Why do some women feel unfulfilled?

THE PROBLEM:
Many women are feeling dissatisfied and unfulfilled. They have bought an idea: if they're beautiful, earn enough money, have a perfect family, are CEO or a celebrity they will feel loved, successful, and happy.  

I know this isn't true because I have had the privilege of coaching hundreds of women, and many of them have achieved these types of goals. They're  financially secure, they have their family, some are CEO's for large corporations, and some are celebrities, making tons of money. What they all have in common: they all crave meaning and fulfillment and their accomplishments aren't satisfying that craving.

Experiencing fulfillment is something that money, a perfect body, or the love, attention, and approval of others doesn't provide.  

THE SOLUTION:
Being happy and fulfilled is a two-part problem, requiring a two-part solution. It's a spiritual and practical problem that requires a spiritual and practical solution, and you can't do one without the other.

The spiritual part of the problem: this is the belief that you're not enough - not good enough, not smart enough, not lovable. It's the reason why you're driven to work hard. You want to prove that you can be loved, you can achieve, you can be respected, you can be admired. But the victory is hollow because even if every other person in the world believes it, you still don't, and you won't until you do the work of healing this part of yourself. 

The practical part of the problem: because you've had these beliefs you've relied on external validation and accomplishments to bolster you and no amount of external validation will ever be enough.

If you're to experience true fulfillment, you're going to have to do the work of learning who you are and how to care for yourself. I'm not talking spa days and cocktails on the beach here. I'm talking about real, transformative work, where you learn about what makes you tick and how to care for yourself. ​
​
I'm not going to sugar-coat this, it's a journey, not an overnight fix, but I know it's possible, and I know the rewards are magnificent. Doing this work with a Life- Coach gives you a team-mate, someone who can show you the ropes and guide you through the tough stuff.
​
You're a smart woman who has managed to achieve great things in your life; this could be your greatest.
