My StoryMy journey to better health began when I was diagnosed with Grand Mal Epilepsy at the age of 21. I took up to 5 pills a day to control it.
I had it until I was about 38 when it became dormant. My time with Naturopathic doctors was really the beginning of my fascination with combining Eastern and Western Medicine. I had incredible MD's and Naturopathic doctors. My physical needs were being met, but something inside me needed care too. Getting Epilepsy at the age of 21 changed my life, it changed me! It changes how you see yourself, how you feel about things, the world and everyone around you. It causes you to look at everything in a very different perspective. None of us really know exactly what internal battles we each have. I felt I had to prove that I could do and accomplish things, and I struggled with not being good enough or smart enough… I felt awful! I felt labeled. But I kept it all to myself! A fabulous life coach introduced me to Crystal Andrus and The S.W.A.T. Institute about twelve years ago. What a game changer! Crystal’s courses changed my life. Not only was I a student of her school but I had the chance to work for her as well. It taught me my purpose and how I wanted to give back. Since then, I have continued to study, and I will continue to so that I can help others in their journey. |
So, I thought,
"Okay if they are telling me all the things I can’t do,
what about all the things I can do."
And then…
A great friend told me about the Danielle LaPorte licensing program on "The Desire Map” in November of 2014, and that I should take a look at it. WOW! I was beyond thrilled and excited to look at it as I have followed and loved Danielle's work for some time. I had listened to a GREAT call with Crystal Andrus and Danielle LaPorte back a few years ago. Talk about the right thing coming to me at the right time again!
Then, in 2016 and I went to a Business Networking lunch and met Michelle Nedelec. Every Friday about 25 of us met for a Business Networking lunch. Fast forward... I am having coffee with Michelle Nedelec, and we were discussing Epilepsy and WHAM! In an instant, my life changed again!
She brought up things I had never thought of. She hit the nail on the head. Michelle is an unbelievable coach and mentor. She has done incredible things for others. She has received awards for her work with PTSD clients.
A few months later, I was listening to a business presentation of hers, and I booked a one-on-one with her with the intention to hire her to be my coach that following Friday.
And then it happened … the night before we were meeting, her company launched "Success Therapy." All I knew was that the first thing I read on that website was exactly what I needed.
I ALMOST FELL FLAT ON MY FACE!
I feel I have found my authentic path and my way of perhaps helping others, a way of giving back and living my true purpose. If it were not for the Epilepsy and these three ladies, I would not be where I am today as a Certified Activation Method Coach, a Licensed Facilitator, an Ambassador for Canadian Epilepsy Alliance, and am trained in Mental Health First Aid.
My journey and a variety of studies continue.
