When I think back on what the single most important investment I have ever made in myself, it was hiring a coach in 2013 when I was feeling stuck, burnt out, depressed and afraid.
I was afraid that I would never find the courage to make choices that would allow me to have a better life-a life that I created by my design instead of by default.
Had I realized what a game changer this would be for me, I would have done this much sooner. I now know that this decision to invest in a coach was worth every penny and it has enriched my life on soooo many levels.
As a result of working with my coach, I left a job that I had been wanting to leave for quite some time and although I was scared to death that I could lose everything, I doubled my income that year!
Some of the other benefits of coaching were:
- I started a new business-my coaching practice
- I doubled the income from my Home Staging business
- I am less stressed out and more full of joy
- My relationships are better
- I don’t stress out about money like I used to
- I take better care of my health
- I am creating my life the way that I want-fearlessly, soulfully and joyfully
- I feel as though I have way more power over my destiny
The gift of coaching that I gave to myself did not come at a time when I had an abundance of money to invest in myself.
In fact it was quite the opposite. Ironically, I invested in a top notch and not so inexpensive coach at a time when I felt financially unable to.
Having skin in the game is a great motivator!
What about you?
Is there something in your life that you would like to change?
Do you have a dream for your life that you are holding back on?
What would your life look like if you were not afraid?
Believe it or not, a coach will help you look your fears in the face and find ways to keep them from making you play small in your life.
Most fears that you have are actually an illusion-they feel real but they are truly not-they are stories that you tell yourself and they are often subconsciously ingrained in you.
Often it is difficult to do this by yourself because it is hard to be objective, Unravelling those fears so that they don’t usurp your dreams is one of the most important things that a coach can do! It will change everything.
Before I left my job I was terrified that we wouldn’t be able to pay our bills, we might lose our house and not be able to help our daughters with weddings, etc. and I would feel like such a loser…….
None of my fears came true! Not one! In fact I am thriving!
Since that time, I have had the pleasure of coaching many women so that they conquer their fears and take on the world with a newfound passion, joy and purpose. To witness this transformation is truly a gift in my life!
“It has been such a pleasure to work with Marianne Cherico. With compassion and wisdom she has helped me to see things more clearly and focus on what I really want in my life. Her laser focus on my agenda helps me identify what is important to me, and recognize the things that stop me from playing a bigger game. I am so grateful for her guidance and truly believe that she is helping me create my best life ever”
