My own coaching journey began during my perimenopausal years. I knew things needed to change, I knew I was holding myself back and I felt I needed more than simply talking things through. Coaching helped me work through multiple limiting beliefs and begin working on my mindset, self-esteem, childhood blueprint, goals and confidence.
Do you know one of the first things that happened, just after session two? I booked a pole-dancing lesson!
I had wanted to try it for years, but my old body-image worries and insecurities always stepped in. I would have to wear shorts, after all, and I couldnāt possibly subject anyone to that sight ā even in a one-to-one lesson.
The new me realised this was utterly ridiculous. I walked confidently into a group session in my hastily purchased shorts, completed the lesson and returned again!
It demonstrated to me how quickly life can begin to change when you stop letting old beliefs make your decisions. Those coaching sessions mean that nowadays I rarely have limiting beliefs but, as and when one rears its head, I still have all the tools Iāve learned to smash through it and keep moving forward.
After years of helping women through physical and emotional challenges as an acupuncturist, becoming a coach felt like a natural progression. Iām a certified Unbreakable MindsetĀ® Coach, trained in the methodology founded by transformational coach Jude Daunt, and I now combine that powerful mindset work with warm, practical and down-to-earth 1:1 coaching.
After spending the past three decades supporting women through some of lifeās biggest challenges, Iāve learned that lasting change doesnāt come from trying harder ā it comes from thinking differently. When you change the stories youāve been telling yourself, everything else begins to change too.
