I was suddenly hurtling down the hill face down!
My precious helmet provided a crucial one-inch space between my face and the pavement I could see whizzing past.
My bike had literally broken apart right out from under me during my commute ride. This moment changed everything. I suffered a mild traumatic brain injury. This moment, and the healing afterward, was my wake-up call and my catalyst. Something HAD to change in my life. My health, my very life, depended on it.
Have you ever found yourself in a moment like this? A crossroads where you just knew you had a vital decision to make that would impact you hugely no matter what you chose?
If someone had asked me 10 years ago what I would be doing in 2024, I could never have guessed that I would be a full-time financial coach helping thousands of people shift their energy, processes, and impact around money.
A money coach is not all that I am, but it’s a huge part of the impact that I now know I am here to make.
I’m sharing the story of how I became a full-time financial coach in this week’s episode of Profit for Joy® TV!
We’ll cover:
- How I became a financial coach
- Why financial coaching matters
- How you might make an impact
