From overwhelmed single mom to organized leader and mentor

Before this program I was overwhelmed most of the time being all by myself in a foreign land to support my kids. Learning to lead people that I know it’s my purpose but I was all over. I was only grade 6 , but did all the hard work and experience that brought me in Canada to Philippines but leading people while mentoring and overseeing dealing emotional rollercoaster while facing my own childhood traumas was difficult. My health and fitness wasn’t good with bad habits and it’s hard when your alone.

Until I found Lifebook :) I started become organize my thoughts and my life. I became mentor of my company and managing shops in my city. Also, behind the chair I managed to help and share my experiences through this program and connect with people effectively with a purpose. Over the years,me and my kids got reunited, I got my 4 year degree diploma in management, joined a band as one of vocalist, back on my paintings and finishing my first book (memoir) , learning new language, one of the team in leadership in the church and joined Toastmasters Club.

Life is still hard lots of challenges still. However, got to get organize and less overwhelming for me. I stepped on the power state and learned how to respond.

I will continue sharing my story wherever I go. And thank you for all the learnings. God bless
