Y’all…I did a thing and I’m celebrating 🥳 becoming a 𝗖𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗪𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵!⁣
⁣
I started this journey with the inaugural cohort of in May 2023 and, while I knew deep down it would be an amazing experience, I was (and still am) blown away by just how transformative this process was.⁣
⁣
I unlearned and learned a lot about myself, the systems that benefit from keeping us stuck and small, the coaching industry, how to be a coach and what a coach is and isn’t, how to hold a heart-centered space and practice with care, ethics, and integrity. Oh, and I learned a bunch of coaching tools, too. 😉⁣
⁣
Through the certification, I found my strengths as a coach in my presence, compassion, and curiosity and bring those to each session to help folks explore what’s on their heart or mind, what’s important to them in that moment. ⁣
⁣
There’s so much noise (literally and also in the online space) around us all the time and we can all too easily lose touch with our own inner wisdom. ⁣
⁣
If you’d like help connecting back to your inner wisdom, creating more self-trust, more presence, more joy, I would be honored to partner with you! Together we’ll co-create a space for you to be heard, to bring your whole self, to slow down and intentionally decide how YOU want to create YOUR fulfilled life.⁣

Getting clear on my holiday intentions -

I’m settling back into work after a long weekend off for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving has been one of my favorite holidays for many years, but in the past few years my relationship to it has become more complicated. The more I learn and understand the history that lead to Thanksgiving becoming a nat...

From my heart ❤️ -

I’ve been sitting with the heaviness of the ongoing events of the world feeling a mix of emotions - overwhelmed, heartbroken, disheartened, questioning, examining the privileges I hold. (I’m grateful to be held in exploration of my privileges by my mentors Shirin Eskandani and Emily Anne Brant)

Say Goodbye to Empty Resolutions -

As I look ahead to the next 10-ish weeks, I can’t help but think about how busy they will undoubtedly be with holiday prep, travel, celebration, time with family and friends.

🥳 Celebrating 3 years in business! 🎂
I’ve been reflecting on the past 3 years, my own evolution, the evolution of my business, and the evolution of how I am in my business.
And, it’s been fun to see how much has change + how far I’ve come.
I met up with my friend and former life coach Rachelle Indra a few weeks ago and she reminded me of the time I wanted to walk away from physical therapy and my business.
I was about a year into business and I didn’t know how I wanted it to grow, didn’t know what success meant to me, and was at a cross roads questioning if physical therapy still the profession for me.
I was looking around and comparing my business growth to colleagues who were expanding and hiring. I was comparing the way I was marketing to what they were doing and feeling like I was doing it all wrong.
The problem was, I was constantly looking outside of myself for how to show up and for what the goal “should” be.
At some point in my journey, I realized I needed to stop looking outside of myself.
I needed to tap into my authenticity and inner wisdom.
So, I went back to my why and what I wanted to create in my practice.
I deepened into my self-growth journey, stepped into coaching certification programs, and began to see the impact of holding space for the whole person (physical + emotional) who walks through the doors.
As I’ve embraced my authentic way of practicing (or as my mentor would say, my own magic and medicine) in physical therapy and now in coaching, it’s brought a sense of grounding, calm, and joy in knowing that I’m where I’m meant to be.
I’m so proud of myself for sticking with it, for doing the work to look inward to explore how I want to be + how I want show up in my business and practice, and learning to ride the waves of this great experiment that I’m confident will continue to evolve with time.
If I’ve had the honor of holding space for you, thank you! I’m deeply grateful for your trust.
With so much gratitude,
Bre
