I'm Rachel, a Certified Life Coach. I can help!
Our teenager has arthritis. It's kept her out of swimming for 2 years.
When, after some improvement in her joints this year, we put her back in the pool, I watched her glide through the water. And then she stopped, as if she was stuck. She came up frantically out of the water, struggling, looking for me, “Mom! I can’t breathe underwater!”
My thought was this: “Of course you can’t breathe underwater. But can you move forward underwater, until you can come up for air?”
I saw a lesson that I, myself, needed to hear. Sometimes I feel so “underwater”. An exhausting to-do list or the pressures of family or work or my health. Just circumstances, right? And they are all around me. I resist it, and I allow myself to get stuck in it.
What if I were to learn to accept the "water", and accept myself in the water, and move forward in the water, until I am eventually able to come up for air. And then, when I do come up for air,
I might see that I am on the other side of the pool.

Coaching is like a workout for your mind. It will rock your world. It will make you laugh, and it will make you cry. It's real and vulnerable and honest. It's direct and firm while still being kind and loving. I’ve yet to find anything that makes me feel more alive than getting coached."

"Life Coaching has helped me to increase my confidence. It’s helped me to understand that life is uncomfortable and that’s OK - I’m having a human experience. It’s helped me understand my feelings and not be so judgmental of them. It’s shown me places in my life where I’m not free, or where I have insecurities, so that I can work on those things and really experience life and not be afraid anymore. I’m now in control of my life whereas before it was dictated by circumstances."
