I used to think that working with a coach wasn’t for me, and I could not understand what all the hype was about… until I got myself a coach.
My very first coach was over 6 years ago, when I had decided once and for all I was in control of my own life and wanted to affect change, but didn’t know how to do it alone.
I spent time working through my limiting beliefs, my values, my past traumas. I addressed some big issues in my life at the time and made big strides to move past them.
Afterwards I completed my teaching degree with flying colours, moved back out of my parents house (after having moved back with 3 kids and a massive relationship breakdown, lacking self esteem), moved into my own space, sold my house and planned to buy my own house- again. But this time, alone.
I went on, in the years that followed, to take on my first teaching position right in the middle of Covid, navigating a kindergarten class that increased just after Covid from 17 to 24 (after losing a teacher), bush fires in our Australian capital and supporting my youngest boy through separation from his father who wasn’t present in his life. Not to mention supporting my older boys in healing this relationship after they lost that connection also without any explanation.
My coaching experience helped me to begin rebuilding myself and realise my potential.
And, I soon realised I needed that support once again, when I was navigating some big issues with my youngest boy and a change in dynamics with his father and their evolving and changing relationship.
I decided to invest in me and went to integrated NLP, having no clue what impact it would have on my life.
I walked out so much stronger than the week prior, (yes I had major shifts in a week, and once you experience it, you will understand why) and ready to tackle the world.
And I did, for a while. And then I lost myself again- temporarily.
I had gained a community of beautiful friends in my NLP family and for a while that kept me motivated and afloat. Until it didn’t.
I reached out to one of my friends in this space and asked for what I needed. And I started coaching with her, feeling supported and held 💕
