I had a very difficult time starting in 2016 when I started suffering from a deep depression. Many things were not going right in my life at that time and it all came crashing down on me with depression, anxiety and panic attacks. It took me 18 months of working with a psychologist ( a real blessing) to get back to a kind of "normal" state where I could function at work without breaking down during the regular business hours.
Now I'm able to manage the short lived episodes I still have from time to time and learned to live with it. I can't go one day without meditation. It's my secret weapon to stay afloat and not fall back to that dark place where I was 7 years ago.
But as everything in life, everything happens for a reason. This dark season in my life made me much more sensitive, aware of other people's feelings and connected me back to my family. This is how I got into coaching and then allowed me to create my current venture. Thanks to this new found sensibility I'm able to connect at a much deeper level with parents and students and help them focus on the things that bring them joy and fulfillment.
