Be Careful What You Decide to Think- It May Just Come True….

A year ago this week, I was in Bora Bora.

I was a different person in a different world.

I was at the start of a sabbatical,

20 years into a career,

busy achieving all the things I “should have” wanted to do.

And rocking them.

Yet still feeling nagging discontent.

I had in fact already undergone a recent massive personal transformation.

I was a newly certified life coach.

I was newly 50 years old.

I was a newly certified yoga teacher.

I had lost 40 pounds.

This year my transformation has been even bigger.

Not because of the goals I have achieved but because of who I have become in the process.

2020 didn't turn out as I expected.

It didn't turn out as anyone expected.

And yet it was exactly as it was supposed to have been.

Because that's how it was.

Funnily enough, in the end so much turned out almost exactly how I THOUGHT it would be.

Be careful what you decide to think- it may just come true….

A year ago, I wanted to feel excited, passionate, and committed.

That is exactly where I ended up.

I wanted the year ahead to be a year of massive action,

a year of freedom,

and a year of becoming the next version of myself.

And boy was it!

Sometimes life takes you on a different path than you expect and you end up exactly where you need to go anyway.

I gave myself permission to bloom.

And to go without the floaties.

To be afraid and do it anyway.

On Maya Angelou’s recommendation- “I decided to stop trying to feel normal and discover how amazing I can be”

I decided to create something beautiful and visionary.

I decided to be “the heroine of my life” as Nora Ephron suggests.

And to help others do the same.

I stepped into the role of being the solution for others that I had so desperately needed but couldn't find when I was struggling underneath.

What happens when you show up as authentically you?

Offering 100 percent of you to help others find solutions and a way forward to a better life?

Beautiful and magical things.

So much impact.

So many lives changed.

Positive ripples into the world.

I share not to brag or instill any “comparitis” but to inspire.

What could happen for you?

How do you want to feel?

What could happen if you gave yourself permission?

What will the world miss out on if you don't do what you are meant to?

I didn’t do it all on my own

and it was not easy.

I had help and support.

But the hard work is the internal work.

Whether it be a marriage issue, mental health struggles in someone you love or discontent in your job, decide that it can be different now.

It’s often not a massive change in circumstances that's needed-- but a change in perspective.

That change in perspective changes everything.

What could change for you?

I am here to help.
