Two of the biggest roadblocks to achieving your goals are negative emotions and limiting beliefs. For example, emotions like doubt and fear—and beliefs like “I don’t have what it takes” or “What if I fail?”—can stop you in your tracks. They can cause procrastination, self-sabotage, and sometimes even lead you to settle for less than what you truly want.

I once bought into beliefs like these myself. Because I believed they were facts, I traded passion for stability. As a result, I gave up on my dream of becoming an actress and instead became an elementary school teacher.

However, after 12 years of simply going through the motions, I realized something important. Even though I followed the rules and did everything I was “supposed” to do, I was still single, alone, and working in a job that felt like someone else’s dream.

What I truly wanted was simple: to feel happy, fulfilled, and excited to wake up every day doing work I loved.

So, after this realization, I began paying attention to the people and opportunities around me. I connected with a kind-hearted co-worker and even met Mr. Spirituality through a dating app—go figure! Interestingly, both of these experiences inspired me to start creating the life I actually wanted.

With that in mind, I decided to “bloom where I was planted.” I developed Mindful Matters, a mindfulness program designed to support children. However, one year later that door closed. Instead of seeing it as failure, I saw it as a turning point.

So, I pivoted and began coaching adults on a global scale.

Soon after, turning the big “4-oh” pushed me to take an even bigger leap. I resigned from my teaching job so I could fully dedicate myself to helping others create lives and businesses that truly align with who they are.

Today, Mindful Matters has evolved into a proven program for entrepreneurs and high-achieving professionals who want to move beyond the limits of their current self-image so they can create the results they truly want.
