I worked for 25 years in the health service, until during a very stressful time in my life I started getting severe joint pain, stiffness, and extreme fatigue. I didn't know what was going on. I was always so reliable and attention to detail was important to me. I found it impossible to concentrate and worried I would make an error.
I discovered that I had Lupus with secondary Fibromyalgia. Stress was my biggest trigger. I would have to learn to micro-manage stress for the rest of my life. After extensive sick leave, I decided to take early retirement. This was a soul-destroying moment for me as I watched my career and the colleagues I worked with for so long disappear overnight. I felt invisible to the world in which I lived.
I had 2 children to raise and support. I also did not want them to grow up thinking their Mam, no longer had a true purpose. I knew I had to find the kind of self-designed home-based project that was flexible, allowed me to be there for my children, and was fulfilling.
My degree was in Biomedical Science. I also trained for four years in Biodynamic Psychotherapy. What was I going to do with my life now?
Then, a friend put language on what she saw I was naturally good at 'Intuitive Listening'. Immediately, I researched other areas, in which I could use that valuable skill. I came across Life Coaching and knew that this was for me. I trained part-time, and became accredited. I began my lifelong journey of helping others find their true potential, balance and peace.
A whole world opened up for me. I discovered so many ways to help others find balance in their lives.
I expressed gratitude for the struggles I had in my life because they brought me down this path of fulfilment.
