I recently had a most interesting conversation. It all began at a networking event. We were given the topic:
Joy, Passion + Purpose
And I was asked:
“What, beyond the obvious, does being The Happiness Coach mean?”
(In case you’ve not up to date with this particular incarnation. I am the self-proclaimed Queen of Fabulocity and The Happiness Coach!)
Beyond the obvious? Hmmm… pondering away and thinking on my feet. Then, like a bolt of lightening, I responded
“That’s it, I’m the Happiness Coach! I coach people to happiness. It is the obvious.”
Oh dear, we looked at each other and I felt I had to fill in the blanks:
“I teach people how to get from dreary to dazzling.”
Then I found myself explaining away…
“I’m a Licensed Hypnotherapist, a retired Naturopath and an expert in Complementary and Alternative Medicine (phew!) And I bring all that into play when I do coaching or consulting with people.”
I was on a roll! Yeah baby!
“We are not merely the products of our childhood experiences. Nor are we victims! Of our family, of the state, of the marketing we are fed daily. We are amazing, brilliant spirits who are having a human experience. And we are so much more than the products of our pain.”
“We can take charge and take control of our lives. And we can make choices that change our lives from sad to happy; from dreary to dazzling. Because the more we look outsides ourselves to be happy, the less happy, the sadder we become. Everything We Do, Think, Feel, Say is a Choice. So it all comes from within. At some level we choose. We can all learn to make better choices for us.”
So, this is what it looks like to my clients:
- Gain inner peace. Therefore learning to face life with confidence and calm
- Sleeping like babies. No more busy brain and broken sleep
- Look and feel younger (I was 55 when I originally wrote this blog post, and now I’m having a quick update at 62. And I’m even more fabulous. So, yes, you can be fabulous too!)
- Feel more healthy and energetic
- Have cleared out the crap and brought magic back into their lives
- Found their spiritual connection
- Returned to common sense, gratitude and laughter
- Face life challenges with ease and joy
- Discovered a beautiful, positive outlook on life and self
- Given themselves permission to focus on self ~ Me First Darling!
So, my darlings, in a nutshell, being the Happiness Coach, I…
“help people turn their lives from dreary to dazzling.
help people find their joy, passion and purpose in life.
and I help people return to happiness.”
“And so it is: I come up with game plans, coach and teach, so that people can get happy and healthy.”
We had a good giggle. There really isn’t much beyond the happiness.
Choose Happy and find your joy, passion and purpose.
[…] Thanks to my teacher Stuart Wilde for this one. And you can change it up to anything that’s meaningful to you. But give it a whirl for 21 days and let me know how it’s working for you. Because it will! Try it. What have you got to lose? Oh yes, the Negative Nellies. […]
