Surrender IS…

Letting each moment birth the next moment that comes after it, without need of control.

Not exactly the same as going with the flow. 

Both quiet and radical. 

Learning to trust yourself more than anything outside of yourself. 

The path to full soul expression.

The highest form of the deep feminine arts.

The path to surrender reveals itself when…

You reach that point in your life where you’re tired of controlling, tired of fighting, tired of strategizing endlessly, only to have things not work out in your favor. (Or, maybe they do, but you’re too damn tired to enjoy the fruits of your labor.) 

You’re tired of the doubt, the fear, the second-guessing, the half-in/half-out, the feelings of not being good enough. 

You know you’ve had enough. And you suspect there is so much more to this life than grinding yourself to be able to exist in it. 

Either from inspiration with a twinkle in your eye, or from the desperation of being brought to your knees, you seek a new door.

You are ready to commit to something that wants everything from you and everything for you and won’t settle until it is done. 

 You say yes to a ride that is nothing short of breathtaking. 

Surrender IS…

Anything but predictable. 

We’ve been working with women in the surrender arts for a while now. These are some of the moments we’ve been proudest to witness in the process of unfolding. 

Owning that her life partner just isn’t her person, and making the decision to end the relationship so she can find the love she’s always wanted. 

Owning that she wants a life partner and taking the brave steps to date and open into true intimacy.

Being diagnosed with cancer, and finally – FINALLY – making peace with her body. No matter what happens, she will never treat this body like its most important job is to look good again. 

Quitting the job she’s resented since the day she started it, even though she hasn’t yet replaced that income. 

Getting up over and over to address apparently unending trauma, and choosing to live and love fully anyway. 

Taking a slice of life for herself, away from the daily duties of caring for and schooling her  family. Exploring what she wants, learning what lights her up, and making her desires as important as those she cares for.

Following a calling toward work and purpose that simply started as a whisper, but wouldn’t leave her alone. 

Creating a business that is directed by intuition and turn on, making magic available on the daily, with plenty of space for rest, rejuvenation, and joy. 

Claiming what pleasure feels like in her body. (we see a lot of this!)

Everyone’s path of surrender is wholly different, and exactly perfect for her.  No two paths are exactly the same, so this is not a formula but a sampling of the brave, beautiful things our clients have done to move more fully into lives of surrender. 

Surrender IS…

Making space for all of you. 

Shedding what no longer serves.

Undoing patterns…of scarcity…of unworthiness…of perfectionism…of relationship wounding…of…

Uncovering what it is you desire…just because it feels good to desire it.

Deciding who you are going to be and what you are ready to commit to, and then moving toward it as if it is already yours. 

Listening to the tiny voice within that knows exactly how you are to get from here to there, that knows exactly what you need.

Receiving the breadcrumbs of clues for the path, the perfect puzzle pieces in the perfect time, the gifts you’ve always wanted, the healing you didn’t expect along the way. 

Surrender IS…

Kianga Ford

Is led by two women who both walked through the doorway of surrender a little more than 6 years ago. Almost accidentally. And our lives have never been the same. We’re now both full-time entrepreneurs with coaching businesses. But that may well be one of the least important of our credentials as far as you’re concerned. We are two of the most self-possessed women you’ll ever meet. We live life on our own terms. We are creating exactly the lives we want, and we see evidence everywhere of those lives coming to fruition. Probably the most important thing though is that we are building those lives without force or efforting, without exhausting ourselves with the endless to-do’s and shoulds of our previous lives.

We are building sustainable lives we love, and we’re doing it from a place of feminine power.

Rachel Paz

We are also women who live in the real world. We face real challenges. Last year Kianga lost her mother after becoming an unexpected caregiver. And Rachel made the decision to share a home with her ex-husband to provide the best environment for their special needs child. But we have evidence that all of these things are better when explored from a place of receptivity rather than resistance. We’ve found the old adage “what you resist persists” to be true. And we have found another way. We’ve learned that our commitment to the process of how we live **is the how** to bring our visions into reality. In our six-year journey, we have learned that it’s what we practice that makes the difference.

Surrender IS…

Is an opportunity to deeply immerse in how it feels

  • to allow pleasure to guide you. 
  • to tap your intuition and listen internally with your body for your next steps.
  • to create ritual, practice, and community to support you in traversing the unknown.
  • to fully savor every moment of your life, not just rush toward the goal.
  • to experience the richness of crafting the perfect experience for you.
  • to expand and take up space simply in your being.
