Part 1 of a four part series by Janet Harvey, MCC

Live at Choice!
What does it mean to live at choice in your life?


Part I


"Vision is born out of the abstract conditions of reverent unknowing and the ability to trust an emergent design. The bold new forms that further consciousness and change our world come through more like an inspired whisper than a definitive scream."
- Jerry Wennstrom, Author, Artist & Alchemist


What does it mean to live at choice in your life? Consider the quote above about vision. How effective are you at reverent unknowing and trusting an emergent design? Change is always happening. Without generating a foundation that is adaptive and dynamic, we live at the affect of change, often as a victim. Wake up! Choose how to dance with change so that you embody the power of your essence in every moment of life. Learn to invite change and enjoy vitality through the power of transformative living.

As coaches we have a remarkable set of competencies for trusting the process of exploring in the condition of reverent unknowing. The core coaching competency "Creating Awareness," at the MCC level includes the behavioral skill, 'the coach is willing to not know.' Within this context, ask yourself, "What do I believe it takes to be an expert in creating an experience of the transformative process?" And ultimately, what is our highest intention with the process? The highest intention is conscious evolution for being in life at choice. We fulfill this intention from our essential self rather than our outer circumstances.

The world is counting on us to do "our work," opening to the core of our being so that we deepen awareness and evoke conscious creation. Humanity is ready for a new story that reconfigures our beliefs and choices so that we evolve towards wholeness in a generative way. Every single person has a part in the writing and manifestation of that new story.

We will challenge you in this set of Expert Series articles, provoking you to open to a new landscape of possibility and choices. There are three central themes of the transformative process that we will explore in the coming weeks:
  1. Awareness comes before clarity
  2. Limits are self-imposed and self-released
  3. Wholeness is a generative process


Explore these themes as an individual so that you allow the change process to activate and engage you. Each part of the series will provide some practices to awaken and strengthen the transformative coach within you.



Each theme and the associated practices facilitate being a person who lives at choice every moment. Let this process reshape you! Be bold and begin to use this process with clients.

Here is an inquiry question to initiate our exploration:
What engages my ability to reverently not know so that I hear the inspired whisper from life calling me to grow?
