What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am a Transformational Life & Spirituality Coach & Hypnotherapist. I am also a Certified Trainer & Master Practitioner of Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP), Life and Success Coaching, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), T.I.M.E Techniques, Hypnosis, Reiki & Crystal Healing, as well as Beyond Quantum Healing Practitioner and a TRE® Provider (Tension & Trauma Release Exercise)
I am devoted to helping clients overcome the mental and emotional blocks that limit their joy and the pursuit of their passions. I've helped individuals to release stubborn, negative emotions such as anxiety, stress, and limiting beliefs. I guide my clients into a state of mind better aligned with their true and authentic selves, and I provide a structure that clarifies my clients' goals and develops a focused plan that will fulfill those goals.
Tell us about yourself
I have attached a little chapter that explains who I am and what got me into this type of work. What motivates me is helping other individuals go through their spiritual journey. Being there to guide them and support them. This journey can often feel lonely, and my objective is to be the person that can be there for them, love them unconditionally and support them.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
The well-rounded coaching program I have put together to help and support individuals that are ready to heal themselves from past life pain and trauma.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
The belief that you have to do everything on your own. When you first start off in business, you realize that there are so many moving parts. And far too often, we also believe that we have to do it all ourselves. The hardest lesson for me to learn this far has been releasing the need to do everything myself. And learning to ask for help when I need it.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Have a business plan in place, and map out your 1, 3, 5, and 10-year goals.
- Learn how to ask for help.
- Leverage technology to automate as much as possible.
