Despair & Discontent

My story as to the journey that has brought me to this season in my life:

Since the age of 22, I was privileged to be a wife & homemaker. As our 3 sons came along, I was able to be a stay-at-home mom; a privilege beyond words. My marriage of 20 years was never a happy one, but when my husband suddenly announced he was divorcing me, we were all shocked & devastated. Everything was turned upside down for each of us.  I truly experienced what it is to be heartbroken…..to know what it feels like when your heart is breaking.  To know what it feels like to experience a family being ripped apart; like fabric torn to shreds.

Not long after this tragic event, I found myself facing an “empty nest”.  The boys were moving on to re-create their lives.  I didn’t have a college diploma nor any career to fall back on.  I was blessed & grateful to have some alimony monies to sustain me.

I’ve never been one to sit back & expect life to come to me, so I tried my hand at many things with full gusto! I established a design business fabricating home décor for clients & licensed designers.  I operated 2 antique booths in a high-end antique mall.  I established a real estate investment company with a friend & partner.  I worked hard in a few multi-level marketing companies & did rather well for a while. Amidst all of these endeavors, the most valuable thing I learned about myself is that I had quite an entrepreneurial spirit & a higher than average risk-factor tolerance.  Both of which serve me well to this day.

Through all of this transition of trying to reinvent Julie, I deliberately chose to enjoy life.  My sons, & now their wives & my 7 grandchildren & I have FABULOUS relationships for which I am eternally grateful.  I purposed to keep myself in personal development arenas.  Life was good.  But deep down I felt I was “drifting out to sea without a rudder, oars or sails”.  My finances were diminishing.  I still couldn’t say I had a real career.  I was getting older……… I know now that all I was endeavoring to accomplish was from “push” energy. Deep down I was exhausted, frustrated & unfulfilled.

Decision

About 6 years ago, I was “done”!  I wasn’t going to try this that & the other any longer. I KNEW in the core of my being that there HAD to be a concrete PURPOSE for WHY God bothered to create me & put me on this earth.  If I could just KNOW what my purpose IS, there would be no stopping me.  The holy scriptures say, “My people perish for lack of vision.”  I was perishing.  I had no true “vision”.  I believe God only creates with intention; that none of us just came off the grand assembly line in the sky like some automated inventory. I firmly believe that if a person is living their Purpose, then these are the “rivers of living water” that flow out of us as the holy scriptures say; the “abundant life” Jesus spoke about.

Because I was sincerely & actively seeking, yet no longer willing to “experiment” with this, that & the other, I was ready to ask the quality questions of myself.  Scripture also says, “You have not because you ask not.”  And, “Seek Me with all of your heart & you will find Me.”

Discovery

Have you heard the phrase, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.”?  Well, that’s exactly what happened for me.  I continued in the arena of personal development, listening to & watching teachers & scientists such as Dr. Joe Dispenza of ‘What the Bleep. Down the Rabbit Hole’ movie, Dr. Bruce Lipton, the ground-breaking epigeneticist, John Assaraf of ‘Neurogym’, Natalie Ledwell of ‘Mind Movies’, etc. when through time, Mary Morrissey’s DreamBuilder’s Live came across my “radar”.  Mary promises that if you spend 3 days with her at this event, you will leave with a dream.  If you don’t have one, you’ll leave with one.  If you already have one, you’ll leave with practical instruction as to how to develop & manifest it.

Mary was true to her promise.  I had no dream/s.  I didn’t even know how to dream.  Whatever dreams I may have allowed myself had been shattered like glass or dissolved like an Alka Selzer with no fizz!  But, by the end of that 3 day weekend, I had instruction AND permission to dream once again; something I hadn’t done since childhood.  I let myself feel hope & excitement that I hadn’t felt for years.  I let myself imagine without limitation.  I let myself plumb the depths of my heart, which in truth, I’ve found to be my Purpose.  Purpose with a capitol ‘P’.

Dream Realized

Fast forward:  I placed myself under Mary Morrissey’s tutelage for an intensive year, learned to ask quality questions of myself, learned that the Universe has no lack & is abundant by nature, that I can access anything through the power of my mind, that my perception determines my experience, learned how to befriend fear; I could go on & on.  Basically, I’ve changed my thoughts, my words, & consequently my life.  I incorporate these principles (truths that change with neither time nor circumstance) daily & see profound results almost daily.

I discovered that I would LOVE to be a teacher-speaker-coach like Mary, helping others like myself find, create, develop & live their passions, know their Purpose, live the life they LOVE!  I’ve become just that.  Today, I am a DreamBuilder Life Coach, an Emotion Code Practitioner with side businesses that support these careers.  Careers!  I now have bonafide, active, viable, profitable careers!  I LOVE MY LIFE!!!  And I LOVE seeing other people’s lives change before my eyes just as mine has.

As a side note, when you know to live a principally centered life, you’ll find it creates a sort of domino effect in every area of your life.  The transformational principles that I teach my clients are helping them in any & every kind of circumstance; to realize their dreams; vocationally, relationally, in health & well-being, & with time & money freedom.  These are laws that the Infinite has set in place.  Our job as co-creators, is to learn to become AWARE of the infinite possibilities that wait in the quantum realm for our activation.  HOW to do this is a science, a proven & tested process of transformation that is taught within a foundation of support.  In a nutshell, this is what I do for my clients………the same that was done for me.  I wake up every day knowing, feeling & living my purpose.  I LOVE MY LIFE!!

I would be overjoyed & honored to help you in this critical journey of life…….YOURS!!
