My journey from being stuck in life, lacking clarity and true purpose to leading a fulfilling, purpose filled and self directed life that I love.

About 8 years ago I found myself in a place where I felt stuck, I didn't feel like I had really achieved anything real in my life, that I wasn't as far along as I wanted or felt I should be in life. I didn't have a real passion or purpose, I was in a career that didn't fulfill me and this left me feeling empty and worried about what I was going to do with my future.

I found myself in what felt like groundhog day, taking the same packed train everyday to the same office, sitting at the same desk analysing the same numbers, not making any real impact, lacking the inspiration and joy that I should have been feeling at that stage in my life.

I felt like I was a cog in a wheel, with no real purpose and no real opportunity to truly express myself in an impactful way, I was just stuck a rut that I couldn't get out of and I didn't even know what it was that I really wanted on the other side of it. I felt that it was too late in the game to change my life completely, even if I did know what it was that I wanted to do instead. I had been working in retail planning for 15 years, I had responsibilities and relationships that I just didn't feel like I could get out of.

I looked at other people and thought they were living life more, they were enjoying more, they were more successful, more driven, more loved. I really thought I'd be more, would have done more, had more of an impact in some way however small by that stage.

At that point, I happened to go to a life changing festival in the Nevada desert, and what I saw and experienced there blew my mind - things would never be the same after that. The levels of creativity, joy, love and connection I experienced there, ignited something in me, I saw how life could be and that I could be a part of it, if I so chose.

I came back from that, high on life, straight into a crazy week at work. This meant multiple meetings with the very difficult head of department I worked for. In the meetings we had that week - she was especially critical and judgemental of me and my work, despite me actually being good at my job. Because I'd reached this crossroads in my life and had experienced what I had in the US, I took it as my sign, the catalyst I needed to make a big change - and I came in the following day and resigned from my role, and essentially, my career. It was the scariest but most liberating thing I have ever done.

This led me on a 3 year quest to find my passion and purpose in the world - it wasn't always easy, but I persevered. I completed a series of Creative Development and coaching courses, I got myself a coach and completed an internationally accredited course in transformative coaching. By going through this journey of self discovery, I found out who I really was, gained the clarity I desperately wanted and finally knew the direction I wanted my life to go in.

Once I was aligned with my soul purpose it became very clear that I wanted to serve others in getting unstuck, empowering them to step into the highest version of themselves, creating exactly what they wanted in their lives despite any circumstances or responsibilities that had previously held them back.

Today, I wake up excited for the day, I have clients and students I love serving. I love seeing how their lives are transforming and how much higher their levels of happiness and satisfaction are. I live and work on my terms, I have a thriving career, am a dedicated parent to my toddler, a wife and homemaker and still have time to myself which, to me, is the definition of leading an abundant life.
