No. Not really. Although making people laugh really does rock....clowns are creepy....but anyway, what was I talking about again?
When I close my eyes and picture my perfect life, I picture gigantic cupcakes with no calories, kids who don't talk back, health and prosperity for my family and friends. But, most of all, I picture doing something that really MATTERS. I spent 10 years connecting with women and making a positive impact on their lives by showing them how exercise could be fun. Showing them that strong girls kick ass.
During that time, I was living in an extremely unhealthy and unhappy marriage. I gained strength from the women in my life. I felt most joyful when I was making other women feel better about their bodies and about their lives. In the end, it was that strength that allowed me to make the best decision of my life: to stop feeling sorry for myself, stop feeling afraid of the unknown, to just close my eyes and jump.
The past 3 years have been the happiest of my life. The most difficult, but the happiest.
And that is why I have decided to become a Life Coach. I want to empower women to dig deep and find their joy. That might mean finding a new career, leaving an abusive relationship, getting in shape, quitting their job and traveling the world. Every woman is unique and every woman deserves to find their true path.
I am super duper excited to get started on my new journey!! I will begin with about 100 hours of study and one-on-one training with other certified Life Coaches. In order to get my certification, I will be required to pass two exams and log a certain number of face-to-face coaching hours. BRING. IT. ON.
