We were lucky to catch up with Alivyana Solarus recently and have shared our conversation below.
Alivyana, thanks so much for taking the time to share your insights and lessons with us today. We’re particularly interested in hearing about how you became such a resilient person. Where do you get your resilience from?
I found my way back to the heart of collaborative resilience I feel intersects all beings inhabiting this planet & the environment that supports & sustains us learning to use the strength of my practices to soften to embodying the harmony between grace & gravity.
WE Are the WEalth in WEalthCare AND The Harmony Between Grace & Gravity
It has been my observation that our greatest hope is to honor the vulnerability that is authenticity while remaining firmly grounded in gratitude, to embrace the collaborative resilience we are all capable of, and to dare to discover every lesson we have yet to learn. This hope may be found in the sacred space where kindness meets and has the potential to embrace suffering. There is so much more each of us can learn from the life story that is the leadership story unique to each of us. I invite you embark on an epically enchanting exploration of holistically healing the “brokeness” that permeates our existence.
WE begin this journey with the potential to innovate through curiosity and the empathy it can ignite for ourselves and others. Our capacity for learning invites our brilliance and our capacity for empathy invites our boundlessness. For it is through this empathy that we can celebrate the gifts unique to each of us and therefore, the conduit to our purpose and capacity for healing. In this five part process, WE manifest the WEalth that can be found in WEalthCare as WE:
Innovate Through Curiosity By:
Surrendering to the unknown
Inviting permission to stretch the capacity of our hearts and minds
Generosity of interpreting one’s behavior
Trusting in the capacity to love ourselves and others
Introspection regarding our strengths and weakness
Implement Through Collaboration With:
Non Judgement of ourselves and others
Integrity to do no harm
Healthy Boundaries defined as the space between loving me and loving you
Compassion…the sacred space where love and suffering meet
Refine Through Advocacy With:
Reliability to take action
Equanimity as we seek truth
Validation that the height of our light has the unbending capacity to surpass the depth of our darkness
Accountability for utilizing our strengths to address our weaknesses
Remain Grounded in Gratitude and Unbending Authenticity Which Invites:
The team sport of collaborative resilience
The kindness that has the capacity to embrace & transcend suffering when met with love here!
Repeat
The human ecologist, behavioral health sports nutritionist, diabetes care and education specialist, community gardener, yoga instructor/student of life in me aspires to honor the beautiful light in all while celebrating the luminary that is the artist, scientist and curator in each of us. I invite you to join me on this journey as WE launch the WEalthCare4U podcast that is devoted to exploring the past, present and future of the collaborative resilience that binds together our hearts and minds. I’ll conclude with one of my all time favorite quotes by Theodore Roosevelt…”no one cares how much you know until they know how much you care.”
With infinite gratitude for the potential to dream with ambition, lead with conviction and allow myself and others to be seen in a way that may not always be apparent as we breathe the presence we wish to see in the world through empathy for ourselves and all,
Alivyana Eislynn Solarus
Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
A few of the favorite things I LOVE weaving into my brand are…
1. noticing how & when the fabric of life weaves together the most vibrant patterns between the most seemingly unrelated circumstances
2. mirroring back to individuals the thread of divinity intersecting body, mind, & heart
3. empowering individuals, groups, organizations & systems to shed surviving & claim thriving
4. unleashing the dreams we were all uniquely born to birth in this lifetime
My current project is building a global digital summit in July that bridges:
1. Indigenous, Western & Eastern wisdom & the folks embodying this work through the thriving projects & communities they support while ALSO fully embracing our imperfectly perfect humaness
2. the Earth with the digital space
3. cultivating a sustainable community of support & safety with no agenda but unleashing the dreams in the hearts of all we were uniquely born to birth into existence
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
1. embracing collaborative resilience
2. honoring authenticity/vulnerability
3. hope for health
You already are enough. Take care to be very diligent celebrating all the ways you already are showing up for yourself in place of any and ALL shoulding on ourselves. It has been my experience that we program our subconscious with the words we think, speak & the words paired with the foods we eat. Our subconscious is very literal about what we “feed” it and we physically become what we choose to “feed” it with.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
I am most interested in locating folks right now embodying the intersection between Eastern, Western & Indigenous wisdom because I feel…this is the conduit to shifting paradigms that are…unsustainable and/or…not that.
