In January of 2013, I wrote a goal down on a piece of paper.

I want to find a life coach.

Not just any coach, but the right coach for me.  I wanted to learn a 'better' way to think.

I wanted to learn skills to process my emotions and my life in a healthier and more productive way.  

I didn't know exactly what I was looking for, but I knew in my soul there was more that I needed to learn.

I didn't realize exactly what I'd done at the time, but the intention was set and the declaration was made.

The Universe was on it.

Three months later a guy that I didn't know named Steve Hardison walked into my life. I found out that the rest of the world called him 'The Ultimate Coach'. I didn't set out to become one of his clients and initially resisted it. However, it was crystal clear that God had other plans. Steve was absolutely supposed to be a part of my life's journey. 

 

When the student is ready, the teacher appears. 

During coaching I started to learn all about the power of the mind and the power of I AM statements.

I learned about the power of declarations and creating my world, instead of reacting to it.

I learned about living from a place of abundance and faith, instead of fear based living.

I learned about the power of surrendering and that what we resist will persist.

I learned about mind-body medicine and I learned about how the mind impacts the body.

I learned about the healing powers of meditation.

I learned about loving and accepting myself exactly as I AM. 

 

And so much more......

​

While in this rather exciting space of learning and coaching, I had no idea that God was actually giving me the exact tools I needed ahead of time to not only grow as a person, but to literally survive the trial I was about to stare down.  In this process, I look back now and can see that He was also perfectly orchestrating as only He can, by surrounding me with some of the world's best coaches and doctors; all of whom contributed a critical piece in helping

me on my healing journey. All of these doctors and coaches understood and practiced this mindfulness

and utilized it in the medicine they practiced.

 

I was about to get a crash course and real life application of all of these new

principles and mindset tools I was learning. 

​

What I share here in all of my writing are bits and pieces of what I have learned throughout this journey.

An unexpected blessing of such a monumental trial, is the extraordinary learning and education I have received

both in health matters as well as mindset matters.

In love and light,
