Why I stepped away and came back

Recently, I learned that it takes five years for a life coach to get on their feet. After less than a year, I was putting ridiculous amounts of pressure on myself.

Besides that, there is no consortium on how to become a life coach. You can choose whatever path- and many people chose not to get any kind of certification. I chose a compromise to that path and have an eclectic education that was hand-picked for me by me. I am grateful there is no ONE central governing body because that has not served psychology or medicine well. I also know I am meticulous in my own research and finding worthy sources, sound and not biased. Correct information is much more important to me than my ego.

My own personal journey for the last year and a half has been dealing with my mother wound and attachment style. There have been times that I needed all my extra energy to do my healing work. And if I am going to be effective, I have to take growth seriously on a personal level.

The other thing that has caused me to step away is that I have taken a job position that took most of my energy and brain capacity as summer is our busy season. I had no idea that I had to learn how to pace myself and I couldn't just maintain what I had started.

I am going to be teaching a local family nutrition class and that is highly exciting to me! And I am in coach's training for Positive Intelligence®. I'd say my progress is tremendous.

If only I could go into more detail about how I have changed and grown this past year! Perhaps I will do a video and link it here so you can hear about it!

I will add one more post here on my blog which is a graphic I put together. Keep in mind, rebranding amongst everything else is another whole thing. I hope you like the new Soul Light Studio!!!

Much love and happy growing! Celebrate yourself every single day!!!
