Although I’m comfortable in person and communicate well, writing has always been a personal challenge. If you had asked me anytime in the past, “Would you ever consider writing a book?” I would have answered with a big, fat, loud “NO!”
Considering English isn’t my first language, the thought of becoming an author never crossed my mind. Besides, how could I write a book about my life story if my life story isn’t even close to being done yet? Will my story ever be done? I guess you could call me a “semi-finished product” with a great deal left to experience and learn.
Based on the transformational changes in the lives of the many clients I’ve been coaching, I know in my heart that I have a lot to offer in helping others in their life searches and challenges. This is why I am writing, and this is why I am sharing. I don’t feel there’s some mystic destination in store for my life or yours – I’m openly enjoying and loving all the adventures life is teaching me every day.
I want to expose you to the many possibilities of fun, passion, love, peace and abundance for your life.
As long as I’m having fun, I am going to continue to teach, mentor, train, and talk. This is only one piece and one part of my purposeful journey. Over time, I’ve learned that occasionally you and I may find ourselves on what seems like a particular path, but suddenly, God decides to take us on a detour, and we find ourselves on an entirely different path.
It’s okay. There’s always a reason. Our ultimate goal should be to enjoy life, have fun, stay open, be willing to adapt as we go, listen, and always try to do what’s best for us and those we love… even those we haven’t met yet. And, I want the same for you.
It’s important to me that you learn a little more about me from the start if you are going to understand what I’m sharing in this book.
Let’s start with some personal insight into how this book came about, and how I came to be.
It all started from outside of me. For years, people sought me out asking for advice on life, business, relationships; its challenges, and the path to success.
No matter who might ask for help, I would always share my true-life experiences with anyone who was interested in learning more with two conditions:
…they are to ask to learn from me, …and not to judge me.
I don’t live my life according to anyone’s standard, I live my life on my terms and only do what I feel is in my heart. My life has been filled with what others may think of as overwhelming obstacles, yet I’ve always found a way to overcome every one of them, allowing me to continue moving forward. I realized that my life story as I related it, could inspire people to do more and to achieve more in their lives… if they would begin by following their heart’s deepest desires.
It seems that with every opportunity that came about when I shared my story, I could see the positive impact it inspired. More people were finding Inner Peace and a fresh look at life. There are many powerful lessons I’ve learned from all that life has thrown at me, and now I want to share them in detail, both good and bad. I can humbly say the stories and lessons I share have grown into something of a life of their own. I believe deep down inside that you have the same possibilities.
Here’s an example of where it all started. Once I had achieved some degree of success in my business, I was invited to speak at a ladies empowerment event on a large stage, in front of a large group. This was a huge and scary request for me.
I wasn’t a speaker at all, much less a polished speaker
The thought of standing in front of all those women, and talking about my life, my story, and my struggle, was way outside of my comfort zone. Even as I looked in the mirror at an educated, professional, self-empowered woman who had escaped the horrors of war, stereotypes, and bad relationships I was still afraid. In all that pride, there was still fear at the thought of being a featured speaker.
I was freaking out. Why was I even there? They had portrayed me as a speaker, but who the heck was I to tell these women anything that could empower them?
Sitting there, waiting for my time to be called up to speak, my nerves already shot up from a standard 3 to about 100. As the event continued with a variety of speakers, it was clear the event was already running over, and I hadn’t spoken yet. Fortunately, my nerves came back down to almost normal as I crumpled up my notes and let out a deep sigh of relief…now they’d have to reschedule me.
Like a voice from another world, out of nowhere, the MC announced my name as the final speaker and she began to read my introduction. Nerves? There they go again. In a bit of a haze, I went straight out on this huge stage and stood in front of all these women, all waiting for the final speaker.
I stood all alone freaking out, looking out across this sea of tired faces. Each one was already full of ideas and advice from all those who had preceded me, wondering what this woman was going to contribute….
