In 2014, I repatriated back to Canada, I was full of passion and fire for how I was going to share my gifts in the world!

Then things happened.

Big things, family things, health things and other things—none of which were part of what I envisioned my life would look like, let alone my dream of a successful coaching business.

Life events on the personal side both took and required all of me.

And the dreams I had for myself, were disposable in comparison.

I began to notice that after a life event, I would turn to learning a new modality or new thing—in order to make up for lost time—so I could launch (yet again), but with a new twist.

In 2017, I started to make the connection that my emotions from my personal life experiences were entangled with my dream.

Then lost sight of that, when the next situation took my attention and focus.

[Big Sigh]

Here I am today…

Because the relationship with me + my business is important, to ME.

I may not have had the capacity to believe that 100% over the last decade, and I’m okay with that—now.

I felt the feelings that needed feeling.

Then, I did the work that needed doing.

Then did it all again. Because like any relationship, not everything can be handled as a one and done. So I’m prepared to do it all again when it needs doing.

And so I did.

We [me + my business] are working on reconciliation, divorce is no longer on the table.

And, now I want to write about it and share it with you.
