I was resistant to even sharing what I wanted, even though I did have the desire to help people and now I'm helping people and I still have to watch those old patterns to help people at the cost of my own self.

Absolutely not.

So at the beginning, I think it was around 2018, where I finally allowed her to convince me, okay, I'll start sharing a little bit of my ideas and my journey as a human on social media.

I would have had no idea how great and resounding the resonance would be outside of even, I was living in Philadelphia at the time, operating within a private practice model.

And I had no idea that, you know, within the first year people would be

resonating joining from around the world interested in hearing more and working with me in this new way so but throughout the beginning i mean even learning how to speak on camera put up content was such a big challenge for me i don't care how many times she would say to me i would say something over coffee and she'd be like wow that's like really insightful i think you should share that in a video later your followers want to see you and i say okay

20 minutes, half hour later, she'd pick up the phone.

She'd be like, okay, say what you said to me earlier.

And it was as if my mind went blank.

I had no idea what to say anymore.

Just putting a camera in front of me was near debilitating.

So from the beginning, I've had to work through a lot of my own resistance to being seen, fear of

criticism or being misunderstood.

And I've been able to get more comfortable with speaking publicly, understanding that once you do share something, you do open yourself up for interpretation.

And what keeps me going is the people from around the world who are gaining benefit or having a new awareness about why they're stuck and who are gaining the tools to finally create new actions.

I mean, this has now become what I would describe as a purpose, a passion, you know, my why in life.

There was a time, again, back when I started that I was so in survival mode, still coming out of childhood trauma and exhaustion and burnout and performing for worthiness that...

I actually didn't think I had that.

I would hear people, you know, leaders, people that were successful, talk about feeling purposeful and passionate and being driven by the inner kind of energy to produce.

And I just didn't have that.
