an evolving understanding of who i am and what i do for others.
/i began coaching years ago. i made a real go of it. business cards. intake forms. branded worksheets. expensive software and platforms. fancy business retreats, a famous client, and mastermind coaching circles. it didn’t stick. i was miserable. i was lying. i was completely faking it. i was walking through all the motions of health coaching, of having an online business. in 2018 in front of dear internet made friends i cried my eyes out in the desert. i screamed into the night how much i hated coaching. i broke open and admitted to myself and my colleagues that i was failing.
that trip was transformative in a lot of different ways, the way transformation usually shows up, confusing and surreal. sort of like the snowstorm and rainbows that punctuated that trip. those women will forever be in my soul for witnessing each other and allowing room for all of us. it was truly magic. thank you amy for dreaming it into reality. more on that later.
on that trip i decided to shut down my coaching practice. it was a strong message that i had been ignoring for a long while. if you know me you know i believe magic loves a void. those are sacred words. when i live by them my life is full of fantastic love and joy. once i let go of my coaching practice, once i admitted to myself that i didn’t want to talk about food with people anymore. there was room for something else. because love found me on the full moon in the desert that winter. it has been gestating as many dreams and manifestations for over three years now.
