Do Less, Receive More, Achieve a Greater Impact: an interview with Christine Arylo, Conscious Leadership Coach & Advisor

Christine Arylo has been a catalyst, mentor, and advisor for established and emerging leaders, from conscious business organizations and social impact entrepreneurs daring to make change, to change makers and influencers in a wide spectrum of industries, including healthcare, entertainment, law, government, financial, tech, education and academia. Her work and presence hits home for all people seeking to create a better world – for humanity, the people they love and lead, and themselves.Christine shared that she grew up in Chicago. She wanted to pursue a career in the fashion industry, but her mother discouraged her, saying that artists don't make any money. After receiving her MBA from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, she took a job with The Gap as an employee communications specialist.During an all-hands meeting, the CFO of this profitable, $15 billion revenue Company announced that they were being dinged by Wall Street because their sales growth had slowed and so they were not going to pay bonuses to their employees. It was at that moment that Christine began to question the relentless pursuit of more in our culture, and how so many of us are imprinted by the belief that financial security is equivalent to true security. Christine shared another epiphany she had when she was co-leading a retreat in Costa Rica. They were going ziplining, and she had all these things in her pockets, including her expensive sunglasses. And she realized that all her stuff was holding her back - that she couldn't hang upside down and be free because she was laden down with too many things. Seven months later, she sold her house and her car and became a nomad."I have this trust that my security comes from my ability to really tune in to what is right and what is real within myself, and then also be in co-creation with the world and the universe to guide me. It's a way of life that I feel is true freedom." Christine AryloKey takeaways: - The importance of faith and trust and of understanding the more emotional aspects of money. Without this understanding, No matter how much money we accumulate, it can often never feel like enough.- The importance of knowing the false dichotomy that our culture sets up. Either you have to sacrifice your security and struggle and do without in order to have your freedom, or you can have lots of money and things, but you're going to have to sacrifice your wellbeing or your soul. This is just not true. Christine advocates finding the teachers and mentors and wisdom traditions to help you put practices in place to notice and work with the fears that make you believe this false dichotomy. - Women in general have difficulty receiving. Christine walked us through a practice of slowing down, getting in touch with our level of energy and asking what it is that we need to receive in this moment.About the guest:Christine Arylo, MBA, is a transformational leadership advisor, teacher and best-selling author.
