So, this is what my life looked like not so far back in the past…
I had a brand new baby, I was taking both girls to Play Centre, I was taking on responsibilities there, I was trying to be the perfect mum – attachment parenting, breastfeeding, healthy food, seeing the Naturopath, trying to never lose my temper, putting far too much pressure and too many expectations on myself. I was trying to get Essential Mum off the ground and running, whilst working out a sales contract I held onto because we were pressured by the weight of financial stress that was so heavy I felt sick to the pit of my stomach. Many weeks we just didn’t know how we would be able to pay our bills and the mortgage. I felt obligated in so many different directions that I didn’t know which way was up. I was stressed, I was exhausted, and by rushing from one task to the next constantly I was missing being in the moments as they happened and losing the true beauty of them. I was disconnected from my new baby girl, my older baby girl and life itself. I was exhausted. And yet I was going over and above for the wonderful crowd of women I had attracted with Essential Mum because these women inspired me and motivated me daily. I wanted desperately to help them more than what I was doing already. That was when I decided to train to become a life coach. And that was when my life changed.
And now I have come full circle. What I mean by that is that it’s now time to share on what was so powerful for me. Because I see you; hiding behind a smile that disguises how unfulfilled you feel. I know that your “together” shell hides how inside you’re falling apart. Your silence tells me everything it needs to. I hear you because I was where you are and I want to help you.
In September I am launching my Design Your Life Coaching Programme for 6 inspired and open mums. The steps I will take you through across 8 weeks are exactly those that I took myself to get out of the overwhelm and focus on me and what I needed for my health and happiness. I will help you strike a balance between what you love to do and your obligations, so you’re not over-committed and exhausted. I will help you design a life that brings you happiness, every day.
I still have days where I fall apart, but what helps me come back together again is knowing the steps to get myself back into balance. If you are interested in receiving some no obligation information about my Design Your Life Programme, fill out the contact form here:
