From a tantric perspective, at the root of what distracts and derails you from your life’s work—is a karmic knot. 

Karma is bandied around a lot—with little actual or nuanced understanding. (It is not simply “what goes around, comes around.”)

It is an energetic, repeated pattern of past thoughts, feelings and actions—and it is personal, familial and collective.

Your karma is not a flaw or a fault. It is not good or bad. It is not judgment or punishment or retribution. And it is not destiny. 

It just is—and it is a starting point. 

It’s the labyrinth of your life—a pattern you’re untangling that leads you to exactly what you seek.

What it will reveal to you, as you walk the labyrinth of untangling it, is your dharma: that which you do because of who you are. 

Your dharma is both the what and the how of your life’s purpose (and it is much bigger than your work). 

It is what you’re here to offer—and it is how you offer it—by your very nature. 

It is the dharma of fire to burn, and it is the same for you. You are uniquely, perfectly and naturally constituted for the work that wants to come through you—and how it wants to come through you.

Your dharma shows itself to you as your longing and your desire—that which is calling and you cannot ignore (except to your own peril). 

It is your path to knowing the Sacred—and to knowing yourself as Sacred.  

And it is the organizing principle of your life. 

All the aims of your life—pleasure, wealth, enlightenment—organize and materialize around your dharma, and naturally follow from you being—and acting in integrity with—who you most deeply are.

Your karma and your dharma are threaded together in a spiral—and the root of what distracts and derails you is the knot at the center of this one, continuous thread of your karma and your dharma. 

When you pull on the thread to untangle your karmic knot, it will weave your dharma—at the same time. (It has been weaving it all along.)

You will receive the wisdom, the fuel, all the tools and tenacity, discernment and experience that you need.

To know in your bones that you belong to yourself. 

To do the work you really want to do—how you really want to do it—and to step into your natural capacity to lead.

With faith and trust and clarity you cannot lose—because it is in you.

That is the gift of your karma—and your willingness to untangle it.

There is a space for you to work with me privately to untangle your karmic knot—to step into your natural capacity to lead doing the work you know you are here to do.
