Testimonials

I’ve realized that my life was out of control, hence the feeling  “that I’m outside my body and had no interest in my body”. Even though I have a qualification in Social Science, I had a complete inability to identify the “real” issues causing my emotional exhaustion. By the Grace of God, I had the courage to not only realize it, but actually INTENTIONALLY seek help. My enrolment with a Life coach was not something I’ve considered in the past, but it turned out to be the BEST decision I’ve ever made😊 

Although our first session was initially filled with hopelessness and a whole lot of negative emotions, which I didn’t understand, I soon became aware of the numerous inter-twined issues that caused all these confusions and hopelessness. It’s so sad, that an individual needs to reach rock bottom first to realize, irrespective of you are, that everyone needs someone, sometime in your life, to help you to unpack the various boxes of your life. We need to intentionally go through every aspect, remember the initial meaning, re-evaluate it in your future context and make a deliberate decision about the action you going to take, weather you’re going to “disregard, un-dust and polish or treasure it as a special pearl”.  The saddest part is, life happens to all, male and female, the rich the poor, the professional individuals and the un-employed. Unfortunately, we only reach the point of actively taking charge of our life once the physical effects of mid-life, starting to crack the walls of our busy life and force us to take action. 

My life coach was an absolute Blessing. She gently steered through my hopelessness, identifying the impact of my Physical (Menopause), Emotional (mental health) and Spiritual (lack of self-worth in a World where I’ve be born into, with a very specific purpose) states on my perception of my Life. It not only helped to identify, but also encourage me to actively make adjustments to fix this mess I was in, not only to Physically feel better, but to have a new perspective of who I really am and why I’m still around to my friends and to my family and thus have a renewed purpose after mid-life happened…

I subsequently, have scheduled and appointment with my General Practitioner and received prescribed supplements to address my hormonal imbalance, which caused my mental health to be negatively affecting my life .

Note: I choose to avoid the “D” word, realizing now that acknowledging “its” power, is going one step backwards!!!

I now deliberately go for a daily walk, if not to exercise – to deliberately spent time with myself!!

I feed myself affirmations of my value, my looks, my dressing capabilities, etc….I’m now mindful of my thoughts and how I create my realities, through my thoughts and words….

I went to the hairdresser and although we’ve only shortened my style, I’ve invested in a Protein treatment, which left my hair with the nourishment it so desperately needed and receive daily the most amazing compliments, not only the style, but the health and colour (and I always thought the colour was a curse, not being able to change it successfully!!!)

I attended a show with like-minded people and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. Something I haven’t done in years! Guess what??? I’ve already booked the next show!!!

Now, who would believe that my young adult child, would actual envy me, my life, and commenting on my joyful attitude towards life, my kind heart which attract wonderful friends, and the youthful attitude to go to theatre shows, looking different and actually calling me “Cool”😊😊😊

My husband has noticed the change and comment on my regular laughter and joy that he sees in me.

Although this is an ongoing, intent ally awareness process of how, I think, feel, and talk to myself, I am now equipped and feel empowered to navigate through this part of my life and actually enjoy it.

How can I ever thank my Life coach enough?

I can Love her for ever and pray for every Blessing to rain down on her beautiful Soul
