A Thoughtfully Considered, Well Designed Logo

Contest Brief

Hi everyone!
I'm a father and husband living in the Western part of North America.
I have a thriving coaching and training business and am creating a sub-company which needs a logo that is powerful and clear.

The core of what I do is to help people develop skills of communication, self-management and self-mastery in developing their thinking and abilities to use their imagination to get and stay inspired and motivated. I also help them to let go of negative emotions and find joy in taking responsibility for their lives and businesses.

For this logo I have some colors I've attached, and I welcome the use of white and even grey if you find it helps the image. I want the name Second Nature NLP in the logo. I like a balanced type of image, something towards symmetry. I would the wording to be clear, not script.
For the shape and imagery, my sense is that I'd like there to be a balanced use of positive and negative space. I really like images that can be looked at from the positive space, and then you can change how you look at it and it be negative and the image changes. Almost like an optical illusion with shape, positive and negative space.

I will stay in close contact and update as this develops. I've had friends have a great experience here with their logos, and I look forward to the process! thank you.

    Ok, please know that I don't have any actual images to offer you for inspiration. That is in part because the work I do is so much based in language. Whatever is inspired through you the artists is what I'm interested to explore. Here are a few more statements to support your inspiration that connect to my work and brand story:

    1. The oak lives fully developed inside the acorn(seed) *I'm not looking for trees or leaves here, this is just an idea to consider translating.
    2. All of the work I do with people is to increase their experience of wholeness. When I say Second Nature, it is in how a person continually acts and takes responsibility for their lives through action and habit.
    3. Freedom is a responsibility, not a right.

    I would like you to not use the leaf element. Also, I am seeking that this logo be integrated in that the words Second Nature work together, not heavily contrast or separate as to over-focus on any one word. I still am looking for a smart use of negative space. The element of 'the seed containing the fully grown nature' is one that fits well with my brand story. Thank you
