Mindvalley Certified Life Coach

"Now I am a therapist and a new coach"

I'm a 50 year-old divorced mother of two wonderful teenagers.
During this program we practice with our peers and receive feedback, which is really helpful to see our progress and know different perspectives and coaching styles.
Last month (March 2022), after sharing that I feel really happy with my life now (I was the coachee that day), I received a feedback that completelly disoriented me.
 As a coachee I didn't expect any feedback and those words really hurt me and made me burst into tears.
I contacted one of our mentors (thanks, Coach Bruno) after the session and made me think about what triggered me that way.
 Also, my peers (during other practice sessions) helped me a lot to understand what happened.
It was four days later when all the dots connected:
Only six months before starting the Certified Life Coach Program I felt myself into a deep, black hole. No future, no hope, no money. No reason to live. I was seriously thinking about ending with my life.
Now I am a therapist and a new coach. I live my life with bliss, full of love and happiness.
 What has changed? Above all, my perspective. 
 How did I change? Following the steps, letting myself to be coached, working on me and for me, fixing all my pieces before trying to help anyone fix theirs.
 And most of that help came from this program (and others like "Calling in The One")
So what triggered me that day?
 I realized that I was waiting for external recognition about all the progress done. 
 Who would do it if only me knew the path I walked?
 I understood that the only valid recognition comes always from the inside.
I started prizing me, putting me first.
 Enjoying spending time with myself.
That feedback gave me a great outcome.
 Now I see my life from a more conscious perspective.
Thank you for your time reading me.
 Lots of love. Wish you all the best
