I recently teamed up with Recovery Coach Stefan Rudolph to talk about the issues of managing a job while living with Epilepsy in this short clip of one of their discussions for the H.E.A.L.T.H.Y. support group for people with epilepsy.

H - Holistic

A - Awareness
L - for Loving

​Why I never stepped into my full power until midlife is beyond me. Perhaps I had some strange notion that it was safer to stay small. Sound crazy?

I knew I had it in me, but I seemed to sabotage opportunities, jobs, friendships, and relationships, as I thought they would end anyway since I had a condition. So not true! I knew I could do and achieve whatever I wanted, but I chose not to and always stayed at 80%. Was it easier? Probably. 

I had crazy thoughts and insecurities. I do not feel that way now and have not since I started getting coaching.

I did always have a drive, but . . . fear or denial held me back. 

I know I have a purpose in life now; I know I always did, but what was it?

A coach helped me identify my issues with epilepsy and my desire to coach others so they did not have to go through all that I went through. Why I held myself back in the past is a mystery. So much time was wasted, but the journey was a great lesson.

I became determined and would not stop until I got to where I am now. After years of learning and training, I have a business; the journey ahead is SO exciting for me: serving others and hopefully being of service in helping them live with more ease.

Can you feel that you are holding yourself back, just a little or maybe a lot? Let's talk and explore why that is. Epilepsy may never leave you, but it does not have to STOP you.

I was asked by someone about 4 years ago, "What was going on in your life when you got epilepsy?" What? I had no idea! I had a great job, I lived on my own, I had a car, I was going to school part-time. I was partying and having so much fun in life! I had been to college, I had traveled and studied in Europe. As I reflect back on that question I very recently became aware that around that time I was searching for my purpose, my direction, what I was meant to do in life. What was I here for? There was something more but what? What was I supposed to do with my life? I wasn’t too keen on doing all the traditional things.
 
Now, I am not saying getting epilepsy was an answer. The timing was interesting, however. But, I can l tell you that I have found my purpose and calling in this life and that is to provide resources to others with Epilepsy. My journey was not easy at all. If I can make someone else’s journey with Epilepsy a bit better that would be awesome!
 
I learned to take on the mindset of a victor, not a victim. Now that took a lot of work, let me tell you. I also thought, if they are telling me all the things I cant do, what about all the things I can do? I chose to build this business with the intention of helping others perhaps have an easier path forward than what I did.

If you are living with epilepsy and are on a journey to a better life, let's talk! Sign up for a discovery session with me to see if transformation coaching is for you!

I was thinking back over the years to the comments from those that I am sure meant the best, but that did not think I should or could or would do what I do now.

Yes, I put a lot of time and money in to this and I changed direction or got off course by a shiny object at times.

I have to say I also had some great support and encouragement from some fabulous people that were there with me and agreed that I was on the right path.

I had this feeling that kept me going when money was running out that I was working towards what perhaps was my purpose in life and I kept going and going and going.
Through all the changes, hesitations, money I spent on this, the doubt, the fear... I got here.
Thank goodness for my stubbornness, my faith and knowing that this is what I am meant to do.
As I think back on comments made to me such as:
Well, that is not a glamorous business.
Shouldn't you do something else.
No one wants to talk about Epilepsy.
Why did you pick this?
It is hard to start a biz.
Most don't succeed.
That just encouraged me more to go harder on this.

Well, I am doing this!
My hope is that it will help others on their own journey.
It does not matter what others think of me.
It is not about me.
It is not always about the money.
When I leave this planet when it is my time in perhaps 30, 40 or 50 years from now, my hope is that I was a great cheerleader, coach, support, resource, listener, and perhaps mentor for other Women with Epilepsy.

When I look back at my 55th birthday, that is where it all started.
That birthday I felt lost and alone.
​I had lost my partner, too many friends had left this world and my had mother died.
I had lost all my "rocks" in life.
I found myself living on my own, shut down.
​I decided to say enough!
​
I set out to redefine myself and start again.
​I signed up to an empowerment program which was the best decision I ever made.
The next 4 years were a blur, it was a lot of hard work and fighting depression.
​Mind over matter, learn, grow, fight... fantastic things began to happen.
Years later I had my life back thanks to a lot of hard work and great mentors, friends and coaches that encouraged me to follow my purpose, my passion and perhaps the path I was meant for. 
Where are you in your life path?
