Clarity, empowerment, authenticity…..a midlife change
So much of the life I’d built was incongruous with who I really was. Eight months ago I started on one of the most significant journeys of my life. I decided after 41 years to accept my sexuality and live an authentic life.
The first book I read, that a friend kindly gave me, was “A Life of Unlearning” by Anthony Venn-Brown. Once I began reading I could not put it down. This book touched me in a profound way. I related with Anthony’s story in so many ways. I was particular inspired by Anthony’s honesty and openness in the way that he bared his soul on the pages in front of me. It gave me the courage to be honest and open about my story. If Anthony could do it so could I.
After finishing the book I emailed Anthony to thank him for sharing his story. This opened a discussion which ultimately led to me beginning the “Dare to be Your Best” (DTBYB) coaching program. While I was focusing on the here and now challenges of my coming out journey, Anthony’s program helped me look at my life with a wider lens, enabling me to see what my ideal future looked like. Like a well-marked road map. Then we began working on the specific steps to make that a reality.
One of the most powerful experiences through the DTBYB program was to identify the values that underpin my life and to put that into a visual representation. For the first time in my life, I had a very clear picture of what those values where and how they impacted my life. It empowered me to evaluate all future decisions and actions through my values filter.
With Anthony as my coach I managed to navigate this very challenging road over the 12 weeks working together. At the end of DTBYB I can say that I have grown and expanded my understanding of myself and what motivates me. The life I’m living now looks very different to the way it was.
Anthony was a wonderful coach. I looked forward to have my coaching session every week. He was always present, encouraging and supportive. What most impressed me is how he shared from his own life and experiences but never once dictated any specific outcomes. I was making the choices that I knew were right for me.
Anthony I cannot thank you enough for journeying with me over the 12 weeks of DTBYB. This was definitely the best thing I could have done for myself at this very critical point in my life journey.
I highly recommend the DTBYB program to anyone that wants to find clarity and purpose and get a clear vision of where they are heading. This program will be one of the best investments you have ever made in your personal growth. It was for me.
Thanks again Anthony.
