The Start:
From the first time I spoke to this incredible woman I was so excited to help her unlock her inner leader and really refind who she was. Knowing that finding HER would help her become a change maker!
It broke my heart to hear where she was when we first started working together… Her story is her own but I’m sure it’ll resonate with so many of you.
Issy was signed off work with anxiety and stress. After so many years of pushing, hustling to get to a BIG role in a male dominated company she had nothing left to give. This was the second time in the last few months she’d been signed off and she was ashamed and embarrassed.
She had a BIG role, in a very male dominated business and had fought hard for so long to get to where she was. She was respected, and had a great reputation but she was scared of losing it all. It has been so hard won, to get there.
When we started working together Issy was in tears, scared about the future and not being able to see a way out. From our first call, she felt hope and a calm sense that coaching was right for her.
The Journey:
We started working on firstly letting her feel all the emotions, she became a prolific journaller which helped her clear years of proving herself again and again.
She cried for a week at the beginning, as she gave herself permission to lean into what she’d been too scared to feel ever before .. for fear of it being a sign of weakness.
We then helped her start to feel good in her time off, to reset herself, recover and get her energy back. She started falling back in love with reading and baking, giving time to her passions helped her to relax and just enjoy the moment.
Then we worked on her self identity, helping her to own her incredible story of coming to the country with nothing and creating this amazing career. And also finding and aligning to her values to really know who she was. And finally looking at her beliefs that were holding her back and learning to work with her nagging inner voice.
Then we created a plan for her to go back to work, with clear boundaries and being clear on what her role was and speaking up more and more with confidence on who she was.
She grew before my eyes, her eyes started to sparkle again. She went from crying on calls to laughing and loving learning about herself.
The Results:
🔥Being offered her dream job, a few months after being back at work and being Braveheart in the office saying no without guilt or feeling bad.
🔥Standing out as herself at work, speaking up with courage to challenge and change the status quo and becoming a mental health first aider.
🔥Finding and moving into her dream house with her husband, pinching herself that she lived in a house that she’d dreamed of for years.
🔥Closer to her family than ever before, her mum, sister and husband feeling lighter, laughing more and spending guilt free time with them.
