In this talk, in Nov 2017, I explore the concept of Conceptual Death asking the question:“What must die in you so that you may live?”
What must die in you, so that you may live? Sohail Coelho at CreativeMornings Portland, November 2017.
“Sohail merges the personal with the professional in a way that helps you understand yourself in all facets and appreciate how truly integrated we are as humans. His course takes familiar ideas and makes them more holistic and actionable. By the end, I was more self-possessed and confident to make decisions almost immediately that were aligned with who I am and what I wanted. It changed the way I think and act. Sohail is not only a master at helping people claim their power, but his spirit is magnetic and he is someone you want to know long after.”
- A. Vaugh, BASIC Agency, Mountain View, CA
I’d love to hear from you.
