Be The Example

I was one of those people that used to think that I needed to shove all this self love stuff down people’s throat to get them to make changes.  I have a passion for helping women along their journey that I thought it was the best way to reach them and show them that they can live the life they’ve imagined.  I was wrong.  So very wrong.

While it’s important for me to help women by giving them challenges along the way, tasks here and there that can help them, boosting their confidence through boudoir photo shoots, sending them home with a self love activities booklet…I realized it was more important for me to be the example.

I will always tell women how important, special, amazing and loved they are – that will not change.  I really want a bright light to radiate from me when people see me and know that I speak the truth.  But, more importantly, I’ve learned that I have to be the example.  I have to show them the love and care that I give to myself.  They have to see how it’s changed my life.  How I’ve stripped off the masks I’ve been hiding behind and stood in the light.

When they see that, they’ll want it too.

You see people tend to get to shy away from something when you are pushy about it, they may even reject it.  I never want someone to reject and turn from this path that I’m on because it’s so amazing.  I’ve found so much freedom in joy in letting go of the things that don’t matter.  I will continue to post what I do, challenge people to make changes, think about what they are doing, determine the messages they are sending to those around them, and encourage them to make a change.  Not force, not push …. encourage!  Be an example.  Be the light.  Be the love.

Seeing change in yourself attracts others to that change too.  Then you help them along their journey.  My clients know it, my clients see it, and they encourage and inspire others too!

I’ll be sharing soon my Self Care Menu!
