I am the mother of 6 children and have been married for over 20 years now. I was a stay at home mom for 16 years and felt like I had lost my identity as a person. I didn't know who I was beyond being a mother. I couldn't even tell people what I enjoyed doing anymore because I didn't take time for myself. I am so grateful for the time I had at home with my kids but as they all started going to school, I wondered what was next for me. I felt like I was meant to do something more. Even felt like there was another person inside of me wanting to come alive. Someone who was confident and wanted to speak to people, even someone who wanted to stand on stage and be a speaker, but I didn't know how to get to that person. I felt stuck. I began being coached and saw the power in being able to think past what my current circumstances and situations were telling me. I saw the power in being able to work with someone on a regular basis that could help keep me accountable and help keep me from falling back into old thought patterns. I saw myself starting to come alive. I had a great desire to share that opportunity with others so I spent the next year studying and being certified to become a coach. I love seeing the difference it is already making in the peoples lives that I have a chance to work with.
