So for a little while now I have been getting to know this beautiful girl. She was a natural born leader, a generous caring soul, who gave her all. She always looked out for others and loved achieving, and this she did.
She went to a great junior school, where everyone in the class was a team, there were no cliques, no bitching, yes we may have had our close friends, but we were just a merry little band that tootled along. We had respect from the teachers and we had respect for each other. We were happy. This girl had plans….
This girl was me….
I say was, because I lost track of her soon after leaving there. I remember in my early thirties someone asking me when I was last truly happy, it hit me when I said back when I was at Junior School….
We WERE happy. Amongst other things, I was the Eagles House Captain and loved leading them to victory in the House Point Competition. Personally, I may not have won everything I went for, but I know I put my heart in to it, 100%, and that was enough of an achievement for me.
Senior School changed things. I went from a big fish in a little happy pond to a little insecure fish in a big pond, leaving its mark on relationships and jobs after, coupled with the shoulda coulda wouldas of Society, and what is ‘expected’ of us…
Do I regret anything, not one thing, and this is certainly not a blame game. When Mum sent this picture and others over from the UK, it brought tears to my eyes. Am so frigging proud of what this girl has been through, created and experienced.
So why am I taking time to get to know this girl again now, to reflect on what her wishes and dreams were? Because I have been through some big transitions since coming away travelling, and just recently I redid my values. For the first time of doing my values, achievement actually came out as one of the top, and that got me thinking….. When before was this a focus for me….? When before, did I have my socks pulled up (literally) and make things happen, when was achieving a priority for me? Yes the me that was happy twenty five years ago…
I won’t be telling you anything new when I say we have the answers within us. Somewhere inside you is the girl or boy that had dreams, had plans, was their own person…. Sometimes we just need help digging deep and finding that younger self again, reconnecting with who we truly, truly are. Peeling away the layers and finding our true essence, our worth, our absolute being, because we DO have the answers, that mini me knew exactly what was important for me, and where I should be heading, and I am so excited to be aligned with my truest values and be back on track.
Are you truly showing up as the best version of you, do you really feel alive and that you are truly getting your message out there to the world?
Where has that flame gone, that burning passion? Do you need help getting that spark back in your life and your business? Or maybe it is there, simmering, ready to go and you just need help bringing it in to real life?
I would love to help you reconnect with your core, your dreams and aspirations, to help them and you shine bright. I can help you find and release that inner potential. Together we can get you on track and showing up to the world. How do I know this? Because I have been there and I can walk the journey with you.
Please get in touch today, don’t leave it any longer….
