiring to strengthen their connection to their intuition and to develop the confidence to trust their knowing as their navigation tool.

*Those who are willing to go all in on what they commit to....to do the hard stuff and to not give up when things get tough.

*Those who are willing to be vulnerable, raw, and ask for HELP....yes help, the hardest yet most potent action we can take.

*Those who desire deeply to experience the full breadth of the journey.....the true highs and the true lows and who see the journey as the destination.

*Those who are open to physical movement as a modality to tap into their creativity, strength, and as a vehicle to help unwire and rewire fight or flight patterns. This includes lifting weights, primal body weight movement, running, biking, hiking......whatever we are called to!

*Those who are connected to God or desire to be more deeply connected in their own way to God. I do not use any specific religious context in my work, however I am very honest that my visions and ideas are from Divine inspiration and I truly believe that a spiritual life is the foundation for physical, mental, and emotional health and vitality.

*Those who want to fuel themselves with high quality energy....the most potent form is our thoughts/thinking and are willing to be coached and shown their thought patterns so that they can then from a sovereign place decide what is for them to keep and what is to be rewired.

*Those what know there will be times of suffering, pain, and growth along this journey and who have a support system around them (like endurance runners have a crew!) to support them and who take full responsibility and own their journey.

*Those who see themselves as an empowered sovereign co-creator of their own life.

*Those who desire to go the distance.......

Who my work is NOT for:

*Those who want to be comfortable. We all innately have a beautiful brain that is wired to keep us comfortable. If where you are at on your journey, you know that being comfortable IS the highest approach for you right now, trust your knowing. When it is time to go to your edges, you will know.

*Those who have areas of their life that they know deeply require significant attention and would benefit from therapy or work with a coach on that specific area.

*Those who are desiring to dip their toe in the water. There is nothing wrong with this approach and I have used it many times in my own journey working with coaches for my own healing....find the coach who is perfect for you and loves working with this approach!

*Those who do not desire to physically strengthen their body or that their body needs to heal or come to baseline before approaching my work. I love using physical movement in the form of lifting weights, body weight movement, primal movement, hiking, swimming, biking, running, etc as a tool for myself and therefore in integrity, those who work with me. If this is not where you are at YET, there is no shame in this!!! Follow your intuition for what your body needs right NOW and trust it!

*Those who want to hide and feel that they can do it all alone and on their own. I fully believe that there are times to be in the quiet and solitude of our own energy. And, I have been at the place where it was too scary for me to let go of my perfectionism (one of the biggest protectors I have had in my life). However, those who are willing to let down the guard of perfectionism find that in working with me they see exponential gains in their life.

*Those who are wanting to be told what to do and how to do it and are looking for a methodology that they can follow easily. I have been at this place too! And, there is nothing wrong with this as at times in our lives we might need this, I know I have. However, my energy works best with those who thrive on following their intuition and who truly want to strengthen that connection to their Divine voice within. Yes, I do use specific directions to support you on your journey, yet the goal always is for you to tap into YOUR OWN UNIQUE METHODOLOGY! There is only one you. And you have very specific God-given gifts for a reason.....and my greatest source of awe is seeing you tap into these gifts, harness them and thrive!

*Those who believe that their energy is in a significant deficit from burnout or other physical conditions. I have such deep compassion for this state of being. In 2018, I was here and it was humbling. My work does require that there is enough energetic reserve to push the limits of your current reality and for some, this might not be the right time, right NOW. Maybe, it's time to take care of you and pray for the guidance to be directed to the coaches and other healers whose gifts are the perfect fit for you right now. I fully trust that what is your next step will be revealed to you!

So, if you have read all of this, and if you are like me .....your whole chest is opening and you get that feeling of "this is me, this is amazing, she is speaking my language!" Keep reading!

If your chest is pounding and your heart is saying yes, but you are thinking of all the commitments you have and how things are just too busy right now, or whatever flavor your beautiful protective nervous system is throwing at you....Keep reading!

If you read this and it's a no. I honor you. I know that your next step is right in front of you and you are so loved and supported!

If you desire to experience what it is like to go all in on YOUR endurance experience, here are the details of how we light the world on fire:

Work with me!

Together we create the specifics of a three month container in which we meet for intensive 1:1 sessions along with "on the fly" and "realtime" coaching. This is true Concierge Coaching. You are an N of 1 just like me! We set true markers for our "training" time together so that we have a clear vision for where you desire to go. We leave room for revision, adjustments, and maybe even true 90 degree hard pivots......this is where the Divine inspiration piece comes in! We communicate via text/email/voice memo as you are in the moment of experiencing your fight or flight patterns. This real time communication allows for exponential and rapid rewiring of the nervous system and mental framework. You will find your results compound quickly. We can also include larger blocks of 1:1 time to explore certain areas, to design unique physical and mental challenges for you, or to assist you in your visions. To start this process, we have a 1:1 Zoom call for 60-90 minutes to really explore our fit. I work at a deep and potent level and this approach is not for everyone. However, for those who resonate with direct, honest, potent conversation, it is a catalyst that is unmeasurable. I go all in and I know you will too. Average investment is between $3000-5000 for three months experience. Simply email me at erica@theawakeningtide.com to set up our consult call.
