I just came across these old pictures of me and it's scary...
I want to share with you some highlights of my personal transformation...
How much STUBBORNNESS do you really need?
I mean, really...
You want success but you are afraid to be seen. You want to make a big impact, but you're working with a handful of clients. You want to build a great and consistent income, but you're afraid to sell. You want to have time with your kids and for yourself, but you are a workaholic. You have inconsistent results, but you keep doing it your way. You want financial freedom, but you don't want to invest in your business.
No judgment. But please, learn from my mistake. Give yourself and the world a favor: Stop the stubbornness.
This is breaking my heart, I just came across these old pictures of me. And they teach me a lot. It's scary. A lot about my stubbornness. Can you see the transformation? And can you see how much time it took?
Exactly.
Too much time and too much drama before I went out of my own way.
2005 - Just left France (my native country), with nothing more than a red suitcase, broke, zero professional experience, zero confidence, the seed of a dream, and the desire to use my gifts and be independent. But losing compass trying to please others.
2011 - Co-running a marketing agency, office-based, soon employing a team of 7, leading successful projects across Europe... YAY! Until the financial crash. Realizing I was faking myself. Seeking for answers, diving deep into personal development wisdom, thirsty for clarity, truth, freedom, and travel.
2013 - Hawaii, NDE, wake-up call, published first book, started online coaching business, invested in my first mentors (but let's call them life-saviors), transforming lives starting with my own. Thirsty to help others, but scared to market, working 1:1, and still a workaholic.
2017 -
Working with business & personal development coaches. Built a leveraged online business, location-free, traveled to over 30 countries and counting, global impact on hundreds of entrepreneurs. Passionate about helping, marketing, selling. And still LEARNING.
I wish I'd tell my younger self:
You are enough. You don't need to reinvent the wheel.
You've got a much deeper purpose than that. Focus on your zone of genius, write down your goals, implement. And get support in the areas you need help with.
