Her goal is to help them understand the mission of their business and their personal role in relation to that mission. This alignment is key to success and fulfillment in one's professional life.
One of the most enlightening parts of the discussion centered on the concept of 'being versus doing.' Zovig stressed the importance of tuning into our natural way of being.

Regarding organization within companies, Zovig highlighted the symptoms of being off-balance.
