Who am I?
Two years ago, I was working from home with my child in preschool.
You don’t know until your child is in school how many holidays, in-service days, and sick days come with the switch.
Learning to work with interruptions became a necessity very quickly, but I started to feel constantly on-edge, frazzled, always behind, and never like I was getting enough done.
I struggled when I was not working, thinking about things that needed to get done and answering work calls and emails.
And I struggled when I was working because I was so tired that I never felt like I was at my best, and so many days I had a little “helper” who needed me what felt like every five minutes.
I wasn’t sticking to any sort of workout routine long-term or taking great care of my own health (and I was judging myself for that on top of everything else), but trying to squeeze in regular workouts when I’m barely taking care of the family and work I already have to do? Fat chance.
I felt like something must be wrong with me that I couldn’t show up the way I was used to at work, I wasn’t living up to my expectations of myself as a mom, and I was building a grudge against all the things that I felt were in my way – my health, my partner, my job, and sometimes even my son’s interruptions.
I felt confident that I knew what I should be doing, but somehow always fell short of my expectations. Reading self-help books would just add to the mental list of things I should be doing. A gratitude practice made me feel even worse – I have a million things to be grateful for – so why am I struggling and unhappy?
Can you relate?
But then I found coaching, and it gave me the tools I needed to actually alter the course I was on.
I started feeling in control of my life for the first time – maybe ever.
I had been trying to solve all my problems from the outside – a different workout program, a different calendar system, believing my husband needed to change his communication style – the list of things I tried was very long, and fruitless until I added mindset work.
Adding mindset work to the other tools I had studied has felt like gaining a superpower. The final puzzle piece that enabled all the others to come together.
Coaching empowers you
to create the changes you want
from the inside out.
