What if strength includes standing firm…AND staying open?

In line with our theme this month, strength, it feels fitting to share exciting news from Mynd Myself.
I believe we have sometimes misinterpreted strength as having to do everything by ourselves, pushing through, never asking for help, playing it safe, complying…
What if we’ve been defining strength all wrong?
What if strength is more about staying open, asking better questions, trusting our intuition and experience, setting boundaries, choosing curiosity over certainty, collaborating, and changing course when new opportunities or information emerge?
As David Whyte says in The House of Belonging,
“Anything or anyone that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.”
We at Mynd Myself are at a pivot point of expansion and we are feeling strong…clear, vibrant, and excited for the unfolding possibilities.
It is with the utmost pleasure that I announce a new Mynd Myself partnership. Henry Hawk—who you’ve seen and heard on our Mynd Myself Panel Discussions and our Podcast, Conversations with E—is joining the Mynd Myself team as our new COO and VP of Business Development.
(Take a deeeeep breath…😊)
With a dynamic and extensive background in branding, marketing, business development, holistic wellness practice and education, international keynote speaking, and the Host of the Rooted and Wild podcast, Henry is a brilliant and welcome addition to our team. A deeply skilled, intuitive, wise, and compassionate young man, Henry is also a two-time cancer defeater, a ThetaHealing® Practitioner, a behavioural consultant, a Certified Chef with a Harvard Certificate in Fermentation for Gut Health, a Certified Herbalist, and a Functional Genomics and Nutrition Coach.
Having been raised in the jungles of Panama and, over the years, having travelled to over forty countries, Henry has spent time in close proximity to some of the world’s most sacred sites and learned from people, kitchens, and healing traditions across cultures. Henry is an old soul who has packed a whole LOT of living in his life thus far. As a father to four girls and a consummate life-long learner, Henry loves to laugh, engage in meaningful conversations, appreciate beauty and nature around him, listen deeply, and help people move beyond motivation into real, embodied transformation.
We are thrilled to be in the expansion of Mynd Myself and guide this amazing portal to the next level together.
Stay tuned over the coming months for more high-value offerings coming your way!
