What If It Didn’t Work?

Can I just tell you?
I was terrified (frozen)
Seriously, like, crap-my-pants-scared to hire my first coach. I had so many doubts…

What if it didn’t work?
What if I didn’t feel better?
What if I made a huge investment and nothing happened? I wasted all that money?
People will think it’s stupid?
Do I really neeeeed this or am I being dramatic? Am I crazy?

Our brains and nervous systems, armed with programming from collective culture, can be relentless with self-doubt, shaming and fear.
⁠
I had never made an investment like that, but I knew I had to do something and ⁠finally admit to myself that
what I was doing was NOT WORKING.⁠

AND it did NOT mean there was anything wrong with me- it just meant I needed help, insights, support and there was a huge part of me that was ready to make those changes for myself.

Being tired all the time felt like shit.
The stress levels took a toll on my body.
My mental health was declining.
My family needed me, but so did my students, my friends, and everyone else.

I gave and gave until I literally couldn’t anymore.

The problem? I was giving so much to others and NOT much to myself… so much so that I felt like a servant to my schedule…

So I took the leap of faith… as scared as I was… and that investment from 12 years ago continues to multiply… and pays me back in time, energy, and well-being… which has also translated into resources and money too.⁠
⁠
It’s really cool and mind-blowing when I think of it now.⁠

If I could go back and tell my terrified self how WORTH IT it is to invest in her… I’d do it a hundred times and I continue to invest heavily in myself.

YOU are here for this. You absolutely know you deserve to be poured into as much as you pour into others.
⁠
