When I first told my parents I wanted to quit my corporate job they thought I was crazy. I cried because I could no longer hack it. They cried because they thought giving it all up was such a waste.
Our whole lives we are often taught that success equals a “good job” and a “well paid salary” and that we have to go through the motions of Uni, career and climbing that career ladder until we retire.
Then, when something inside us tells us that this isn’t enough, that we want more, we begin to feel lost because we’ve never previously given ourselves permission to ask what that “something more” could be.
This is a tricky place to be in; knowing that what you have isn’t enough but not knowing what on earth to do next.
The mistake many women make is to look outwards for answers, when what they should really be doing is looking inside at what skills, qualities and passions they already possess within themselves.
The coaching industry opened my eyes to the fact that I didn’t need to ‘become’ something to make something of myself, I simply had to tap into what was already there.
That is the beauty of this industry. We aren’t trying to fit into someone else’s mould, we aren’t trying to bend to someone else’s version of success but instead, we carve out our own unique path, tapping into our own beautiful authentic selves.
There aren’t many careers that can do that for you.
What the coaching industry essentially allows you to do is get paid to be authentically you, which is a pretty magical thing.
When women say that “they don’t have enough experience” to be a success as a coach, what they fail to realize is that everything that they have previously gone though has led them to where they are today. The process of becoming a coach is an opportunity to tap into those hidden treasures inside you that you may have not even realized existed.
Since building an incredible career within the coaching industry myself, my biggest passion now lies in helping other women do the same. Witnessing the women I work with get out of their own way and give themselves permission to be who they really are, blossoming into their own best versions of themselves really lights me up.
