Welcome to Equilibrium for You
Welcome to my website! I am excited that MY dream is now a reality and I can share with you the magic of coaching. Coaching is the secret ingredient to pull those desires out of the back of your mind and put them front and center to make things that are important to you happen. We only have so much time in this life. What is important to you? What are the things that you let simmer, but that you can’t bring to a boil?
Although I’ve been lucky enough to make some great things happen in my life, I still get out of balance and struggle. We all do. The important thing is to learn how to find your equilibrium again and to create space for the patience and persistence needed to get where you are going. I’ve always treasured those words: Patience and persistence.
When I was in my early 20’s, still in college, I learned to sail with my then-boyfriend. We quickly became obsessed with the thrill of ocean sailing and eventually the allure of traveling by sailboat: Cruising. I made an instant decision when he asked me to go cruising for an indefinite period of time, despite concurrently launching my career in Nursing. How could I say no?
To make that dream real, we both had to learn so many things and accomplish so many tasks; it took an immense commitment of time and energy. And ultimately, it was a tremendous risk. But I look back on those years living on a 38 foot sailboat, and the nearly 3 years of travel, as my great adventure and those experiences motivate me every day.
Think about it: Sailing from Southern California to Honolulu at the equivalent of five miles per hour with only two people on board. And that was just the start of the adventure! Every day took organization and cooperation. It took patience and persistence. And then, almost miraculously, we could see the immensely tall windward cliffs of Molokai. We excitedly made the turn towards our O’ahu destination, pulling into Ala Wai Boat Harbor on the 5th of July, to a round of fireworks someone had left over from the night before. Now that was magical.
Not every goal of mine has been an ocean crossing, but I have learned a lot about meeting challenges and I enjoy finding solutions to puzzles. I’ve had several careers and changes in life circumstances. Now my dream is to bring together my many interests related to mental, physical, and financial health to help you find your solutions…..while I’m on a break from another adventure!
And what made all the difference for me this time was working with my own coach. I wonder how different my life may have been if I had discovered coaching sooner. This time, that secret ingredient, coaching, gave me what I needed to make this dream real.
