ALPHA BABES: Women of Mythic Significance

Are you an Alpha Babe?
Do you know any Alpha Babes?
Want to become an Alpha Babe?
Want to create one for your stories, games, art?

This seminar is for you.

After the Goddess...
After Feminism....
After The Rules....
What's a Girl to do...?

Become an Alpha Babe!

Discover who they are, why they're important, and how you can become one, love one, raise one, and work creatively with the archetype.

Neither harpy nor harlot, doormat nor drudge, the Alpha Babe is an exquisitely balanced combination of Strength-Sensitivity-Sensuality-Smarts, serving her own Higher Self and the Greater Good.

This seminar covers:

  • The concept
  • The need for this unique individual
  • Examples from myth, legend, history, current events, and media
  • Who is and who is not an Alpha Babe
  • The Inner Drives, or chakras, and how the Alpha Babe uses them
  • The Geography of Creativity and how the Alpha Babe works from the higher planes
  • Relationship dynamics plus sex, passion, and love -- from an Alpha Babe perspective
  • Characteristics, including some from the Warrior path and the Magician path. Suggested use: select a characteristic and --
    1. identify it in yourself: strong, weak, medium
    2. identify it in others: friends, family, public-historical-legendary figures
    3. practice embodying the characteristic for one full week and note its effect on you and on others
    4. teach it to someone else

Use this seminar to learn insights and techniques from the Ageless Wisdom to become an outstanding individual who exemplifies integrity, daring, innovation, honour, interconnectedness, caring, loyalty, and vision... who just happens to be housed in a female body.

This seminar has been presented to Walt Disney Feature Animation, Moondance Film Festival, Screenwriting Expo, American University Women's Association, and more.

Seminar CDs available below.

"Pamela enabled me to couch my sit-com character as a new female archetype [Alpha Babe], and gave me a fresh approach to pitching that took me out of the personal and onto a higher plane. She also helped me shape my own feminine persona that I take into the room for business meetings. All of this in just a short session. Her insights are invaluable and I am delighted to recommend her to performers as well as writers."

CYCLES AND SYSTEMS
The Science and Magic of Conscious Creativity

Want to feel more control over your personal existence?
Want to exert more effective influence in the world around you?
Want to better understand yourself and others?

Everything that exists belongs to systems and is composed of cycles, from atoms to families to businesses to galaxies. Learn how these cycles and systems work and you can positively affect your relationship with them:

  • Your personal life - physical, emotional, mental, and creative stages from arrival to exit

  • Your relationships - lovers, family, friends, colleagues, clients, competitors

  • Your projects - gardens, events, art, products, businesses, civilizations


This presentation explores what is often called the "magic" of creativity with a view to making you more of a "Magician" - someone who sees patterns where others do not see them and creates patterns where they did not exist before.

Using the Magician as the archetype of conscious creativity, we cover different types of "magic" or systems theory:

  • Individual growth and development patterns - childhood, adulthood, maturity, and more

  • Inner Drives Centers of Motivation [chakras] patterns - sacral, solar plexus, heart, etc.

  • Astronomical/Seasonal patterns - day, month, year, and longer

  • The 4-part Creative Cycle - spark of genius, development, delivery, recovery


What about that ever-present Resistance to Change we all encounter? You'll receive effective time-tested tools to counter it and ingenious ways to avoid it altogether.

The information and inspiration in "Cycles and Systems" will confer a distinct advantage by helping you become more conscious about your self, your relationships, and your creativity.

Remember - one person's "magic" is another person's "science." Learn how to make the science work for you and then create what seems like magic.
