My Transformation

For decades, I viewed life as a series of events to be accomplished in order to “arrive” and then “live a happy life”.

I believed that checking those boxes – college, graduate school, career, marriage, parenting – would lead to happiness. I learned from my family “the ways things are done”. In some ways, this served me well; in others, not so much. It never occurred to me that I could say “no”, that I could do things differently, and that I could make choices based on my likes/dislikes, on my values and strengths, and on my goals and dreams.

But then others helped me see that I could live in alignment with my true self by exploring who I am and why I do what I do and by changing beliefs and behaviors that no longer serve me. The most impactful change to date is my choice to live an alcohol-free life. In the 14 years since, I have become more emotionally intelligent, less reactive, more flexible, less judgmental, and more serene.

My transformation is not limited to the personal; it’s professional as well. An unequivocal desire to help others emerged in recent years and I trained and sought certifications in support of this. My transformation from employee with a routine schedule and reliable resources to a passion-driven “solopreneur” is ongoing. And while the process is uncomfortable at times, a singular certainty drives it: I’m not going back!
