We are living in a time of huge expansion, transition and uncertainty.
And there are many among us who carry a strong desire to spread LIGHT in the form of self-love, freedom and knowledge.
We feel this is our MISSION.
We are known as lightworkers.
It’s like we are being guided by forces outside of ourselves … as well as inside of us. It’s a full-time job, this lightworker business.
Lightworkers are often attracted to spirituality and to therapeutic work of some kind like yoga, reiki, coaching, massage, psychotherapy, art and other healing modalities.
Trauma, dark nights of the soul, and other challenging experiences tend to mark the lives of lightworkers, giving us much practice to be all we were designed to be. We tend to forge our own paths.
Are you a lightworker?
I totally am and am proud of it!
According to Doreen Virtue, lightworkers are those who volunteered, before birth, to help the planet and its population heal from the effects of fear. Each lightworker is here for a sacred purpose.
Very often, however, life on earth with its material focus creates a form of amnesia in lightworkers. They then forget their divine and perfect identities, and also their abilities to miraculously help the earth and all living creatures. When lightworkers forget their true identity and purpose, they feel lost and afraid.
Doreen also tells us that lightworkers have 8 traits.
You are a lightworker if you:
- Feel called to heal others.
- Want to resolve the world’s social and environmental problems.
- Believe that spiritual methods can heal any situation.
- Have had mystical experiences, such as psychic premonitions or angelic encounters.
- Have endured harsh life experiences that eroded the knowledge of your Divine perfection.
- Want to heal your own life as a first step in healing the world.
- Feel compelled to write, teach, or counsel about your healing experiences.
- Feel a sense of time urgency to fulfill your mission before you know that you are here for a higher purpose or even if you are unsure what it is or how to fulfill it.
A key piece of Get Gutsy Coach Training School is to give groundness and focus to the lightworker leaders who join our student body.
We do this by establishing a healthy foundation for your work … and guiding you to travel up the levels of spiritual leadership so you can serve your tribe with wisdom, courage and confidence.
And heads-up, enrollment closes for our January 2017 class on Monday, December 19 at 9 p.m. EST. This is it!

So … Foundation – 1st chakra stuff! – is where we MUST begin.
I recently wrote a pretty epic post exploring my FOUNDATION. Sharing it with you now to inspire you to go deep and get clear on what your foundation is built on.
Mission-critical stuff for a lightworker.
MY FOUNDATION …
is built on grace, grit + guts.
And yoga, lots of yoga.
And family. My beautiful family – THE FENIG FIVE – who I would do ANYTHING for.
And the freedom to work where I want, when I want and with whom I want.
That freedom piece was the driver for me to redesign my career from New York City executive turned yoga teacher turned CEO of a global coaching and training company based in the beautiful Berkshires of Massachusetts.
When I was in the midst of my career angst and disillusionment, I would say to myself, “This can’t be it. This can’t be all there is to life.”
And I was saying that even as a 6-figure executive earning more money than I ever thought I’d earn in a year.
Because while money is awesome, it’s not everything.
And money that comes from work that’s out of alignment with your true calling simply isn’t a sustainable supply.
I learned that early on.
One of the greatest lessons of my life … and one I teach my tribe today.
My career transition has spanned close to a decade.
And it’s been the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
I have invested more – time, money, energy – than most would be willing to.
Case in point … I sold my wedding dress to buy a ticket to my first female entrepreneurs conference back in my early days in 2009! Because when you are committed, you ALWAYS find a way … otherwise, you easily find an excuse (and they are a dime a dozen).
I have gone farther than even I could have imagined.
I have led retreats, programs, masterminds, courses, challenges, webinars, calls, workshops, groups, 1:1 clients, teams.
I have created books, podcasts, blog posts, videos, trainings, summits, giveaways, meditations, communities, social media posts (so many!).
I have taken planes, trains and cars to deepen my learning and make valuable connections.
I have held sacred space.
I have facilitated transformation.
I have helped.
I have done the work … over and over and over again.
I have been disappointed.
I have been hurt.
I have been surprised.
I have been amazed.
I have healed.
I have doubled down on my faith.
I have risen from the ashes.
I have embraced + unleashed my mantra: GET GUTSY.
I have … all I ever dreamed of.
Because my foundation is rock solid … and getting stronger with every breath I take and every move I make.
Welcome to the Rising of the Lightworkers.
Let’s go.
This is Jenny Fenig sending you so much love, light + faith as you GET GUTSY.
