For nearly three decades, I dedicated my life to a corporate career, where I thrived in a fast-paced environment yet often felt a sense of emptiness. I felt unappreciated and undervalued and perhaps some of the readers can relate to those feelings. To say that I gave my all to my career is an understatement. I sacrificed my mental, emotional, and physical health to ensure that our employees were paid timely and accurately, that the service offices and my team felt supported, and all while completely transforming technology. But I wasn’t the only one that suffered from my commitment to “getting the job done”, My family and friends suffered as well. My work life balance was completely off kilter. I was putting in 60–70+ hour work weeks for several years, taking time away from the people that “actually” consider me an asset and then a mere 15 minute call joined by 100 or so of my colleagues to end our careers.

However, this post is not to bash my “previous employer “, it is simply to say… Always put yourself first! Take your breaks, use your PTO and clock out at your scheduled time. Going Above and Beyond WILL NOT prevent this from happening to you.

As for my personal experience upon hearing my career was over…I cried uncontrollably for two days straight, but as the turn of events began to sink in, I realized my tears weren’t for the company at all, hell, they weren’t even for me. My tears were for the offices I supported, the colleagues that depended on me, the projects left incomplete, the training sessions I promised to give. So many people will be impacted… And it’s MY fault!

Screeeeeeeeeech…. “What the actual fuck am I thinking?” Yes, they will be impacted, but that has NOTHING to do with me!

Which brings me to my next point, I had known for a while that I wasn’t happy anymore. That my job didn’t bring me the same type of fulfillment it once had… But my commitment and dedication to my work and my colleagues, had me realizing I would never have chosen to leave on my own. A couple months prior to being let go, I even expressed a possible midlife crisis, quit everything, convert a van and travel the country….I suppose the Universe, God, or maybe my mom, listened and took away that burden for me to choose.

So, here I am, unemployed, mentally and emotionally damaged, overweight and single. Lol. Man, I’ve got a lot of things going for me, right?

The positive side of my not so positive life experiences with family addiction, the struggles of single motherhood, and my own battles with anxiety and depression…was that this all created a backdrop of resilience. While these challenges were daunting, they also became the foundation for my transformation.

The moment I unexpectedly lost my job was not just a professional setback; it was a profound wake-up call. It forced me to confront my life’s direction and reevaluate what truly mattered. In that moment of uncertainty, I recognized an opportunity for growth and change.

A Journey of Self-Discovery

The passing of my mother was a significant turning point that deepened my desire to seek a life of fulfillment and purpose. Her loss pushed me to pursue a path that aligned with my values and passions. I began exploring the realms of life coaching and holistic healing, driven by a desire to help others navigate their own journeys of transformation.

I immersed myself in education, earning multiple Master Coach certifications in Life Coaching, Mindfulness, Spirituality, and Mindset coaching plus many other niche certifications. Additionally, I became a Level 2 certified Reiki practitioner, embracing the healing power of energy and nature. Each step I took was not just an addition to my qualifications but a personal journey toward understanding the transformative power of healing.

Connecting with Nature and Self

Transitioning into holistic healing opened my eyes to the incredible benefits of connecting with nature and nurturing oneself. I discovered that healing is not just about addressing the mind or body in isolation; it’s about fostering harmony between the two. This realization has become a cornerstone of my practice at Savage Serenity.

I am passionate about guiding others to tap into their inner strength and resilience. Through various holistic techniques, my goal is to help thousands of clients worldwide to discover the tools they need to thrive. Everyone has the potential to heal and lead fulfilling lives, and I am here to support that journey.
