As many of you know I made a conscious decision to take a leap of faith and move forward with one of my dreams to become a life coach. I created this blog as a way to share my insights and build a readership with the intention that it would soon turn into my website for my coaching business. Little did I know it would happen sooner rather than later.
At the end of April I made the announcement that instead of continuing to wait for pieces to fall into place I was following my inspiration to create my own coaching model. Within a week of my flying leap post, I had my model outline and I was overflowing with ideas and inspiration for what I wanted my business to become. About a week later an amazing thing happened, I had secured a guinea pig client to work with using my model!
For the last two months I have been working with Erin McNaughton aka my guinea pig client and I couldn’t be more thrilled to have the opportunity to work with such an amazing writer and story-teller. It seems as if the stars aligned perfectly for Erin and I to work together just a few short weeks after I decided to create my own model. As I said before my inspiration was overflowing and I was allowing it to take me wherever I needed to go in order to fulfill my dreams. While not worrying about how I was going to find clients or how I would be able to test my model, I read this post, one of many beautiful pieces Erin shares on her blog. I shared my thoughts in the comments section and offered my assistance for what it was worth and as they say, the rest is history.
In the time we have been working together, I have seen a transformation in a woman who once dreamt of becoming a writer and now proudly announces that she IS a writer. She has made some incredible strides in her journey as she follows her inspiration including having her latest post listed on The Art of Non-Conformity website for her description of the World Domination Summit 2013 and “Portland as a mecca for superheroes.”
I am so grateful for the opportunity to connect and coach such a talented woman and am honored to be able to witness the journey of one dreamer living the life she once dreamt.
Tomorrow I will be sharing how Erin feels about working with me for those of you thinking of hiring a coach to move you forward on your path. I hope you will check out her website at www.analyfe.com. I promise you won’t be disappointed!
Lamisha, let me first say how proud I am of you for taking that leap of faith–that’s no small feat. I am especially grateful because your leap of faith involved reaching out to me and helping me realize my own big dreams. With heartfelt sincerity: thank you, thank you, thank you! You are such a joy to work with. 🙂
I feel the same way about working with you. This is a perfect example of how following your inspiration lines you up with exactly the right people and I am so glad I took the leap when I did. 🙂
