Year 2010 will be always considered a breakthrough year for me. The situations and the events of that year made me think that it was the worse year in life however looking back, I realize that 2010 turned to be the greatest year at making new decisions and embracing positive changes. Sometimes it takes you to reach your rock bottom and to get so confused and lost to decide to re-create yourself. As Tony Robins says “In life you need either desperation or inspiration for any change to happen”.
I was searching for more from life and my true self was screaming for a change nagging away at my thoughts until I begun to listen to that inner voice we call intuition. I looked inwardly and I recognized that it was time to be more so I took a chance and re-created my path. I started to break away from my comfort zone and I found there was so much I can offer and more to life. I chose to be a woman with purpose and decided to turn my vocation into a vacation, I am a people person and find immense satisfaction in helping and serving others and through coaching I found meaning to my life and was able to live my passion and it was all anchored when Emerge was born.
Hurdles and challenges are part of any business journey. Some had logical consequences and I was able to overcome them by taking a different action. However, I found that the most challenging aspect was overcoming self-doubt. In moments of doubts, I felt less confident in my capability to run and operate a business, be the coach I strive to be.. many times I started to question my decision to fulfill and own my vision. I even remember few times thinking to give it all up and look for different secure options! However, a strong desire, faith, persistence helped me to remain focused on the vision, acknowledged that this is part of any successful journey and decided not to let my fears stop me and my drive to achieve. when I adopted the attitude of gratitude that supported me to put everything in perspective. I traded my negative self-talk for positive affirmations that filled my mind with positive thoughts and ideas.
Everything related to my work is a proud moment for me, every time I complete a children workshop, a parenting program or a private coaching session, is an affirmation that I love what I do and I am grateful to do what I love and this is how I feel I am succeeding in each step I am taking.
“Emerge” Journey is just as its beginning as I am continuously progressing towards my vision. In just one year, “Emerge” managed to focus and serve the whole family as a unit and now offers one on one individual coaching as well as tailored coaching programs and workshops for children teens and parents.
If I could give you an advice, it would be to follow your dream. If you love what you do you will succeed. We are all gifted and unique. Find your gift, share it with the world and make it shine.
Thank you for being there as a dear colleague, a friend or a client. I am so grateful to each one of you, for your support and belief. Happy to share with you and looking forward for a continuous development of our relationship.
Love and gratitude
Linda
