I Went From Crying In My Office Every Day To Coaching World Leaders. Here's How…
I realized that if I wanted peace and happiness, then I would need to become dedicated to healing myself.
Three months after my first daughter, Maggie, was born, the doctors told us she may never walk or talk.
The news broke me apart.
I spent most afternoons crying in my office at work, until I began to ask myself some very simple (but painful) questions:
That's where my inner work began.
I realized...
I realized that if I wanted peace and happiness, then I would need to become dedicated to healing myself.
Then...
Then I became committed to my inner work, practicing daily, targeted exercises that transformed me from within.
But after two years...
After two years of intense inner examination, I'd achieved much more peace. But I still wasn't happy in my professional career.
I relentlessly pursued the life I wanted to live.
When my coworkers popped in one morning and asked if I wanted to join them at an event for the day, I jumped at the opportunity.
Little did I know…
That event would change my professional path for good.
Because as it turned out, it was an event for coaches.
When I walked through the door, I had no idea what a coach even was. But by the time I left, I knew I was destined to be one.
I knew that I was meant to work with world leaders and global change agents.
I realized that I was meant to be on-stage sharing ideas that helped people reach their full potential.
Within the next year, I went through the necessary training to become a coach and began working with clients.
I was still working at my corporate job, but I coached my clients in my car on my lunch breaks and from home on the evenings and weekends.
I relentlessly pursued the life I wanted to live.
I had seen how I had healed my own suffering by "coaching" myself, and I became extremely committed to helping others do the same.
Along the way, I used every difficulty in my own life to equip myself further.
I became certified in Applied Positive Psychology. I got certified in Emotional Intelligence. I became a certified resilience trainer. And I became a Trauma-Informed Coach.
I did these things first to help, heal, and equip myself to thrive. And as a result…
I have all this expertise and experience to share with the clients I serve.
