A Journey of Transformation: From Heartbreak to Life Coaching
Sometimes, life pushes us toward change in the most unexpected ways. My journey to becoming a Certified Life Coach began at one of the lowest points in my life, during the most grueling and painful breakup I had ever experienced. I had lost what I believed to be the love of my life, and in the process, I lost myself too. I spiraled into an existential crisis, questioning everything, my purpose, my path, my very identity.
 At the time, I was working as a tour operator, navigating the external world with ease but struggling internally. Desperate for relief, I started downloading self-help books, searching for something—anything—that could help me make sense of my pain. That’s when I stumbled upon "The Code of the Extraordinary Mind" by pure chance, or maybe, by fate. 
I didn’t just read the book; I absorbed it. I listened to it not once, but three times in a row. It shifted my perspective, offering me a new way to see my world at a time when I felt completely lost. It was as if someone had handed me a flashlight in the middle of my darkest night. 
By the time I finished, I knew I needed to do something more. That’s when I made the decision to enroll in the Life Coaching Certification program, a decision that has turned out to be one of the best I’ve ever made. 
This journey has been as much about healing myself as it has been about learning to help others. I’m still in the process of rebuilding, of restructuring my life piece by piece. I don’t know yet if I will fully step into coaching, but what I do know is this: if this program could help me in my darkest moments, then perhaps, as I continue to heal, I can help others do the same. 
And maybe, that’s exactly what I’m meant to do.
