Reflection + Unshakable Joy, Passion and Inspiration (I Want YOU to Have it Too!)

October has been a month full of reflection for me. I feel as if a season of my life is coming to a close and I’m filled with so much gratitude for everything I’ve experienced.

Three years ago…

My boyfriend and I boarded a plane for Hawaii. We wanted to be near the water and were ready to start our own design business. So we sold all our things, stored the items we couldn’t live without, gave notice at our jobs and made the leap.

This month, we’re celebrating three years of being in business. It’s been quite the journey, with many ups and downs, obstacles, overdrawn bank accounts and a good bit of tears! But three years later? I’m proud to say that our little business is really beginning to thrive. We’ve just launched a brand new website and are refocusing our business model to better serve our clients and target audience.

One year ago…

I entered a contest on Marie Forleo’s site. While I didn’t win the grand prize, I did win a free ticket to her amazing Rich Happy and Hot Live event in New York. I had no money, but the universe (and my amazing family) conspired to support me. That weekend changed my life. Not only did the event feed my soul, give me the tools I needed to grow my business and connect me to some amazing friends, it was the catalyst for me to join Marie’s year long mastermind program.

For the last 10 months, I’ve been traveling to different parts of the country (and mexico!) to mastermind with 20 other passionate, supportive and intelligent female entrepreneurs.

I spent this past weekend in New York with my best friend and my mastermind ladies for my second Rich Happy and Hot Live experience. What a difference a year filled with travel, personal transformation, coaching and the support of like-minded ladies can make.

I sat on stage this year and shared my experience. This alone is a huge indicator of the personal growth I’ve experienced. The fact that I was calm, steady and present is phenomenal! I spoke to an audience of 300 people and shared the following (in so many words):

So many times in my life I’ve thought to myself, “I’m not built to be a happy person.” That life would always be a struggle and I would always be dealing with some level of depression. After this past year, and primarily in the past month, I’ve experienced a huge shift. I have never, in my entire life, felt so SOLID in myself. I feel so much joy, inspiration and passion bubbling up from deep inside of me, something I never thought I would experience. And I’ve had obstacles. I’ve had upsets… but I feel absolutely unshakable.

So, what does this have to do with you?

I’ve learned so much in the past year, personally and professionally… this unshakable joy, the clarity, passion and inspiration I’m experiencing, and the ability to be so SOLID in who I am and what I’m doing in this world, I want you to have this too.

Better yet, I KNOW you can have this and I have the tools to help.

I’m in the process of developing some amazing products and programs for 2012 and I need your help. In order for me to create the best solution for you, and to continue providing you with free, transformational content on this site, I need you to answer a few quick questions:

1) What are the three biggest pain points in your life? Is it your romantic relationship? A lack of support in your life? An unfulfilling career? No sense of direction? Please share as much detail as possible so that I can create the best content for YOU.

2) What kind of products or programs would you love to see me create and why? If I could provide you with the absolute ideal solution, what would it look like? What would it include and cost? Don’t limit yourself here… Would it involve coaching? For how long? What methods would you love content to be delivered? ANYTHING is possible, and I want to know how I can BEST serve YOU.

3) What are your burning issues or questions? I would love for you to send me any questions or problems that you’re struggling with so that I can address them here on my blog. Send as many as you’d like (they can be about anything in your life that you need support with)!
