From the Heart of a Life Coach…
From the outside, my life may look polished—nice posts, smiles, and what seems like balance. But the truth is, behind every photo and every word is a story of endurance, survival, and choosing to keep going even when it’s hard.
There are days I feel like I’m failing—as a mother, as a provider, as someone trying to show up emotionally when I’m already stretched too thin. It’s a constant juggle between responsibilities and expectations. And sometimes… I drop the ball.
I get overwhelmed. The noise, the pressure, the impossible schedule—it all builds up. And then I break. My anxiety spikes, and pretending that everything is “fine” becomes unbearable.
But here’s the truth: Life isn’t always beautiful. Sometimes it’s just about making it through the day—not to be your best, but to avoid being your worst.
As a life coach, I don’t claim to have it all figured out. I do the work. I learn. I fall. I get back up. And I keep showing up—not perfectly, but honestly.
What’s made the biggest difference for me? Support. Not a crowd—just a few people who genuinely listen. Not to fix, not to judge, but just to hold space.
And yes, sometimes that includes seeing a professional who helps me dig deep, face the uncomfortable truths, and challenge me to fight my inner battles—so I can be more for myself and for those I love.
I wouldn’t trade my experiences. They’ve shaped my growth. But that doesn’t mean they’ve been easy—and that’s okay. It’s okay for life to just be hard sometimes.
💛 If you’re looking for support too, I’ll be starting a “Forcing Party.”
Once a month, we’ll gather—just for 2 hours—to sit with ourselves and do one thing that gets us closer to the life we want.
You don’t need to have it all together. Just be willing to show up.
✨ Watch this space for more info. You’re not alone.
