Spotlight On — New Business Development Program
If we've learned anything over the years of developing the WEL-Systems Institute
it's that people are innately magnificent! Our greatest challenges do not
come from the fact that we're puny and inept, they come from the relentless
insistence on our own mediocrity and our commitment to incremental change.
Now, for the first time since the inception of the Catalyst for Change certification
experience, we have created a Space into which can flow the intense focus
and intention of Catalysts for the creation of their own successful WEL-Systems-based
businesses.
We continue to witness that WEL-Systems Catalysts are amazing people! Their
creative natures and intuitive and innovative way of moving through the world
not only invites but demands expressions of their discoveries that carry the
unique signature of who they are in the world, without denying themselves access
to a larger community of others of like-mind. Whatever that compelling pull
is for you - author, artist, CODE Model Coach™, Educator, Facilitator, etc.
- we know that the power is not in the thing itself but in you being fully
engaged and present in its expression.
To help existing Catalysts, and those on the path to Catalyst, step into creating
a business expression of the uniqueness of who they are, we've created the
ACE (Accelerated Company Evolution) Project Process for those who are ready
to engage. Designed to work through a WEL-Systems Manifestation Spiral™ process,
this three-month intense engagement is designed so that you can:
- discover how to continue to create a meaningful life as your world changes
- design your business in a way that honours your meaningful life AND creates
a revenue stream
- not only respect your vision but demand that it take the lead in the manifestation of your life
- accelerate business expression through an acceleration of your own evolution
The ACE Project Process, although filled with compassion and humour, is an intense Manifestation Spiral experience. Discover what it takes to collapse space and time to move thought quickly into the density of matter - and a desired result. With you at the helm, you'll engage directly with Louise, Gwen and Paul for your accelerated evolution and its expression through your business. Whether by telephone, email or in person, frequent and sustained contact will result in discovering how to convert a great idea into a profitable way of living.
The ACE Project Process is an increase in play of both the level of the game and its intensity. Business development through accelerated personal evolution - think of the possible results!
If you think ACE is for you, contact Louise, Paul or Gwen for more information. We'll look forward to hearing from you!

Magic and Miracles
Marilyn M. of Kanata, had this to say about her recent CODE Model Coaching™ experience
“Hi Gwen, I want to thank you for
helping me see beyond the dark life I have at home. Living and working full
time with a husband (James) who has brain injury as a result of a cardiac
arrest is extremely difficult to cope with. James' cognitive skills, his
short and long term memory was severely affected. When I decided to get help,
I knew I had reached out to all avenues. I had heard about your coaching
sessions and I said to myself why not, I have nothing to lose except my time.
I guess I was wrong, Gwen. You have brought the best out in me... I am seeing
another me. I would never have thought I had the initiative, creativity and
momentum to look at new opportunities for myself. Which leads me to believe
I am scoping out a whole new life for myself way beyond being a caregiver
for James.
Gwen, I know you have seen me shed tears, but believe it or not I am much stronger now and I can talk about my problem without crying. I have come to realize I have a lot of skills and strengths that I need to put into action. As a result of my coaching from you and my own research, I feel I have another strength which I want to expand on and that is in the Image Consulting area. Working through my discovery, I have made contacts with a designer in New York, a color specialist in Denver and it keeps going on and on. I have traveled to Denver for training in the Image Consulting business and best of all I laughed and had fun for 6 days.
Laughing and having fun was a big missing from
life since the time James took sick over 2 1/2 years ago. Gwen, all I can
say is thanks for getting me this far. You are a very loving and caring person.
I look forward in attending the upcoming "Igniting the Self" training session
. Watch out Gwen, I have a whole new life ahead.”
Thought Waves
Bifurcation or Bust!
...thoughts from the path of personal evolution and growth
by Gwen McCauley
We’ve just completed another series of spectacular personal evolution program experience intensives. Imagine the joy of spending 16 days working with people who are deeply committed to becoming more, to discovering just how much potential they carry, to learning from and letting go of all those events and choices made earlier in their lives that caused them pain, suffering, heartache, despair and even disease. Imagine the delight of watching their moments of insight and discovery, moments when life changes profoundly and forever … in a heartbeat. Imagine the sacredness of being present to someone as they let go of memories that have haunted them most of their lives. What an incredibly, unbelievable life I have created for myself.
And here I sit, 3 days after it has all finished, restless, unsettled and cranky (some might even say bitchy!): huge waves of energy continuing to move through my body; insights about myself and how I move through the world surfacing from time to time as I play yet another game of Spider because I’m unable to settle down to any “meaningful” work. The book I’m writing pushes through to mindful awareness from time to time; amidst the swirl of energy I can feel it pressing up against me and yet I know that I’m too unfocussed to write. Thoughts of unwritten e-mails and marketing to be done for future programs assail me from time to time. I have spurts of “meaningful” activities but they don’t last long: quick phone calls, short e-mails. Nothing seems to satisfy. Even Spider is boring, except I can’t seem to stop. It soothes my body while allowing my mind to remain blank so that I can process all this swirling of energy and information.
This is a pattern that I have and that I know many others experience when they have moved through an experience that gets the juices flowing. I used to fight it and beat myself up relentlessly for wasting time, for lacking drive and willpower. I used to believe that these periods of swirling, churning, unfocussed, unsettled, restless, crankiness were active proof of how lazy, purposeless and selfish I was.
But time and a growing acceptance of how I move through my life with a brilliance that is all my own has helped me to see these periods of flux differently. I now celebrate them because I know that they are the launching point for a new and magnificent unfolding of my life into more. I know that when I give myself permission to simply be present to me in these times of uncertainty and churn that I am simply in the midst of a bifurcation process …who I have been has been invited to become significantly more by being in the presence of these seekers who are themselves committed to becoming more …what has held meaning, in the way it has held meaning, is now being reexamined at some fundamental level. And when the chaos subsides, if I simply breathe into it, relax my body and don’t press for resolution before the process is complete, I will discover a whole new Me ready and eager to step into the next phase of my life. I don’t know who will emerge, but I have the certainty of knowing from previous experience that I will like the new Me and that I will get to experience my life as an even more profound and sacred voyage of growth and evolution than it has already been. I know that I will have even more to offer to my family, friends, clients and colleagues.
Imagine! All this from relaxing into seething agitation! Ten years ago I wouldn’t have thought it possible. Today millions continue to believe that it isn’t; that profound personal change only comes from lots of hard work over extended periods of time. That may be in their world, but in mine, it is fast, painless and allows time for fun …anyone for a game of Spider?
