In 2014, my life reached a breaking point.
I was struggling with deep depression, a marriage that was falling apart, and the aftermath of a twelve-year alcohol addiction I had only recently overcome. I had been to the emergency room twice within six weeks and was facing the possibility of a serious neurological illness. At the same time, I was caring for my young daughter and felt overwhelmed by fear, guilt, and despair.
At my lowest point, I could not see a way forward.
Then an old friend called.
Something he said caused me to see my life from a different perspective. In that moment, I decided to try an experiment: What would happen if I changed the thoughts I had been believing?
What began as an attempt to survive became a process of seeing clearly.
I began paying attention to the stories running through my mind and the beliefs that seemed to shape my experience of the world. Over time, it became clear that many of the struggles, disappointments, and repeating situations in my life were not random. They reflected patterns I had never learned to recognize.
As the years passed, I saw that these patterns were not limited to moments of crisis. They appeared in my relationships, my work, my decisions, and the quieter moments of everyday life. Again and again, life seemed to reflect something back to me that I had not yet been able to see.
What is not seen is often what is repeated.
This realization changed the course of my life.
Today, I guide individuals and leaders in recognizing the unconscious patterns shaping their experience so they can better understand why things happen the way they do and what becomes possible when those patterns are brought into awareness.
Our conversations are direct. Together, we look closely at what is happening, what may be contributing to it, and what changes when it is seen clearly.
The awakening continues.
