I fully believe that you have to go through trials to be the best versions of yourself. If you (and I) are not pushed, pulled, and stretched, you do not experience the impetus to consider greater purpose in our lives. Sometimes you experience these trials through things beyond your control such as the death of a loved one, a natural disaster, a job loss, but you may bear responsibility for your fa
ilures and struggles. All of these difficult experiences, while unwanted, have the potential to be hidden blessings to make you a person of amazing potential and to make you a person with uncanny grit, strength, passion, and perseverance. Every day I wonder what my life might be like if I didn't "screw it up". But if I move through the question and see all that I have gained from what I have lost, I recognize that I had to break and heal and break again to heal again (you know your bones usually get stronger when they are broken and stressed and heal) to gain the insight and knowledge to support other people to grow. I am not special in that way. You have this capacity to take your failures, when you identify your internal and external resources, and to capitalize on them to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life. As a former school psychologist turned personal growth coach, I focus my efforts directly on the stress and mindset needs of my clients, especially those committing their life to serving others in mental health, physical health and medicine, education, and public safety. It is so vital that these dedicated professionals have an outlet and the tools to function at the top of their personal and professional capacity. By stepping into your stress and challenges you (re)discover the strengths and gifts you have carried all along. It is so rewarding to watch clients accelerate into the life they have dreamed about when they dedicate themselves to personal growth. I'd be honored to take your referrals to hard working friends, family or colleagues that are ready to achieve their goals and grow their capacity to love a purposeful and fulfilling life. I am available for coaching via video conference as well as in-person in Toledo, OH and surrounding communities. Learn more at http://enLivenWellnessCoaching.com or http://LifeCoachToledo.com
