I am a wife of 33 years and a mom of two young adult children. I’ve lived a pretty eclectic life; I have moved nine times with my family and spent many years wrapped up in the wife and mommy identity. I loved being a mom of young ones! Every day I had purpose and I loved how every day brought forth new joys and challenges.
Before I had children I had waited so long to be a mom that when I was blessed with two beautiful children my life felt complete!
As many women experience, once my children moved into their teen years and on to becoming young adults, the role I had cherished and known so well started changing. Not only did my role as a mother change, but so did my role as a wife. I found myself feeling somewhat lost in who I was with little purpose.
I found myself in the same position you might be in, searching and jumping from one new thing to another looking for something to feel passionate about. If you’re like me you might be searching for something that will make an impact on your life and others’ lives. Nearly a decade ago, I knew I desperately needed to alter my health. So I embarked on a journey of weight loss. I set goals and dug deep, just like I now get to do with other women. Through much hard work and personal development, I was able to lose 90 lbs! Through this I also impacted my husband to better his own health. Shortly after I began my weight loss journey, an opportunity presented itself to me and I became an Independent Certified Coach in the arena of better health. This radically changed my life and in the next six years, went on coaching clients to better health and mentoring and training others who wanted to coach in the arena of better health.
I realized that I love working directly with women, both one-on-one and in small groups. I found so many women who were just like I had been, searching for fulfillment, searching for structure, and searching for reinvention.
So many of us have believed that after a certain age there just isn’t much more for us to accomplish. That is just one of the many lies of the world we live in! There is a great big world of opportunity just waiting for us!
While I am still a wife and mom, my roles have shifted. My husband and I have reinvented our marriage, my relationship with my children has grown into something equally as beautiful as when they were little, and I have found a new purpose in working with women. I am so passionate about personal growth both for myself and for you!
