Finding The Gifts In Illnesses & Pain
Healing Conversation #615
— Imagine being able to be with the bad stuff of life, AND simultaneously seek out and appreciate the good. How would that change your approach to life, your mood, your level of satisfaction?
One of Jilly Hyndman’s superpowers as a coach/human is finding silver linings, finding the good in the bad, getting the learning from the discomfort. This skill -- being able to choose a (positive) perspective -- and see life from it, literally changed her life.
When we embody and believe this, we are enabled to approach life and challenging times from a place of empowerment, creativity and possibility, authorship, ownership and choice...rather than from a place of defeat, victimhood and blame.
Valeria Teles interviews Jilly Hyndman — a Heartrageous Coach, Leadership Coach, Facilitator, Writer, And Speaker.
Jilly Hyndman is a life, death leadership coach, facilitator, writer and parent with 20+ years’ experience creating safe and playful spaces for personal exploration. Jilly came to professional coaching after a career in media, marketing, communications, project and people management in both the public and private sectors because she longs for a world where everyone is completely themselves; where authenticity and self-expression are the norm; where being real is the highest level of achievement. Jilly loves helping people wake up to their true dreams, purpose and power and live according to the unique rage of their hearts.
Along with 1:1 coaching clients, Jilly designs and leads workshops and programs, including Positively Chronic -- a program to help folks living with chronic illness lighten the mental load that accompanies a long-term condition and creates conversations to demystify dying and death. She’s on the faculty of Spiral Leadership, a spirit-led women’s leadership program, and provinces pro-bono coaching for the Humanitarian Coaching Network.
After a cancer diagnosis, she re-evaluated her lifestyle and priorities, relocated to Vancouver Island in 2018 from the Canadian Prairies. You can find her hiking in forests or exploring beaches with her spouse, daughter, and dog.
