Everyday Mystic @ Work is now Brio Leadership
The freedom we have as entrepreneurs in the twenty-first century is glorious! We have the freedom to design our own destiny, to create new businesses, to dream big or small or in-between. And we have the freedom to change our minds and the names of our businesses. I exercised that freedom last week by changing the name of my new business to Brio Leadership. The reason for the change springs out of several synchronicities I’ve been recently blessed with. (I believe that the Divine communicates with us in direct and indirect ways, and that there are no coincidences, only synchronicities.) Over the past six weeks, several people have lovingly questioned me about the name “Everyday Mystic @ Work” by asking, “Don’t you think that the word mystic is misunderstood and could create a barrier for some of your prospective clients?” It all culminated on a plane ride home about ten days ago, when I just knew- that it was time to change the name – I was tired of defending it.
So, with a little help from my friends last week, I set about brainstorming a new company name and fell in love with Brio Leadership. Brio, Italian for “spiritedly and lively”, has been a word that I’ve been fond of ever since I started my first business, KR Consulting. When looking for a name for that business, I pondered the musical term “con brio”, which means “with spirit”. (I trained as a classical musician in my youth.) At the time, I couldn’t make “con brio” fit into a business name so I rejected it. Finally, I am able to consecrate my love for this Italian word by incorporating it into the name of my business.
Welcome to Brio Leadership, where we are dedicated to helping individuals and teams transform their lives by integrating spiritual values into their lives and workplaces.
Blessings,
Kristin
