In Pursuit Of Freedom

As you already know, my background is in the Corporate arena. I grew up there.

But when, after 25 years, I finally decided to quit this world, I had no idea what I wanted to do – only how I wanted to FEEL.

FREEDOM – that was my goal. I wanted to create a life where I could live and work from anywhere in the world and spend time doing only the things that I love – like photography.

I am really keen to develop my skills as a photographer whilst travelling to faraway corners of the globe. Sounds great don’t you think? I do! Though I must be honest, I had no idea how to achieve my goal and still generate an income.

When the idea of COACHING was first presented, I pursued this merely out of curiosity rather than any long-held desire to be a Coach. For sure, I have always been interested in personal growth & self-development, attending many events & conferences and reading numerous books on the subject since my early 20s. But a coach myself? – I had never really considered it. So, as I headed to Venice for the 2-day event, I found myself in a state of excited curiosity as to whether this would be the path by which I would achieve my dream to create a FREEDOM based life.

By the end of the first day, I had already signed up to participate in a 12 Month Coaching Academy. I knew instantly that COACHING was my destiny – and if ‘FREEDOM’ was to be an upside, then so be it. But I had absolutely no idea at the outset, just how much personal growth and transformation would come for ME from this programme.

I remain committed to my FREEDOM based lifestyle but now I understand that it is about soooooo much more than living by the ocean for 6 months of the year. That’s appealing of course, and one day soon I’m going to do exactly that. But now I realise that a life of FREEDOM is so much bigger than where I live or the number of hours I work, and so I am now committed to setting myself FREE in all areas of my life.

Here are just a few of the areas that resonate with me and that I am working through right now:

1. FREEDOM from all the limiting beliefs

Freedom from all the limiting beliefs that have prevented me from being the BEST possible version of me and living my best LIFE. You will remember that last week I shared with you my insight about my ‘glass ceiling’.

2. FREEDOM from all the clutter around my home

Our homes are a reflection of our lives and household clutter makes it hard for our minds to let go and truly relax. Clutter also drains our mental energy. When we de-clutter, our minds become more free and we have more time and mental energy to think and plan. We become more creative.

3. FREEDOM from the pain of the past

We all have people and experiences in our life that have caused us so much pain. I am no different from any of you reading this newsletter. But in order to live a life of FREEDOM, it is essential to forgive those who have hurt us and let go of the pain of our past.

4. FREEDOM from the energy vampires

You know who they are right? They are the people who – when you spend time with them, leave you feeling like you just had the life sucked right out of you! They drain you. Eliminate them from your life or at least limit the amount of time you spend with them and surround yourself with high-vibrational people who make you feel great.

5. FREEDOM to be who I really am

All of us, to greater and lesser extents, spend our lives ‘keeping up appearances’. We project the version of ourselves we want others to see.

But the greater the gap between who we really are and who we project ourselves to be, the greater the chance of serious trouble in our lives.

And, in truth, freedom won’t be found until we close that gap between who we pretend to be and who we really are. Flaws and all!

And so my gorgeous friend, my question to you right now is – what does FREEDOM look like to you? And more importantly, what is stopping you from living freely in all areas of your life?

Together we can explore what FREEDOM looks like for you and how that flows into your Dream Life.

I can’t wait to hear from you.

Sending you so much love
