What I don’t want you to know about me is that sometimes I blush. I get red all over my face.

Yeah.. I don’t like that about me, as for many years I tried to control it (since I was in 7th grade)..The funny thing is that in order to control the blushing, I need to control my emotions. Actually not showing any.. Hmm..

Lately, I am showing a lot of emotions. When I talk to someone new about a topic dear to me, like about a book or just about coaching, I’m caught off guard – I don’t have enough time to hide the emotion. And then the blushing shows. And I feel a little bit ashamed.

The power of coaching: Life In Progress

Tonight I had a wonderful call with a special and colourful coach Allison Crow. I brought to the table my deep question: why is it hard for me to ask for help. What’s keeping me from asking for support and guidance? I give myself credit for the courage to explore this with a person I’ve just met. But I was open and I really admire Allison’s work. I love how’s she’s being herself (I want to discover myself too, my uniqueness – and I want to bring that to my coaching too).

Fear is so powerful. It can paralyse. It can stop you from your journey. It can delay your success. It can change your life, impacting it in a negative way.

Yes, I do have it as well. And I feel it’s power. I feel the way it creeps into my heart. Specially, the fear of taking action. I have it even now.
But that won’t stop me from sharing it. I’m taking away from it’s power once I admit it’s there. I know that I’m not alone, that I’m connected with so many beautiful souls. I’m surrounded by love. You are too! Maybe you let yourself see the love, maybe not. But it’s there.

Yesterday, I’ve created a space for a few people to think about their goals for 2016 (with pen and paper, with clear exercises to help them get really specific).

I’ve also did these exercises and worksheets.
I think it’s the first time for me to set up goals that clear and on the paper. I’ve always had them in my mind, but never on paper. While I was doing the Annual Goal Setting Worksheet, I was getting more and more excited for the new year! I’m way more aware now of that I want to do in order to make my goals happen.

Mahatma Gandhi stated: “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

I just got a huge insight. I’ve read this quote before, and it was nice, it made sense.. But now I’m seeing and feeling this quote deep inside. It’s beautiful, it’s scary, it’s overwhelming.

I’m stepping up my coaching now!

I want to coach powerful men and women, who inspire me and drive me to make the world a better place.

Our week looks like this: we work most of the time, workout sometimes if we’re really in the mood, then sleep. But, our soul.. do we really take care of it?

I had the opportunity to take a great online course about how to transform your passion into a business. 3 months full of theory and practice. But it all came from a starting point: “what is your passion?” Some of us knew exactly what their hobbies/ passions were, some were confused, some discovered them throughout the course. One of the ways to tell what is THE passion, was to think of what you liked doing when you were a child, when everything seemed possible.
