Buy a smaller rucksack and only carry what you need!: Business and personal learnings from Walking the Camino Paths with Jackie Jarvis

Sparks by Ignium

(Some of) The main points for listeners:

· (how) Can you do more with less…

· Walking through your ups and downs to find a new direction

· What we can learn from walking the Camino de Compostela – it’s not ‘just’ for pilgrims

· How walking transformed Jackie’s life

· If you’re feeling overloaded what would you put in your rucksack?

· How Jackie recognised the load on her back was ‘spoiling the journey’: The weight was literally weighing her down and was an exact mirror of her life…

· How the Voice of Slow inspired Jackie to rid herself of the things that no longer served her.

· Have the courage to let go of that which no longer serves you

· Asking for help maybe all you need – and it takes courage

· Learning from the simplicity of walking in nature alone – many of us are too busy to notice the things around us

· What do you need to offload to move forwards? What do you need to let go of?

· How can you travel in life a lot lighter… we need to learn how to do it rather than just being told to do it… how would you make the choice of what to carry?

· One of the hardest things in business (often) is letting go and recognising what help we need to move forwards

· How is overload showing up for you in your life and business?

· Sometimes solitude is helpful to us as we look to move forwards… walking in silence allows us to hear the real thoughts

· It’s the space between the notes that creates the music (Wayne Dyer)

· How most people make more money by being away from their business

· “All the paths have energy…” – how the Camino routes have been a place for physical and spiritual renewal for 1000s of years

· The Camino always provides… you just have to trust in it…

· The parallel with the Hoffman process – we are all human beings and we are all on our own journey

· Jackie’s next book – it’s in her head and waiting to come out “Walk and Grow Rich” – (and it’s not about money it’s about wealth of spirit)

· Jackie’s advice to us all – Buy a light rucksack and only carry what you need!
