my story
Like most coaches, my story as someone who is deeply passionate about personal development and helping other people improve their lives, did not start at the age I graduated from high school.
My life went through a series of sharp twists and turns, before I was able to conclude what purpose I should be persuing.
I studied Accounting, which according to my parents, would provide me a stable career. They were not wrong, but I always felt somehow I had denied a bigger part of myself to grow, as no matter what role I took on, soon I would realize, it did not provide me with the fulfillment I craved.
My career start was nothing of a smooth path. In fact, throughout my career, I walked through steep lows of motivation in regard to what I was doing professionaly. Sometimes it had to do with the work I was doing, sometimes it had to do with the enviornment I was in. Sometimes, both. And I felt stuck - like I could not change my reality, leading me to a constant negative and scarcity mindset.
I remember when I started my career, struggling to come to terms with the fact that I could not help other people directly - something I had realized only later, had extreme signaficance for me. And I was devastated about it. I felt for so many years like I was chasing someone else´s ideals.
Nevertheless, I always found other paths to fulfill the eagerness to help other people, whether it was by listening to a colleague who was going through some personal issues, counseling someone else professionally or even by participating actively in programs to enhance the company´s working culture. And of course, building fantastic relationships with my team members. This is what helped me make it through.
My true nature and purpose were starting to surface, but I still had a long way to go.
It was on one of those, steep, steep lows, on the verge depression, that I decided to go on an inner journey, emersed myself in books, with the goal of understanding myself and making sense of what I wanted, for a change.
That journey helped to ignite my spark again - something I had thought I´d never find- and then, the most important moment of all then happened - I finally realized what it was supposed to be doing.
It then became as clear as water: Coaching had become a big priority in my life.
I realized, I had been coaching my whole life, without even realizing it and this was clearly my gift to the world.
Enthusiastic and excited with the idea, I then decided to persue a degree and graduated as a Life & Success Coach at the Jay Shetty Certification School.
Although Coaching became a passion of mine, I also realized that people and human connection was just as important to me.
I realized that if I created the right circumstances for myself, I could be happy and motivated, doing multiple different things, as long as my drivers were properly tended to and I had the right mindset.
Today, I am proud and happy to be working in corporate as part of a wonderful team, fulfilling one side of me, but still being able to persue my purpose of helping others re-discover their motivation and get their career back on track, through the power of coaching.
Yours truly,
Vanessa
