One year ago today, I officially started The Awareness Effect Coaching.I thought I’d spend this year only building my brand and finding some clients.But I actually got to expand my vision and get out of my comfort zone.By being on LinkedIn I discovered something I never expected - people enjoy what I’m sharing; my personal thoughts and subjects that matter to me.This past year I helped, among others…

♡ A woman leave her 15-year job to start fresh by facing her fears - she’s now in Indonesia resting and figuring out her next chapter.♡ I helped someone here in Hawaii prepare to move to Spain by facing her fears and past traumas so she could leave free from them.♡ I helped another woman break out of survival mode that had become so familiar and “safer.” Leaving it felt scary first but she slowly started to see that she was praying for opportunities that she was receiving but not seeing. She let go of her side job to invest all her energy and love in her own business.With we started creating Sacred Space: Women’s Healing & Visioning Circle, and it’s growing into something cool. Now we have Sacred Space Live - conversations about topics we often help people navigate through our work.An exciting partnership is coming for next year. 😉 😉 to that partner in crime that will recognize herself...I started building a LinkedIn community that actually feels like real friendship.

And here on Substack, I’m taking the time to go slow and enjoy the more grounded environment that this platform offers. Not everything worked out as planned - some projects got crickets, others I had to pause.I got burned out from trying to be consistent on LinkedIn while being an octopus managing every part of my business. I had to slow down my life coaching accreditation with Association for Coaching (AC) to focus on resting after 6 months studying at Jay Shetty Certification School, I decided to prioritize my needs and other projects.I stopped asking “who might want this?” and started building what felt authentic. When you stop forcing outcomes and start showing up as yourself, business happens in ways you didn’t expect.Some parts still feel slow. Other parts are moving faster than I imagined.Here’s what I know for sure after one year: I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be, doing exactly what I’m meant to do. Even if some days the old programming from hustle culture still tests me.The awareness effect isn’t just what I offer my clients - it’s what happened to me too.Year two, here we come.

Feeling thankful for this and for you! 🤍

Okay now I’m done.
