Some things have been coming to the surface for me the past few days.  Looking through social media and seeing all the terrible things happening all over the world, and in my country (America) it can be suffocating.  I often find myself feeling like I cannot make a difference.  Like nothing I do will help make things better.  I find myself feeling guilty that I cannot financially donate right now. 

In these moments I find I can either focus on and digest all the negative…. or I can speak to myself gently and remind myself that ripples make waves and waves can change everything.

It is easy to get sucked into the mindset that you cannot change anything, and the world will forever suck.  That is not true and is no place to live.  Even though I am just one person; I can make a difference in this world.  I get to serve women as a life coach.  To help them love themselves and take that love and put it into the world. 

Even helping one person, helps create change.  Perhaps it isn’t the huge changes we all so desperately desire that are most important.  If we all just helped make a difference for one human being imagine the possibilities.

These are the things we must remember when we start to get sucked into the mindset that the world is terrible.  The world is actually pretty damn amazing, terrible things just happen here.  We need to remind ourselves that even though we cannot help all the people we would love to help right now, if we stay focused and continue walking our path, we will be able to do those things one day soon.

We must remember we are on our own path and that will eventually lead to the things we desire in this world.  One of those things for me is creating a world that is better.  A place where human beings care about one another.  A place where women and children are not being tear gassed at the American boarder. 

It can be so difficult to read and see all the awful things happening.  We must remember that one small act can help create changes in larger ways.

Instead of feeling helpless and hopeless take a moment to focus on what you are working towards.  The small ways we can make a difference in the world.  I like to visual the women I will get to serve and the ways they will change the world around them.  Each drop of love we send out into the Universe gets multiplied.  When we continue coming from a place of love, that love grows. 

So, take a big huge breath and move forward with love and light.  Send that into the Universe and continue making the small changes that you can.  You matter and so does every small act of love you can make.

I spent many years of my life feeling lost. Working jobs that I hated because I believed I need them.  I was depressed, miserable, and full of anger.  I stuck with it because I thought working hard would get me a promotion and I would one day reach a point where I was happy with life.  This was not the case.

In 2016 I moved back to Colorado with my husband and started the application game.  Two-hundred applications later I still hadn’t found a job.  It was in this moment that I started to really think about what I wanted from my life and decided to start my blog.

I wasn’t sure where I wanted to go with my blog, but I knew I had a message I needed to share.  I had spent time doing the work to learn and love myself.  I spent time stretching my confidence muscles and growing in bravery every day.  I leaned into my discomfort and started working to overcome my limiting beliefs. 

I began looking into getting my life coaching certification around this time.  It was something I was really called to but kept coming up with reasons I couldn’t.  Holding myself back has been a staple of my life.  I spent so many years listening to my fear that I started to believe everything it said to me.

It wasn’t until June of this year (2018) that I finally told my fear to be quiet and figured out a way to make it work. 
I truly believe that becoming a life coach chose me.  It is something I have a calling to do.  I realized that I want all women to truly love themselves, to find their confidence and take back their power.  I knew my blog was touching lives, but I wanted to do something that inspired and touched lives on a deeper level. 

I have this burning desire to help women create the foundations to live the life they dream.  To stop holding themselves back because of fear.  To acknowledge and accept that self-love is necessary and that they are worthy of all that they desire.

I cannot wait to serve my clients and am so thankful that this path found me or that I found it (the universe works in amazing ways).
