I grew up in a lower middle class family with limited financial means. In spite of that, my parents never let anything come in my way to get higher education to fulfill my dreams. 

I dreamed of having a romantic partner. So when I fell in love with my now husband and married him, I felt I was destined for a happily ever after. 

Except things did not go as planned.

Don’t get me wrong - there were no major setbacks. In fact, the opposite was true.

I created everything I wanted - incredible professional success, leadership roles my peers could only dream of, a fat pay cheque, a husband who loved me immensely, a healthy son, a great set of friends and extended family. 

And yet.. I felt this continuous instability in my life.

I felt confident and accomplished sometime while at other times, I felt conflicted, emotionally drained, helpless, powerless and dependent on others to even feel normal.

I couldn’t understand this emotional instability ....this dissonance

And then one weekend in 2018, as I was lying on my bed surfing YouTube, I found a video of a woman being coached. In that 12 minute 59 seconds long video, the coach helped that woman make sense of her emotions, pin point exactly what her problem was, made her feel powerful, in control and helped her gain clarity.

That moment I knew this coach can help me find the clarity and stability I was so desperate for

That coach was Brooke Castillo, the founder of Life coach school where I went on to do my life coaching certification.
