I quit university after my second year and took off, much to the despair of my family, to the Northern Territory.
My reason for quitting was not a lack of love for learning but that the requirements for proof of comprehension (tests and essays) left me baffled and, as I am both intelligent and deeply practical, left me wanting – and also feeling a sense of failure as I could never quite express myself in a way that had the lecturers pleased.
The only relief I had in those brief two years (apart from drinking too much) was during my second year (which I call the era of the ‘ologies… where I studied psychology, sociology and anthropology) when I was a test case (paid!) for masters and PHD students experiments where I could actually experience the book wisdom applied.
And so, after yet another frustrating lecture where I could not see the link between the education I was receiving and the real world I knew existed that I had to contribute to – I decided I was much more interested in doing than in the studying and writing about doing and so I left.
But I’ve never stopped studying and applying my knowledge.
For while, the system didn’t work for me, the taste of knowledge whet my appetite, particularly for who and how and why we are as we are as humans..and, I’ve become, to a large extent, my own test case for the application of the knowledge I’ve acquired from books and research papers and youtube videos as well as the study of almost 10 different modalities and methodologies, several businesses and having worked with hundreds of humans in multiple contexts and situations.
It doesn’t necessarily make me employable because I don’t have the formfit qualifications but it does make me both interesting and really, really good at what I do… which is support agents of change reclaim their sovereignty and design, build and exit purpose-fuelled legacy-focused enterprises gracefully and potently. I do this practically with the skill set acquired during 20 years of development experience AND more potently – through a deep understanding of energetics and how to apply this knowledge to everything including enterprise.
What’ I’ve discovered is that the root cause of all symptoms, whether it be a physical symptom of the body or a system issue in a business, is energetic and that there is a coding that sits beneath the exterior that, if unaddressed, will simply continue on creating the same situations for whatever is coded be it individual, enterprise, relationship!
However most of our solutions to problems as humans are NOT energetic – we try to “fix” what we perceive as behavioral deficits by doing things differently but we rarely address the underlying source of the pattern which is the ENERGETIC Coding.
It’s the work I LOVE doing the most… working with people to identify what the PATTERN is that keeps replaying for them and get to the ENERGETIC Source and clear it once and for all so they can re-code for NEW energetic expression.
The way I see what we do currently to elicit change is akin to screaming at an oak tree hoping we’ll turn it into an apple…. The coding for the tree is OAK and nothing but genetic modification in the extreme will change that… and the only way we can get an oak tree to grow apples once it’s already a tree is by grafting an apple tree onto it.
Which is what we try to do with most therapies and consulting and change management.
You HAVE to get to the SOURCE if you are going to elicit any kind of long term lasting change.
The same goes for enterprises and products.
If a product or service is coded for extraction from inception… It doesn’t matter how many comfy chairs you put in the tea room or how much goodwill and Corporate Social Responsibility you do in the world, you are still putting lipstick on a pig – it may look good, but it’s still a pig… and the extraction ecology will win out in the end.
If you are struggling with something and have tried EVERYTHING to fix it and it’s still the same – whether it’s personal or business – please make the most of my free energy reading and healings on my youtube channel, book in a personalized energy reading and healing or join me for fortnightly session and an incredibly supportive group of women who are all agents for change in whyldwomen.com
OR if none of those appeal, reach out hello@rebelblack.com to explore in what other ways I can support you!
