My vision has been awakened
After years in a toxic marriage, Cynthia used Lifebook to sweep away the final layer of doubt and reclaim her essence. Her assessment score jumped from 65 to 112 as she confronted limiting beliefs, imposter syndrome, and fear about love—emerging clear, excited, and ready to move forward.
Before lifebook- i was at a loss in creating a palpable vision for my life. With an assessment score jumping significantly- from 65 to 112, i’m back! My vision has been awakened and I have swept away the final layer of gunk- recovering the essence of myself that was slowly coming back to the surface after years in a toxic abusive marriage. I am beyond grateful! Two victories I’d like to share: 1. I am getting clear on my limiting beliefs that were once so subtly sabotaging me, and I have already started shutting them down. My latest test was learning that i was qualified but passed over for a new position because I had been away from the industry for a while. This was immediately preceeding sitting down for my lifebook exercises for both the financial and career categories. Tears came to my eyes as i began the career section but i pushed thru with every ounce of positivity I could muster- and it was an amazing, enlightening experience. To say that I had been afraid to honestly share my vision/ say it “out loud” is an understatement. For so long, I have struggled with “imposter syndrome”. No more, folks. I’m gonna work my way out of this intentionally, strategically and joyfully! 2. I fell behind when coming to the love category. I have said for some time that i am happy and am working on getting my life together- and that i was not ready to find love again... not yet. And while this is 100% the case, i had to confront that i have also been fearful and doubtful that i could one day have a partner in life that is a beautiful, loving, kind human being (Butlers- y’all are so dang inspiring ?). I finally sat ready to begin the work, thinking that i would be sad, but i instead emerged triumphant, clear and incredibly excited. Once and for all, despite my deep love for my former husband and the weird thought that perhaps there could be a hope for reconciliation, i saw very clearly how that relationship was so wrong in so many ways. As a naturally uber optimistic romantic, having always held to the “love can conquer all” idea, i was finally able to see it all so clearly. I am even more grateful than i already was that i am in this place of building and loving myself first!! Oh also- my Love section is easily double the length of most other categories- guess i was more ready than i thought!! Lol So- this is all to say (again), i am delighted and glowing with anticipation. I am already A pretty bubbly person, and people have been smiling extra big witnessing my increased exuberance ? Yesterday, i wasn’t sure whether I’d be continuing on to mastery, but my decision has been made! See y’all on the other side!! It’s time to get busy moving forward!????????❤️
