WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT BEING A COACH?
Celebrating my clients!!! I also really love going into the “darkness” with them. There is
nothing more fulfilling to me than figuratively taking my clients’' hands and walking them
out of their fear, or grief, the deep emotions, and back to the light. Those moments add
even more to the celebration. I take these women with me in my heart everywhere I go.
Their tears and triumphs are a part of me forever. That exchange is WHY I do what I do.
WHAT ARE SOME THINGS YOU’VE NEEDED TO
OVERCOME ON YOUR JOURNEY TO SUCCESS?
FEAR. And heartbreak. And my anxiety around other women, believe it or not. I think the
very first moment my life actually changed courses, was on a work trip to Vegas where
the group bonding activity was sky diving. It was my worst fear in life. I’m terrified of
heights and flying. But as I watched everyone land, so full of adrenaline, I cried, so
frustrated at what I was missing out on by being afraid. I decided in that second to jump.
When I landed, I dropped to my knees and it felt like fear literally left my body. It was a life
changing experience. (No I wouldn’t do it again!) This was another moment I “met” myself.
The heartbreak was the thing though, that was the third time I really “met” myself. I
almost lost myself. Truly. I think the few clients I had, and Diva Business School at the
time, are what saved me. And a life changing solo road trip across the country!
WHAT WAS THAT EXPERIENCE LIKE?
It saved me. I had an intuition that I needed to go on a journey to fall back in love with
myself and heal my heart. I visited the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, took myself on a
date in the French Quarter. I saved a dog on the side of the road in Baton Rouge, I drove
through canyons in Colorado, saw a healer in L.A., put my two weeks’ notice in while at the
MGM Grand in Vegas and slowly left behind the life that was no longer me. I brought
myself back to a NEW life. I was very brave. In my most vulnerable state, I took the whole
Facebook community with me via Facebook Live. It’s now one of the best memories of my
life.
