The Awakening

I was pacing back and forth, trying to decide to call my ex-boyfriend or not. I had enrolled myself in this personal growth development course that threw my life into the matrix.  I had an awakening.  I could literally hear other’s people’s underlying intentions and what stopped them, and I could hear my own. 

I thought, If I wanted health-loving relationships, it had to start with me first. I need to take responsibility for my part. No blaming. No shaming. 

My ex and I sat down for coffee, talked, and I didn’t throw up even though it felt like it, but it was the first time I felt free from my angry past. I no longer was attached to my anger towards him. At the end of that coffee meeting I knew my love life changed.

I wanted more. 

Afterward, I called my good friend, and I told her what happened, and she said, “Good! Now buy this book called “Calling in “the one.” because you are ready for love now. Please don’t ask me questions. Just read the book.” 

I had another awakening while reading this book.

I became obsessed with CITO and the author. It was the first time I could see how holding on to my resentments, my painful patterns with my past relationships, parents, and old friends, kept my love life a mess and attracted me to emotionally unavailable people. It was a reflection of me. 

I quickly formed a CITO reading group. There were three of us. During the 3rd or 4th weeks, I helped a friend have a breakthrough with her love life. At this point, I had gained this ability to connect the dots from the past, and I can connect people’s behavior to the past, which is affecting the future now. 

One day, I stopped my friend, and I asked her one single question. I didn’t know why this question came to me, and it did. At this point, my instincts and intuition go stronger. I had asked my friend, “What do you need your ex to stay to you to let you go?” She broke down crying.  I was freaking out because we are in public, and she was crying hysterically.  Through her tears, she looked at me and said, “This is your gift. You are a Coach. You need to look into this and pursue it.”

That weekend, I asked the universe. “If this is what I meant to do, then show me.”

 A week later, I was decluttering my bookshelf, and in the book, the life-changing magic of tidying up, Marie kondo says, whatever is left on your bookshelf, that is what you were meant to do. So, when I looked at my bookshelf, all the books were on love, relationships, business, and how to change your life. Suddenly, my life started flashing before me. I could see how my life had been preparing me for this moment.

I ran to my computer. I looked up the author of Calling in the one. As soon as I entered her name in the google search, I saw an ad she had posted.

I had never seen this ad before that day. After that, I looked up this woman hundreds of times, and I never knew she trained people until this moment. 

I clicked on the ad, read the program’s descriptions, and broke down crying. And I said to myself, “This is what I meant to do.” I felt it all over my body.” So I applied for the program, and I got in. I got a partial scholarship, and the rest is history, and I never looked back.  And now, she reached out to me, and she wants to mentor me and help me grow my business starting in September.

To disrupt my client’s love life, I had to disrupt my own love life, and that’s how I became the coach that I am. Helping others build juicy love. – JA
