"Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice: It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved."
-William Jennings Bryan
It took me far too long to realize the truth of this statement. I constantly found myself waiting for my life to happen. Waiting for the "perfect" circumstances to finally start living. I felt like I was simply passing the time. Not really living, just existing.
I would tell myself things like, "Well once we have $x amount of money saved up, then I can do something I'm passionate about." or, "If only I wasn't stuck in this job, which I have no interest in or desire to get promoted in, then I'd be happy." or a million other things that stopped me from taking even a single step towards a full life I knew I deeply desired.
In the meantime, I steadily slipped into a deeper state of unhappiness and helplessness and I didn't even realize it. I felt like I woke up one day and didn't even recognize the person I had become compared to who I used to be and - more importantly - the person I knew I deserved to be.
Something HAD to Change
I was sick of feeling like a failure, even though I was very successful by every external measure I could think of. I realized I couldn't waste any more time being at the effect of my life, it was time to be the cause of it. I needed to start taking responsibility for every aspect of my life and start choosing what my destiny was instead of continuing to just wait for it. I took a chance and enrolled in a coaching program to begin chasing the dream of my work having a meaningful impact on my life and those I have the pleasure of working with.
My Purpose
I am passionate about helping others achieve things they never thought possible. Empowering my clients to think differently, take responsibility, raise their consciousness, and choose their own destiny is what gives me meaning.
I know my clients are the experts of their life, their dreams, and their struggles. Working with them to understand who they truly are and what is important to them gives them the confidence to realize that they don't need to keep searching for answers, they need to start listening for them within.
The result is a connection with my clients that lasts beyond our scheduled sessions. A trust that I have nothing but their best interest in mind and a belief instilled in them that they too can achieve a life as their "whole-self".
