"I became a budding entrepreneur bridging technology, education, mental health, and coaching"

Quick summary

Holly transformed from working a menial newspaper job despite being an award-winning filmmaker and author into a budding entrepreneur. Through Mindvalley's life coaching certification and practices like the 6-phase meditation, they developed a framework helping others "own their story" and launched StoryGuide.ai, bridging technology, education, mental health, and coaching.

Before this program I was a certified Holobody coach just starting out. I had been a member of Mindvalley since 2018 and taken a lot of quests including Life Book and was discovering my purpose. Previously I had worked in media and was frustrated by my job at a local newspaper. I was an award-winning filmmaker and best-selling author with an extraordinary story of going from "Straitjacket Bound to Success" to working a menial job. Almost 20 years ago I had been put in a straitjacket due to an extreme grief reaction and hospitalized. I told this story in a big way through movies and books. Coaching and my love of storytelling lead to creating a startup called StoryGuide.ai. Through discovering my purpose (from coach training) I became a budding entrepreneur bridging technology, education, mental health, and coaching. After Mindvalley Certified Life coaching I gained the confidence and hours of experience by assisting coach and psychologist Dr. Beth Halbert with her clients and learned the importance of storytelling that goes along with life coaching. Using the 6-phase meditation to break through to forgiveness (especially forgiving myself for being in a straitjacket), Mindvalley practices learned through the life coaching certification, and other MindValley quests, plus all the cutting-edge experts and practitioners I was meeting as a result of my storytelling, I developed a framework to help people to "own their story." It's a way for people to tell themselves a story that works for them. Not a story that they've been telling themselves or heard about themself that doesn't work for them, but one that helps someone lead a life on purpose. Now, I work with clients through Dr. Beth and am branching to having my own clients. I've also started a podcast!
