EXAMPLES OF HOW IT WORKS

“I Have a Book Brenda” – [Courage to Begin]

“Brenda” is a colleague. She knew she wanted to write a book, but just wasn’t sure where to begin or what to write about. She had many ideas but wasn’t sure what path to take and didn’t know what was “the right thing to do”. We set up several sessions where we did two things: One session was for brainstorming and getting to her “why”… why she wanted to write and what was on her heart to say. The other scheduled sessions were for accountability. She needed a buddy. I gave her “homework” and exercises toward getting the book started and she was off to the races! She simply needed courage to begin and a friend to let her know she was on the right path.

“Voice-Over Vanessa” – [Clarity]

“Vanessa” found me on LinkedIN. She contacted me regarding copy writing and wanted to brainstorm together on how to get business. We held a few sessions and while she was looking for another way to make some money, turns out she already had a business in voice over work, but she wasn’t feeling super confident about it. She lived in a smaller market and it just wasn’t a popular thing people wanted where she lived. I told her about my friends who were doing the work here in LA, what they did to build themselves and that she should just keep going and do the darn thing. She felt encouraged and refreshed to give it another go and she did!

“Car Shop Patty – [Purpose in Life]

I was a passenger with my Uber driver, “Patty”. After a few moments in the car, I could sense something was wrong. I asked a few questions and discovered that she was at a crossroads and was feeling distress. She mentioned she was in school, I think to be a nurse, and how she continually started and stopped taking classes. It was stressing her out because she just couldn’t finish school. I said, “Why is it important to finish? It doesn’t sound like you want to be in school.” She started to cry and said, “You’re right, I don’t.” It was her family and friends who were pressuring her to finish. What she really wanted to do was go back to being a mechanic. She had a shop (I think that was it) and she had left it to go to school, but her passion was being a mechanic. I told her to find a way to get back to that and forget school — it cost too much for her, she didn’t like studying, why do it? Once she gave herself permission to think that she could do what *she* wanted, her entire spirit lifted. This all happened during a 20 minute ride. She thanked me, I hugged her and I still send her good thoughts wherever she is in this world right now.

Marry Me Martin – [Relationships & Goals]

Another driver, “Martin”, was having a very tough time because he was driving to make extra money to send to his parents in another country; I think it was China. This story was tricky. His fiance’ was living with his parents because one of his parents needed live-in help. He needed to stay in the US to run his day job company and then also make money driving in order to take care of them all, so he couldn’t be there himself. The conversation started with him wondering if he should get married or not. I don’t think he intended to tell me his full life story, but once he started talking, he was able to see that he did want to get married and he loved his fiance’, but he didn’t like the way things were and he felt trapped. We didn’t solve this one in our short ride, but, he too felt lifted after our chat and I thanked him for sharing with me.
