As a professional woman, I know first hand the struggles of maintaining a sense of peace and serenity within the temple which is of sacred divineness - all the while tackling a chaotic world from a business standpoint. It's true, no matter how big our S is on our chest or how "super womanish" we have convinced ourselves to be, We are just as vulnerable in receiving emotional attacks just as the next woman however for the professional woman, business must go on. Correct? Professional women has made it apart of her curriculum to cover up her baggage just a tad bit better and a little bit more strategic than others and in doing so, the oh so savvy, tailored suit wearing woman begins to collect extra baggage on the way up the ladder of success only to come to a point of mental deterioration once her breaking point is reached.

Let it Go |
Here are just a few questions to confront yourself with when seeking mental stability or balance:
- Am I competing for something? If so, what is it that I am competing for? What is the prize? Is it worth putting my mental health in jeopardy?
- Do I have to force myself to take a break from work?
- I love what I do but does my work put my emotional health at risk?
- Do I work so much to bury myself and hide from a specific pain within myself?
- If I need someone to help me sort out internal issues, do I have resources to tap into? Do I have a support team set up for the greater of my good?
- Am I neglecting some aspect of taking care of myself? Whether it's committing to a hair appointment every 2 weeks or a good clean Brazilian wax; self care is extremely essential to the busy business woman.
Those are just a few questions that you would want to ask yourself. Once you reflect on your answers, be very truthful with yourself, and then proceed to pinpoint the areas in which you need help to maintain balance from a spiritual point of view.
For the business woman we understand that losing ourselves in our work can easily happen. That's the known part, but what can you do when you find yourself popping Tylenol after Ibuprofen after another? (or other synthetic pharmaceutical drugs) The first step is to identify that you are reaching a point of mental exhaustion. It's not a good thing to wait until you have reached that point - the name of the game is prevention thus becoming aware that you are traveling in that direction but before you fully arrive, your body will give you all the warnings you need, it is up to you to watch for the red flags.

I understand the value of investing in yourself and as a life coach, I want you to get the best out of your experience which includes your internal successes and peace of mind.
