So let's take a look. In a nutshell, my journey looks like this.....

From age 9, I was bullied at school. I was the quiet one, the different one and felt like the not good enough one. At 11 my father died after a two-year illness, and of course I couldn't save him, so in my mind I become the useless one.  By 15, I was in the throws of a five-year spell of a potentially life-threatening eating disorder- Bulimia Nervosa,  but got over it, alone, by somehow mustering up some inner strength and will power.  I wandered through my working life for years, mainly in the Performing Arts world, then catering and event management, then teaching and training.  People used to asked me, " what do you do?" and I'd say, " a bit of this and a bit of that". I was partially satisfied with the Arts because I loved dance and dance had been like an unconscious therapy for me, and so, even as a professional and semi-professional performer I did get some relief, and create some joy for many audiences, but I was still not fulfilled.  On the relationship front I hopped from boyfriends to flings, still searching for something more meaningful, that could at least last and give me some hope of longevity, therefore worth investing in. However, that was to no avail. I put alot of men on pedestals and admired them, but of course that again was a way to avoid, not fully acknowledge whatever was going inside me. I read books on personal growth, mysticism, spirituality and psychology.  Still nothing. I knew something was missing. Deep down I knew there was more to life and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Until.. 

Boom, one day, I discovered the meaning and the rules to the game of Life. I found my spiritual path. A dear friend invited me to a lecture and believe it or not, I had touched upon the subject when I saw a book at 17 years of age  and I remember saying to myself at that time  "Not now, one day". But what was I waiting for? At 39, I finally  began to discover through the universal wisdom of kabbalah's ancient wisdom, how to listen to and live by my unique soul's desires, not according to the external  influences in my environment - family, friends, communities, media.  Also, it was not until I finally found my professional calling as a Teacher and Healer that I was truly happy within, professionally.  The more I taught, the more confident I felt. Finally, I was starting to understand where my power truly lay, how I could access it, create a road-map towards my newly discovered self and expressed goals. I knew  that I had touched upon them at various points on my life, but that was all - I had only touched them, caught a glimpse of them but never manifested them. I had a number of dreams over the years of me being immersed in water. It seems my physical body needed a spiritual cleansing so that my soul could shine.  Me, my true me, my soul needed a coach and mentor to show me how. And, when I got one, I will never forget those words she said to me that day in Starbucks " Your soul wants to get to Scotland fast, but you are in the wrong gear". I knew deep in my heart and soul what she meant.

I knew I loved teaching, sharing, helping but was it my calling? I became obsessed with the soul's journey and so I qualified as a Past-life Regression therapist to clear old, blocking patterns. I realized our thinking and behaviors  were the keys to change and so also qualified as a Cognitive Behavioral  Hypnotherapist. I mentored and coached adults, teenagers and kids on self-esteem & resilience programs, finally getting to this point of helping professional women  living the lives that they love. I knew that the only way to help anyone, was to help them understand themselves.

And, finally fast forward a few years of growth, at 51 years of age, I got married, for the first time I might add, to my soulmate. That was five years ago. -  If that is what you truly desire, I know its possible for you too and you don't have to wait as long as I did! I also came back to teaching, coaching, healing full-time, 15 years ago and know without  shadow of a doubt, this is my true "work" destiny  in life.
