Leading from Within – Mastering your Energy
We are in a period of transition where the possibilities are limitless, the future of leadership invites a paradigm shift. It requires leaders who understand the power of self-awareness, authenticity, and compassion. “Leading from Within” is a visionary approach to leadership that fosters personal growth, inspires teams, and catalyzes positive change in society through the mastery of one’s own energy.
Through heart centered consciousness and learning to master your own energy the three C’s – connection, community and coherence become the pillars and foundation upon which a strong life and in turn business is built.

The Game of Life and How to Play it
For some people the joy has literally been sucked out of life like a vacuum. The busyness epidemic has created a paradigm of surviving rather than thriving. This has caused increased individual stress as well as strained cultures in the workplace.
In this thought-provoking keynote, Alison looks at life like a game where we all have the choice to take part and become a key player in our own lives.
Are you a conscious or unconscious player? Are you a victim or a victor in your own life? Alison offers various different thinking tools to help you become not only an active and conscious player of life but a thriving and joyful one too.

More Energy, Less Stress
People think they need better time management, but they actually need better energy management. In a world where people feel like they are always playing catch up with a never ending to do list it can be helpful to understand energy management. Understanding energy helps us to become more present, focused, efficient, less stressed, sleep better and have better quality relationships.

In this talk I encourage you to look at energy as a currency, asking questions like; how do you spend yours each day? Do you save your energy for when you need it? And What habits deplete your energy and what habits are life giving?

I will take you through practices so you can experience a shift in your own energy in real time. We will also be looking at the energy of language and how you speak about yourself and others can be energy depleting or energy giving.

Energy is also contagious and through the lens of understanding coherence we can really begin to understand the energy of stress and anxiety and transform to one of presence, patience and calm. Key takeaways include:

• The currency of energy
• Starting your day strong – determines how you spend your energy
• My Stop, Catch, Change Technique for interrupting behavior patterns
• Coherence techniques
• Stress reduction
• The power of the breath
• Why movement matters
• The importance of letting go

The Full 360: The Mindful Path to Better Living
As a mindfulness teacher, Alison believes that awareness in all areas of our lives creates space for change. Until we fully accept who and where we are in this moment, we can’t take steps on the path to where we would like to be. Bringing mindfulness gently into all areas of your life helps to bring trained awareness to the forefront, empowering you to make better decisions, become less reactive, less stressed and more content.

For organizations, less stressed and more content individuals leads to a healthier company and greater growth.

Alison shares key tools and starting points for people focusing on her mantra that; ‘small changes done consistently bring about lasting differences in our lives’. This session includes mindful tips to gratitude, sleep and stress management.

The Power of Presence
Using the power of mindfulness, awareness and intuition we can create positive change leading to the real results we truly desire for ourselves, our business and our loved ones.

In this talk/presentation Alison explores tools and techniques to help us tap into our potential and our true intuition.

She shares fun and interactive exercises and mindfulness techniques which helps us to experience true presence.
Most of all she asks important questions because its only by asking the right questions can people search within for the answers they seek.

By truly stepping on the path to knowing ourselves we can become more resilient, focused and self-assured and confident. This leads us to become better partners, friends, coworkers and even bosses. Key takeaways include:

• Exercises to help activate the vagus nerve (also covering what this is) in the body and why it’s important
• Mindset
• Mindfulness techniques
• Coherence Practices
• Stress management
• Navigating change
• Building resilience
