Love is not the same thing as logistics, and there are a lot of
logistics to bridging love from the shores of two different
cultures.
I have a lot of respect today for those who choose to build such a bridge of
love. I have learned from my own cross-cultural marriage that it takes
tremendous patience and listening. Much more than a normal human being is
capable of. :-) So sooner or later, one way or another it will require of one or
both super-human effort.

Evolving as todays interview reveals.

Here are a few words about Jean-Philippe (J-P) and Lizzie Powell.

We met at work here in Basel, in 2009. Then J-P left his job as a
woodworker, to jump into the unknown and train to be a teacher of adults. His
dream was to teach adults carpentry, which had been his craft for the previous
30 years or so.

He lived over the border in Alsace, France, and I continued living and working in
Switzerland, for the same company where wed met. We saw each other every
weekend and probably could have carried on like that for a long time. Theres
something very rich in having ones own life and yet having a very special
person in it at the weekends and on holidays.

In 2010, J-P qualified with flying colours and then began the long slog to find a
suitable job. It took him over a year to find one and he had to expand his
search to the whole of France.

The teaching job he was eventually offered was in Paris and so, in Aug 2011,
he left Alsace and moved to Paris. It was in Paris, that J-P discovered yoga for
the first time. He was so blown away by the complete, holistic approach to life
that his yoga teacher introduced him to, that it wasnt long before he decided to
become a yoga teacher. At the moment, hes into year 3 of his 4-year yoga
teacher-training course and has already started teaching yoga here in
Switzerland.

Whilst J-P was living in Paris, he was working in schools with young teenagers
from very challenged backgrounds. For most of them, French was not their first
language and their families were living in very difficult situations. For J-P,
learning how to relate to these kids was a massive undertaking. He received no
support or training from the schools or the state and had to work it all out for
himself. One of the first things he worked out was that if he wanted the kids to
change, he had to change his approach to them first. He turned to his yoga
studies for inspiration and found it. By the time his final contract came to an
end, he was making connections with kids who had always viewed teachers
and schools as the enemy.

Meanwhile, I was still living in Switzerland and by this time, dreaming of being
my own boss. J-P and I were seeing each other every 4-6 weeks, for
weekends and holidays only and as time went on, being apart for such long
stretches became tougher and tougher.

In the end, we both decided wed had enough of living so far apart. It was time
to make a decision! J-P asked me to marry him and in 2015, thats what we
did. : )

We have a great life! But its not been without its sacrifices. J-P gave up his life
in France to come and join me here. Up until now, he hasnt been able to find
work, as the Swiss dont recognise his teachers qualification. So hes spending
his time now on his yoga studies and practice, and on building his yoga school,
one student
Evolving at a time.

As for me, Im still not my own boss and for the moment, Im very thankful to
have a full-time job that pays our bills. On the other hand, working full-time
doesnt leave me much time or energy to devote to anything else.

So what are we doing??

Were evolving.

J-Ps English is getting better every day but he still struggles to understand
English when its spoken fast. So he needs a system thats in French and
thankfully, a lot of the trainings in the system we use has now been translated.
In the meantime, while he waits for translating of the back office and marketing
materials, hes working on building a yoga product that he will market to the
French-speaking world.

Thank you for the great reminders today JP & Lizzie! :-)

I am reminded of the statement: If I dont go within, I go without.

Gaining self-awareness, that naturally longs to be shared, which

introduces story. The story of relationship as you have beautifully
detailed. A shared story by way of:

1. Responsiveness in the relationship.

2. Support of a persons transformation.
3. Then nurturing an ongoing relationship.
4. Thereby building a person, empowering building of income.
5. Next step being the call to unity in relationship

Because Together, We Overcome.
