With love from love

What does love want you to know?

Seven years ago I developed a Coaching Toolkit which was a series of postcards from individual soft skills sent to you whilst on their holidays. 

It read like a series of love letters from aspects of yourself, each asking to be understood better, including, for example, postcards from motivation, judgement, confidence, communication, change, decision-making, and so on. 

For Valentine’s Day this year, I had thought I’d just be sharing that toolkit with you – offering it as a means of deepening your relationship with yourself. And I am...and yet another postcard made itself known at six in the morning over the weekend and asked to be written. 

A postcard from love. 

Perhaps before reading my own postcard below, you could sit for a while and consider what emerges for you. 

To write words that follow: 

Dearest one, 

And fill the space before writing the words: 

With love from love x 

To get your copy of my Coaching Toolkit, DM me here on LinkedIn or email alison@alisonsmith.co 

I’ll be back on 29th February with insight about taking a giant leap in your life (not just celebrating the fact that the extra day means your birthday leaps a day (which I didn’t know is why the year is called a leap year!)). 

Happy Valentine’s Day,

Alison x 

And here is that postcard from love:
