When a caterpillar dissolves inside its cocoon, it doesn’t simply grow wings — it completely transforms. Hidden within that chaos, imaginal cells awaken, carrying the blueprint of the butterfly already within.
In this episode, Dr. Mark Dunwoody explores how this natural mystery mirrors the human experience of transformation — and how coaching serves as the safe space where these imaginal cells of possibility can emerge. Drawing from Healthy Rhythms for Leaders, Mark reflects on the seasons of change, our resistance to what’s new, and the courage it takes to trust the rhythm of becoming.
Through story, metaphor, and quiet wisdom, The Imaginal Within invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and rediscover what’s already waiting to unfold.
Recorded in the spirit of Mark’s “Ebb and Flow” retreats in Ireland — experiences designed to awaken your imaginal potential and restore your rhythm for the road ahead.
