How The Becoming U Method™ was Born...

---

On the outside, I was a successful and dynamic leader. But on the inside - nothing could have been farther from the truth. 

I remember getting up every morning and preparing myself for the day - it felt like I was going into battle. I had to be ready to take on anything that came my way. It was given to me, I handled it , and I handled it well! 

That was my superpower.

The reality was, I was living in 2 worlds that no one could see or understand. I managed to keep all the balls in the air until one day… I just couldn’t anymore.

It was January 2011 and I had 3 major challenging life events happen all at the same time. Even while my life crumbled around me, I still had to show up everyday handling every big and little thing that came my way, keeping it all together for the team, myself and everyone else - making sure that everyone thought that I was fine. And I was - until I wasn’t.

My life and career still looked shiny on the outside but the truth was I felt so lost, alone and confused. I questioned everything. My job. My purpose.  I felt all alone and in so much emotional distress.

And then that’s when I really hit a wall. I just couldn’t do it anymore. I broke down sobbing, on my knees, screaming at God, alone in my apartment, in horrible grief over my life, or more importantly I should say what I thought my life should be. And that night - my life changed forever. 

I crashed… and then I woke up! 

Not just literally, but, also consciously.

I knew there had to be a better way. Living like this, feeling so out of alignment and like I was constantly pretending to everyone in my life - it was no longer an option. 

And so began my journey with my own coaches and mentors who showed up exactly when I needed them. 

I learned that even though I was feeling broken and lost that THIS turmoil was actually what would lead me to the next better version of myself and life. 

That as I started to put the pieces of my life back together- I could do it in a way that banished the two worlds I had been living in. I would stop hiding behind the shiny success and finally feel on the inside the way I’d always wanted to feel.

Under the guidance of my mentors, I started implementing key strategies into my life that would help me heal, grow and evolve into the highest version of myself. 

I discovered that when I started taking leadership of my own life, the inner confidence to show up in my full truth, purpose and identity without wavering, shifted and transformed my inner story, which then shifted how I outwardly led my life. 

And it not only changed how I led my personal life, it enhanced leadership in my professional life as well. 

The battle had ended. The silent internal struggle was lifted and I finally felt as powerful on the inside as I was perceived on the outside. 

I had figured it out. 

And I knew that I had to help make sure no one else went through the same struggle that I did - and The Becoming U Method™ was born!
