I am a Professional Empowerment Coach. I received my Certification from
the Institute of Profession Empowerment Coaching(IPEC) in Manalapan, New Jersey. The IPEC program is one of sixteen schools
accredited by the International Coach Federation(ICF). The ICF is the governing body for professional coaches which maintains
standards and ethical guidelines.
For me life is a process of recovering my SELF/my
True Identity and that is exactly what I have been practicing for the past 45 years. The last eight
of those years has been from a space of awareness.
Six years ago as a gay man at the age of 37, I hit a bottom which was
so low I thought I would not survive. I lost my home, my partner and my business was on its final legs. I had no clue of what
a feeling was and the concept of my Inner Source/SELF or Divinity was a joke. I was Spiritually,
Emotionally, Mentally, Physically and Financially lost.
It was at this point, the lowest point in my life, that I heard
a faint Voice from deep within me that said "you are either going to do things differently or
you are going to die."
I do not know how but in hind sight I gathered the Courage to
admit I needed help on my JOURNEY. I decided to begin the process of recovering my TRUE Nature
and I chose to turn my self inflicted living hell into what had to be a better life.
The purpose for me is to return to my Natural State/SELF
and allow my ESSENCE to live abundantly through me in the physical world. "ONENESS."
This is a strenuous process and it is what I have chosen for myself.
I want to consistently have my actions match my word which have been aligned first with who I truly am "LOVE".
Do I do it perfectly? NO. It is a process. At times the struggle feels
impossible and there are times which are now filled with bliss. I simply try to do my best each moment and be aware of where
I am.
Along the way I approach myself with compassion and understanding. I
listen to myself without trying to fix anything. After I have sat with and moved through the feelings that come
up, I ask myself what it is I want. I then encourage and support myself in taking the actions necessary
to create it. I observe what takes place and how it feels and I use these messages to serve me in moving forward.
I reward myself for walking through my fears with courage and celebrate
my successes. My successes are each step I take.
The result is being able to shine in the world and let people know who
I Truly AM as well as to let others know that I know who THEY Truly ARE. When I stumble
and forget I am able to hold myself gently, dust myself off and get back out there.
I no longer live in a box. I am now able to create moments that feel
free, expansive and filled with joy.
The process of determining who is the best Coach for you is a difficult
one; however, the best indication is to feel what is going on inside your body. Those feelings will guide you to clarity.
Feelings will almost always guide you to what is right for you.
Continue your journey in a safe place. Call
me and begin consciously creating in your life.
