on the surface I had it all…
Two beautiful, wild & spirited children. a supportive, empathetic & charismatic husband who is also the most wonderful parent. a spacious, modern three story town house with brand new car on the drive.
Family always has been the heart centre of the world.
Many years prior, when my son was born I found I had the motivation & the courage to escape the cold & unfulfilling corporate rat race. I was seeking more flexibility & freedom from my career.
I found it in my very own business…
I had achieved a life time ambition. Something I’d aspired to for as long as I could remember. But I couldn’t quite put my finger on what didn’t feel right. Something wasn’t aligned. I could sense it.
My business continued to grow and so did I…
I recruited my husband & together we improved, refined & scaled our online business. We birthed unique franchise model, the only of it’s kind in the UK. We attracted incredible clients & even more incredible people who saw our vision & wanted to join our adventure.
We hit six figures in revenue but I didn’t stop there…
I wrote two books, I mentored others, I won awards, I delivered talks, I went on the radio & TV. I was even interviewed for an article for Huffington Post! I was living the dream. I embodied something so many people aspire to have – both the time & resources to nurture my family.
But when I stepped away to have my second baby, I realised that I allowed my business to make me feel pretty miserable. When I dug deeper, I started to understand that it wasn’t about the success on the surface… it was about how I felt at my core.
On paper I had it all but I wasn’t aligned & it didn’t feel good…
I had sacrificed. I poured every fibre of my being into my business. I’d hit burnout multiple times. I doubted myself constantly. I continued to under value myself & I seemed fixated on pushing myself way too hard in an attempt to be, do & have more. I was crushed by others opinions & I lay awake at night ruminating over all the devastating ways I could lose everything.
Soon after I started studying & training to become a coach, I realised SO SO SO MANY THINGS! Most significantly, I’d lost the connection with myself, my intuition, I didn’t know my purpose. But I did know that in forever serving others, I was neglecting myself more & more.
That’s when I started to take baby steps towards coming back home to myself.
I got to work on deepening the relationship with me. I turned inward to focus my energy on self nurturing so that I could lean into the next season of my life with confidence, trust, grit & grace.
That’s when started to redefine my relationship with the seemingly successful six figure business….
I took steps to run my business baby, so that it no longer ran me! I did the work. I recognised that I was immensely privileged to have the support of so many brilliant people who embody it’s purpose with great passion. I had to learn to let go and watch it grow. It was a very bittersweet realisation.
On that day, I opened up my laptop & started typing what you’re reading now.
Today, my purpose is to hold space for you so you can find & realign to your purpose. To support you whilst you get clear on what feels good for you. To empower you with thinking space so that you can consciously chose where to invest your precious energy, time & focus. To envoke your awareness so that you can safely & confidently explore the areas of your being & business that aren’t quite aligned.
So that you can go about running your beautiful & much needed business, instead of it running you!
it’s really not about me…
