Kathy’s Story of Pain, Anxiety, and Victory

Welcome everyone to my story. I want to tell my story about what I’ve been through in the past and how I came full circle to enjoying the life that I have now. Now I help others who have been in my situation to release the pain and anxiety and feel good about their lives. You see, 25 years ago my life hit a bottom that I had no control over. I lost everything I had been working for in a matter of 2 years. I lost my home, business, cars, and relationships.

My Environment

All my life, I would attach myself to people, problems, and my environment to give me a sense of identity. I could not break free enough to know who I was or to explore career possibilities. Feelings of accomplishment and having a purpose were all out of my reach. I was so busy taking care of everyone else that I never stopped to look at who I was or what I needed in life.

I realized part of why my mind would bully me and put me down is because I learned from my dysfunctional family of origin to have no boundaries around my negative thinking. I grew up with a mean stepmother and a controlling dad who both worked 2 jobs just to live in a house with bamboo rugs and hand-me-down furniture and to support their alcohol addiction. My stepmother and dad were very critical and mean-spirited. This verbal abuse that I experienced distorted the thoughts in my mind about myself which translated to the way I felt inside. I felt abandoned and neglected. I had no self-confidence.

After the devastating losses my head was spinning and my emotions were all over the place. My heart was broken due to feeling like a failure and abandoned in my childhood. I felt defeated, insecure, and frustrated. I didn’t know what to do or where to turn. All I knew was my life had changed. It would never be the same again. Finally, when I got my head in the right place, I decided to make my life better regardless of what had happened.

My Victory begins….

I decided to move forward and continue my personal growth with the things I knew I could do. I still had things that I loved to do and that I hadn’t experienced yet. I wanted a business of my own, I wanted to dance again. I wanted to get an education, that I had neglected for so long.

During this shock and disappointment and feeling that I had nothing to lose and the guidance of my first coach I decided. “I would do whatever it took to get my life back and be able to support myself financially”. I had been utilizing my own personal growth methods since I was 16. Now I needed a new direction for my life. It’s amazing when you are at the bottom with seemingly no hope the new life and miracle show up.

I had home-schooled my children for 8 years. I loved teaching and learning new things so I decided the only way forward was to get a formal education myself.

That decision I made with the help of a coach changed my life forever. I went to college and put myself in therapy and continued getting different coaches.

One More Setback

Just as I began to regroup and feel a little better my dad passed away, my dad was my abuser and the person I looked up to. Have you ever struggled with anxiety and grief due to an abusive caregiver passing? I remember the day my dad passed away. I was right in the middle of getting my bachelor’s degree. I remember thinking “what’s my purpose now”?, and “can I get through this?” My dad’s passing affected me with much grief and anxiety. I remember thinking “what was my dad’s life for?” You see even though my dad was my abuser, I loved him dearly. Those kinds of mixed emotions can cause havoc in your brain. So, as a result, I experienced extreme grief and mixed emotions.

It took me two years to sort out those emotions. I felt trapped in grief and despair. I became antisocial due to the shame that arose from how I felt. I quit college and couldn’t function. Even though I stopped everything because of the grief and disappointment I experienced, working toward getting the life I wanted was a priority. I remember the day I told someone I trusted that I was suicidal, and a sheriff showed up at my door to do a suicide check. That felt very scary, but I was naive. Since that time in my journey, I have learned tools for communication and to help manage the grieving process.

My passion grew to help others navigate through trying times.

Once I made the decision to make the changes I needed to make, life was good again. I felt challenged again and I love feeling challenged. I had coaches and therapists to guide me along the path to my new journey. If it had not been for them, I’m not sure if I would have made it. I also began to get recovery from a dysfunctional family by going to meetings on a regular basis. Getting the support really helped me to resolve the childhood issues that I had ignored for so many years while trying to please others.

I figured out that my value no longer was not metered by what happened to me in my childhood. I was able to move forward on a successful journey of getting my education starting with a GED. Then moving on to a bachelor’s degree and then to a master’s degree. I also began film acting a lifelong dream by hiring an acting coach for 5 years and being in some roles. I began dancing again and loved being on the dance floor. My relationship with my children and my spouse healed and improved.

Got Help for the Journey

I was helped by so many people, coaches, programs, sponsors, and motivators. I was introduced and mentored by powerful positive mentors. If I could do all that after such a tragedy you can too. Once healing takes place and you realize you deserve good things to be in your life they show up. I have a burning passion to see others accomplish their dreams and goals as I have experienced mine. I know the road to happiness and success and want to take others on the journey to help them improve their lives.

I continued in my psychotherapy and getting coached by several coaches and mentors. As I did the personal growth, I began to achieve what I always wanted. I began to feel accepted and secure in who I am as a person. When your healing and growth bring you to a place of wholeness, you believe you deserve positive things to come to you, then you attract them.

I am free from the guilt and shame that come along with the lack of self-confidence that is created from abuse. Now I help women who feel worried & anxious about their life purpose, gain self-confidence so that they can fast-track to financial independence.
