About before

First, we lead ourselves to the realization to explore our feelings.

I first noticed that I was always looking at the clock secretly wishing for more time. I noticed that I was snapping at my family and extended family. I noticed that I loved teaching HighSchoolers but was dreading going to work. I noticed I loved being involved in my diverse multicultural community and didn’t have enough time for the committees and events. Overall I was tired, guilty, desperately needing some “me” time. I felt like a hamster on a hamster wheel except I was too guilty to spend time on my own exercise. 

Second, we lead ourselves to education or coaching.

Through my joy of reading and love of education, I came across life coaching as a profession. I was very familiar with sports coaching and educating. The idea of using my natural instincts to help others with their day to day struggles motivated me to get certified and accredited.  

Third, we lead the exploration of where we are at and where we want to be.

I took stock of my many roles: Mom, wife, daughter, aunt, cousin, niece, business owner, entrepreneur,  teacher, coach, community volunteer, community member.

I tracked the time I spent in each of my many roles. There had to be a better way to manage time.

I envisioned my ideal life. I didn’t want to give up any of my roles. I wanted it all!

I had to find a way to do each of these roles in a balanced way.  

Fourth, we lead steps to change. 

Though education, trial & error, and perseverance I have designed a step by step roadmap  that resulted in  more time in my day. It was and is possible!! I will partner with you to teach you the steps, for you to lead yourself to the life you want. Not only will you be happier with the people in your life but most importantly you will love yourself.
