Is This What Is Possible On The "Other Side"?
I was sharing with one of my amazing coaching clients my plans for the summer and she said:
“Wow… is this what is possible on the other side?”
And I remember pausing, smiling and responding…
“Yes… I guess one of the many possibilities”
And we laughed about it
But it got me reflecting…
A year ago, when I was still knee-deep in the corporate life, I could not imagine a summer like this could be possible
It was not something I would even consider dreaming about because it was outside of my perceived “realm of possibilities”
So you may be wondering… what exactly am I doing this summer lol?
I will be in Greece for more than one month!
Going to Greece has been in our bucket list for a long time, but this trip is way beyond that
I remember back in November when I was doing a leadership course on quantum creation, we spent some time envisioning our hearts and souls’ desires coming to life
(for context this happened a couple months after leaving Corporate in September to follow my calling)
I remember seeing and experiencing things so vividly
I was traveling with my family to ancient sacred sites… we were sailing around Greece…
I remember feeling the wind, the smells and the sun on my face as we saw the Greek architecture of the islands and experienced the most magnificent sunset
I was enjoying life to the fullest in peace, joy, freedom, love and abundance as we explored the world together... wow it felt so amazing!
I was also attending a spiritual women’s leadership retreat with the most incredible coaches and sisters I could imagine, going even deeper in my leadership ascension and mission embodiment journey
I was saying YES to myself, to life and to my mission in the biggest and most delicious ways possible!
I remember tears streaming down my face during this quantum journey because everything felt so real, so beautiful, so activating
I experienced this back in November… and it wasn’t until my client reflected that question back to me that I stopped to actually realize…
Oh my goodness!! I am going to be actually living and experiencing THIS SUMMER all that I had envisioned last November!
For the first two weeks, we will be exploring Greece together as a family
My daughter who is 12 years old is REALLY into Greek Mythology and slightly obsessed with all things Percy Jackson
So I found a 7 Day Percy Jackson inspired Greece Tour designed for families and kids (WHAT?!!!)
Then we added a few days to explore Crete, Mykonos and Santorini on our own which will include two different sailings around the islands (just like I envisioned a few months back!! Oh my heart!!)
Then, my husband and daughter will fly back to the US for their own daddy-daughter adventures…
Andddd… I will fly to another island in Greece for a TWO WEEK spiritual leadership retreat with my two favorite coaches!
Wow, I don’t think all of this has fully sunk in yet haha
We leave this weekend, soon after my daughter’s Elementary School Graduation so I need to start packing soon lol
So why am I sharing all this?

You see… not too long ago I was feeling really stuck in Corporate
My heart and soul were calling me towards a new chapter, but I was feeling so much fear, doubt and worry that I felt I was paralyzed… stuck in a tight knot!
Things started to change when I connected with other women who had left corporate to pursue their coaching calling and were living a financially abundant life
They illuminated potential paths to new possibilities for me
They showed me that it was possible to leave corporate and not only make as much money, but to actually make more money being a coach while feeling lit up living a life of greater meaning, fulfillment and impact
I remember leaving each Zoom call with these amazing women coaches feeling so much lightness and spaciousness inside… grateful that my heart was feeling awake and alive again
“So you are saying there is a chance” lol
You see one of the core limiting beliefs that was keeping me stuck in Corporate was
“I can only be financially supported and successful if I stay in Corporate”
“I can’t follow my calling AND be financially successful at the same time”
Corporate meant financial stability and success
Following my calling meant financial risk and sacrifice
I didn’t really believe that I could do good and live an abundant life
This was a FALSE limiting belief that kept me feeling stuck for a while
Because deep down I wanted to follow my heart, my calling, my mission AND be abundantly successful
I didn’t want to compromise or sacrifice, NO… I wanted BOTH!
The mission AND the abundance!
Those amazing women I met helped me to see that it was possible
That were was another way
So today as I am preparing and packing for my amazing month in Greece, I wanted to share this with you…
Because a year ago I could not have imagined or dreamed that this was possible
My intention for myself as I prepare for the trip is to recode my mind, heart, body and soul with new possibilities
The possibilities of living a life filled with peace, joy, freedom, fulfillment, meaning, impact AND ABUNDANCE
And as I approach the very edges of my current sphere of possibilities…
Instead of constricting or retracting back with the little voice that may sneak in to say “maybe this is too good to be true”…
I am choosing to open up my heart even wider, to allow, to receive, to experience even more… more please
I am ready to be, live and lead FULLY
I can feel it all unfolding and I am a YES
My deepest intention as I share this with you is for all of us to open up our hearts and minds even further to new possibilities
To new possibilities beyond our wildest dreams
