Hey, Coach!

A coach comes in many forms. Fitness coach, Personal Coach, Health & Wellness Coach, and Life Coach. I am the latter. I am a life coach and although it is a broad term, my main focus is to help others achieve their life goals, by overcoming their limiting beliefs, attachments, and negative self-talk that sometimes, gets in the way of our goals.

For me, it started just helping people, mostly friends and family, change their mindsets, but it turned into something greater. I found that I have a gift in listening and using my words for change. It was very powerful to learn that I inspire people by my words AND actions. Never in a million years would I have thought that life coaching was a career choice. But, it is the perfect one for me.

Before stepping into life coaching, I worked as a makeup artist because I was good at it. I am creative, empathetic, and transformed people for a moment, where they felt amazing. It is such a good feeling every time to have a client in my chair who appreciated my work, but I still felt like I could do more. And when I silenced my mind and trusted my heart, it kept saying life coach.

Honestly, it wasn’t a choice. It was a calling. I had been nudged to serve others and something that I grappled with for years. How can I serve others? I love doing makeup, why now? Am I making the right choice? Can I be good at this? And once, I surrendered the fear and doubt, I recognized that I was called to do this. I trusted my intuition that I ignored for so long because doubt became a cloak that I wore daily.

The best part about being a life coach is that I am confident in what I do. I am confident in who I am. Moreover, I like who I have become. I am witty, funny, smart, and confident, but also someone who inspires others to go outside their comfort zones because I have been there.

Makeup has been amazing to me and I continue to do it to this day (and will), but serving my purpose as a Life Coach is a gift that I get to share with the world daily and that, brings me the greatest joy of all.

With love,
