If you’re reading this, it tells me that you would like to know a little more about me and how I got to where I am now i.e being a life coach and a Demartini Method Facilitator who works with mothers. I personally always love to read about someone I am in interested in following online or working with, I hope you enjoy what you read here on my page and feel free to message me if you have any quest
ions regarding what I do. The night before a work conference that my husband had helped organise began, I was online (nothing new there) and I cant remember exactly what it was that I was reading, but I stumbled upon the most beautiful blog that set fireworks off in my heart and mind (there were a few tears as well, I can assure you). I didn’t sleep much that night as I stayed up very late reading what felt like EVERYTHING on this woman’s blog. I felt different when I woke up and as the day and evening and then weekend progressed, I knew something inside of me had changed and could no longer be ignored. It was as if all of a sudden I could see what had always been there, the blinkers were gone. I spoke to a mother of two children during a break in the conference and we connected as only mothers can, we shared our birth stories both brutal and beautiful. I listened to stories of a mother who did not want to go to a party because she felt that she would have nothing of interest to add to the conversation as she was ‘just’ a stay at home mum, and of a wife who questioned her value in terms of what she could contribute to a family business, she was also a stay at home mum at that particular time. There was an amazing woman who told me that she felt torn between happiness and guilt because she enjoyed going to work as she was getting a break from her children for a while. It was as if the universe was talking to me. I began to remember conversations of other women I had met over the years since I had become a mother. All of these women, myself included, had a story to tell. Some of these stories were painful to listen to as they confessed how difficult they were finding motherhood, or how going back to work had left them heartbroken or relieved, either way both options left the mother consumed by guilt. Other stories made me cry with laughter as I was regaled with episodes of exploding nappies, leaking breasts at the most inappropriate times and the madness that had kicked in due to lack of sleep. There are so many reasons to feel connected to one another and yet so many of us feel alone. I researched how I could interact with mothers in such a tangible way that would allow me to help them change their lives. Since then I have completed my advanced diploma in personal coaching and have set up my coaching business, Our Brave Hearts. I have also completed The Demartini Method Training Program and I am now a Demartini Method Facilitator. The Demartini Method developed by Dr. John Demartini is a scientific process that balances perceptions and emotions. It is being used professionally by many psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, educators, consultants and health professionals across the world. The Demartini Method is a tool with a 1000 uses for empowering and inspiring life and its applications include reducing stress, resolving conflict and creating new perspectives and paradigms for life. So now you know a little bit about me and how I came to be in this position of reaching out to women. How can I help you? Is there something on your mind that you haven’t told anyone about and it feels heavy to carry this around all the time? Are you struggling with the day to day reality of motherhood and trying to balance a career as well?Would you like some help to clarify what it is that you want for yourself right now? It can be so difficult to honour our needs when we aren’t even sure what they really are. You’re not alone. I’ll be here, ready to meet you half way and recognise your Brave Heart.
