How I came through the ‘ring of fire’ and found my tribe… and YOU can too!

Got Dreams?

 

You have dreams right?

I’m sure you have goals for the near future and the far future. We all do.

And I hope you are making progress on these goals- that you are getting healthier, feeling fitter, are fulfilled in your career, that you are making good money at your job or business, have a great partner and are surrounded by a loving family – I want all these good things for you!

We are ALL deserving of these good things!

But I also know the reality.

How sometimes our dreams are NOT materializing, how we don’t feel like we are living the life we really want to be living, how we are not the vision of ourselves we want to be, and how this can make us feel bewildered and stuck.

It is when we are ‘spinning our wheels’ that we need a higher level of support, but the reality is most people don’t get it.

Sure if we are in crisis mode or are feeling blue we might pick up the phone and call our Mom or a close relative, or maybe we will mention something to a friend over coffee and our needs might get temporarily met but often that just doesn’t do it.

 

Life Moves Fast

 

People are busy right?

They have their own issues, their own families, their own worries and we don’t want to monopolize their time. I get it. I have been there.

That is what nudged me towards being a coach, because after my son’s diagnosis of Fragile X (and later autism) my wonderful family and friends could not truly meet my needs, no matter how hard they tried.

I needed to speak with people who had truly experienced what I had, that knew of the grief that comes with getting a life long diagnosis for a child you dreamed would have a ‘typical’ life.

That is how I found Martha Beck.

Life coach to Oprah and Maria Shriver and the coach (who along with her master coaches) ‘trained me up’ in this coaching field so to speak.

Martha got it -as she has a son with Down’s Syndrome. But she gets other things too because she has lived quite an interesting life (and continues to do so!). To find out more you will have to go read her books- highly recommended!

I can tell you this though about her though – she knows what it is like to go through the ‘ring of fire’ and come out the other side, and now I do too.

Maybe you have experienced the fire too and have lived to tell the tale?

Or possibly you are circling around the outside of the fire pit, stuck in a pre-contemplative loop but you know, your soul knows that you are going to have to ‘burn baby burn’ to create the life you desire.

 

So are you ready?

 

 

What I Know For Sure

 

What I know for sure is that six or so years ago when my life was burning down to the ground I needed to go deeper- I needed time, I needed consistency and I needed REAL support. Like get into my brain and create new thought pathways kind of support. (Not as scary as it sounds-promise!)

And I found it.

I found my tribe!

Training as a coach helped me coach myself through my sadness, through those whirlwind years of being a mom of small children when you are really only existing in ‘survival mode’…

….and through Martha’s life coach school I met women (and a few men too) who coached me and helped me – and it was wonderful! (for free! as part of the training!)

As kind and supportive as my family and friends were / are they could not offer the level of support that I needed at that time in my life and so for awhile, until I found my tribe, I really felt alone.
