Inner Dialogue
One-on-one work with Natalie Zend, based on the work of Larry Nusbaum, MD
The Inner Guidance process, developed by Dr. Nusbaum, empowers you to be a potent leader in your own life,
and in the world. Most people achieve clarity in one or two sessions.

Perhaps you find yourself at a crossroads. A big decision lies before you: to begin, or to end, a job or even a career; to leave a relationship—or to start one; to move to another country, or deepen your roots; to start a whole new phase in your life, or stay just where you are.
Or maybe there’s an impulse within you to take your work—and your life—to a whole new level. But uncertainty and confusion are holding you back, or you’re just not clear on which direction to take. Or you’re playing at the edge of exhaustion under the pressure of your work, daunted by the magnitude of the challenges, and doubting whether you can really make a difference. |
Perhaps you’re about to embark on a new creative project or a new collaboration.
Whatever your predicament or opportunity, I will guide you to access your own inner navigation system. This kind of compass within comes as standard equipment for every living being, from dragonflies to dolphins. But humans have learned how to override it. Much of the time we live our lives from the outside in, based on what we’ve done before, what we’ve been taught, what others expect of us, or the opportunities that we see out there. In a session with me, I will help you reestablish a dialogue within yourself, with your own inner guide. You’ll get no advice from me! Instead, you’ll become your own counselor, your own coach, maybe even your own oracle. |
Access the guidance that's already in you.
Clarity on a situation can usually be found in two sessions of 1.5-2 hours, or one long session of 3-4 hours. Sessions can be held by Skype or phone. You will walk away with a written and/or audio record of the session and a written guide to help you repeat the process on your own. See here for fees.
The method I offer, the Questions for Inner Guidance, has been developed over 30 years of clinical practice by Dr. Larry Nusbaum, MD, a Toronto-based physician and psychotherapist. Since 2008 these have been my go-to tools for making life decisions and navigating major turning points. Since 2014 I have been sharing this work with change agents around the world as one of Dr. Nusbaum's pioneering trainees.

What people are saying:
"It was a surprisingly insightful experience at a time when I needed to develop a sense of direction for a whole new phase of my life. The sessions were a very helpful source of wisdom and Natalie is a very warm and intuitive facilitator. I would highly recommend her and the process itself."
- Douglas Hart, MSc, CEM, Director of Watershed Technologies Inc.
"Natalie helped me to lead myself into places and parts of my being that I normally leave untouched. This kind of deep exploration can be difficult, but the understanding it fosters can be life-changing. Natalie's facilitation came at a crucial moment for me--I'm in transition, between careers and countries. It helped me to situate myself, my narrative, my hopes, and my place in the universe. It also gave me the tools to carry on this conversation, with clarity, with conviction, and with courage. Natalie listens, truly, and deeply. And in so doing, she teaches us to listen to ourselves, truly and deeply."
- Andrew Scyner, MA, MBA, Senior International Development Professional
"As a facilitator myself I am always quite nervous of being facilitated. I leaned on Natalie for support and guidance at a time when I needed it very deeply. I found the process easy to use, very effective (I hasten to say magically so! And from a scientist that is an odd admission!) and Natalie's presence so joyful and loving. In fact I am becoming tearful remembering it. I would recommend this process if you are feeling stuck, especially in complicated situations where more than a logical perspective is helpful."
- Kathryn McCabe, MA, Social Ecologist
"Natalie's ability to sit with me, to support me to ask simple, evocative questions of myself, and then to help me translate the insights that came up has helped me connect to a sense of calm and confidence. I feel better able to say yes to that which resonates for me, and no thank you to that which doesn't--both in the things the world presents to me, and in that in which I am choosing to invest."
- Eric R, MEd, high school teacher
"Natalie was able to guide me with compassion and great presence, which allowed me to uncover the core principle that was to direct all aspects of my life, as well as to feel what living from this place would feel like viscerally in my body. It was a truly wonderful discovery that Natalie's gentle guidance led me to, particularly as she simply pointed me towards the knowing that was already deep within me."
- Jaya Hollohan, MA, Energy Therapist at Energy Thrive
I had no expectations and was just curious to see what Inner Dialogue is all about. Well, it was unbelievably transformative! Since the two sessions with Natalie two months ago, I have a different connection with everything and everyone in my world. My work has moved to a whole new level too: people are calling me to order Juice Plus products and tower gardens; the very top people in the network have contacted me and shared new information. And I’m able to make decisions in a new, easier way.
