TOP TAKEAWAYS:
-
Tara-Nicholle describes the big good thing in the universe (god, source, etc., however you define it) as having three ingredients: infinite intelligence, limitless love, and creative power . . . and that droplet of the “god blob” in you is your soul. And no matter what, your soul is coming with you everywhere, even when we TRY to leave it out of the conversation.
-
When Tara-Nicholle unpacked and unlearned all the “palatable polish” that she had been taught all her life and chose to speak her truth consistently, that’s when she found the deepest authority and respect for her work. In fact, it became her trademark in Silicon Valley — as the woman who will tell even the most powerful people the whole truth, and give them the strategy to achieve their goals.
-
Everyone wants to start the process of self-actualization by setting goals and vision, but as long as we’re still caught in a fear or scarcity mindset, we’re only able to set goals driven by that fear. Fear is the root of all self-sabotage — and it’s inevitable when we begin to think bigger. So we gotta learn to ride the wave.
-
