Yesterday I gave you an update on what I have been doing behind the scenes and today I am going to share with you my very first testimonial!
I asked Erin M. (aka my guinea pig client) if she would be willing to write a 100% honest testimonial based on her experience working with me over the last 2 months and I was blown away by her kind words. I have not made any changes, tweaks, or adjustments to her testimonial and am sharing it as it was delivered to me.
This is what Erin had to say about her experience working with me.
“A few short months ago, I would have described myself as teeming with potential, yet unsure of how to tap into and harness that incredible power. In a journal entry two years prior, I had written nearly the exact same thing. I suddenly realized that my situation wasn’t going to change until I took action. However, I had no idea know where to begin.
My vision of the future was steeped in hopeless daydreams and laced with far more fear than excitement. I wanted to be a writer, but I didn’t think that I was qualified or that people would pay for my services. Through her poignant questions, objective observations, and practical suggestions, Lamisha helped me find the clarity and confidence necessary to actively dream and scheme towards my ideal future. She helped me realize that my “silly little hobby” was actually a solid foundation on which to build a sustainable income. In my eight weeks working with Lamisha, I have transitioned from “I hope to be a writer someday” to proudly declaring myself a writer and sharing my dreams with others.
Lamisha encouraged me to follow my inspiration, which led to an incredible series of synchronous opportunities, as well as the courage to walk away from a “perfect” situation that did not feel right. I have since learned to trust and fully embrace the journey. My comfort zone has been expanding exponentially, and I’m realizing that the periphery is a safe place in which I can challenge myself and grow. As that “safe zone” has expanded, so too has my self-confidence.
Being held accountable for my personal dreams suddenly made them feel both achievable and imminent. Lamisha not only believed in my dreams, but supported my efforts along the way. Small achievements–such as having a piece published and joining Toastmasters–felt monumental when I could share with someone who had invested in my success; whereas I could be assured that creeping self-doubt–such as fear of applying for freelance work–is normal. The second I spilled out my biggest dreams and the second that Lamisha chose to believe in my potential, I knew that I had no choice but to achieve greatness.”
I am so grateful for this wonderful experience that consistently reaffirms that this is the work I am meant to do and I am so happy to share it with all of my readers and future clients.
