In the Spring of 2017, I had finished my training as a Whole Health Educator & Whole Health Coach. I was still working as a Nurse in a job that was sucking my soul. I was at my job but my heart was dreaming of helping people holistically. I had recovered from my strange medical problems, POTS syndrome, and chronic daily migraines by implementing my own extremely strict regime that was almost impossible to follow. I was eating a whole foods diet plus avoiding all my food triggers and taking herbs & supplements. However, I would eat tacos and ice cream to soothe my anxiety or when I was stressed. I was not one hundred percent but I was functioning in life again.
I realized once again that my head and heart were out of alignment and my body was telling me through weight gain and feelings of anxiety. I was no longer feeling congruent about treating disease as a Nurse, I wanted to create health. I was tired of working twelve hour shifts doing unfulfilling work. I was desperate to find a way. I connected with my coach Donni through Facebook and asked her for her help on creating my own coaching business. She had been helping people be healthy in physical, emotional, and financial health for eight years and having success.
She introduced me to a physician-led holistic coaching program. I became a client first because I wanted to experience everything my clients would experience. As I went through the program I realized that I was becoming healthier. I was dropping excess weight, my anxious feelings were going away, and I was feeling better than I had in years. The brain fog and lack of clarity was lifting and I was feeling more connected spiritually. I was realizing that I was making health too hard and it really could be simple and enjoyable to practice healthy habits. I was experiencing health on a level I did not believe was possible for me. I was learning how to be the creative force in my own life. I fell in love with the healthy community and found support for myself in a way I did not know I needed. As I began to transform right before everyone's eyes, my friends and family wanted to join me in creating their own health & wholeness.
This was the beginning of my coaching practice. My first client was my best friend. As I began helping more and more people, my emotional health started to improve. My head and heart came back into alignment. As I experienced so much love and support from my own coach and community I started to become more bold in sharing what I had found with others. As I helped more people, my finances became healthier and I was living from abundance instead of lack. This also decreased my stress levels and anxious feelings. I was embracing wholeness.
I eventually left my Nursing career altogether because it was a major source of stress in my life. I began to let go of everything that was not serving my purpose and God-sized dreams. As I let go of the old and let in the new I made room to help others build their own coaching business. I now lead my clients into wholeness in every area of their life from physical, emotional, relational, and financial health.
When I start working with a client I want to understand what is out of alignment in their life and how they can create a whole-soul life. A life designed around what matters most to them. I help them to “paint a picture” of their "wellthiest" life (physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing). I have found that when your head and heart disagree, your body tells on you through illness, weight gain, relational problems, low energy, or feelings of depression or anxiety. The body never lies. It is my job as your coach to help you identify the areas of your life that are out of alignment and help you bridge that gap by changing small habits over time. There is no magic solution and it does take willingness to do the work but creating your God-sized dreams is possible.
When we connect on a call to see if working together would be a good fit, we will explore your goals, your challenges, and really dive into the areas of life that might be out of alignment for you. It is really important to understand the story of you. We will explore how to bridge the gap between the life you are living and the whole-soul life you want to live.
You will decide one of two things. You are not quite ready to make those changes or you will be all in, ready to get to work making your life your masterpiece. When we partner together. There will be an investment of time, energy, and money to get what you want but you will have me in your back pocket and an entire community of people believing with you as you learn to become the creative force in your life.
