Life has dealt me numerous life challenges. Over time I made a choice to see these challenges as gifts, as priceless learnings. Right in the core, right in the heart of every challenge I have faced, there has been priceless gifts to appreciate, to be thankful for. There is a diamond, a gem, and stillness within every challenge.
How do you see your challenges?
Is it time to change your perspective?
Are fears holding you back from living the purposeful life you desire?
I Deliver Hope To Others
Like many people, Nicola was fearful of speaking in public.
In fact she considers herself an introvert and found she rarely had an opinion about anything. She thought she had found her path until numerous wake-up calls and her deep desire made her stop. She needed to learn to breathe and amongst other things, defeated her fears, and own her power. Now it was time for her to share her messages with the world.
The one of the most transformational moments in her life was when her son near death experience from contracting pneumococcal meningitis. Thomas, now 24, is living independently from Nicola with 24/7 care. He has numerous severe complex challenges including being non-verbal yet he has his own internet business.
