We believe in the power of storytelling to spark change and shape destinies.
Welcome to the November edition of our newsletter, where we explore the power of inner alignment as a foundation for meaningful connections and resilience. These conversations are for you if you’ve been navigating the pressures of balancing self and career.
Selena Blackmore, a life and transformation coach, shares how understanding who you are at your core paves the way for authentic interactions in all areas of life. Meanwhile, Michelle Kuei’s journey emphasizes the courage to own your narrative and the strength of shifting your mindset to embrace personal growth and responsibility.
Pause. Learn. Move On.
Founder, Alygn
“When you start with yourself—asking who you are and how you want to show up—it naturally makes it easier to show up authentically in all other areas. It creates flow because you’re in tune with your essence and purpose, and that naturally extends to how you show up for others.” Selena Blackmore
Selena Blackmore is an intuitive life and transformation coach who helps individuals reconnect with their life purpose. Selena spent nearly 20 years in the corporate world, constantly seeking new challenges. However, she ultimately felt unfulfilled by the persistent politics and lack of connection to her values, realizing her calling lay elsewhere. Having a personal conversation about meaning, freedom, and legacy is crucial, whether we decide to be independent professionals or continue in the corporate world. Being true to ourselves is more than just a career move—it’s a lifelong path of growth that helps us stay aligned with who we truly are.
