Years of antidepressants kept me from feeling highs or lows. I was numb. Very few people knew my pain and burden because I kept it hidden, thinking it was just something I needed to deal with on my own. Ten years into this very difficult challenge, I told my doctor I was ready to see what was really behind the depression…and if it meant I needed to stay on anti-depressants, then I would. He put me on the path to understand the body-brain connection and how to nurture my body’s ability to heal.

About 18 months into this, my husband and I were introduced to mindset. I didn’t even know mindset was a thing! We hired a coach and began to practice intentional creation. Now my reality really began to shift. My need for antidepressants diminished and then disappeared. I began to find myself again. My ability to express the inspiration and wisdom inside me was restored. My spirit began to thrive. I began to unravel the subconscious lies that were creating results I did not want.

The benefits of this internal shift became even more evident as our children grew older and my husband and I experienced some parenting challenges. We were able to move through the challenges with clarity. This clarity has created an emotional resilience that continues today to protect me from going into a tailspin, no matter what challenge I may be facing. 

My ability to face my fears, replace self-sabotage, and embrace my worth has changed my ability to move through obstacles and thrive!
