I have been in several types of psychotherapy over the years both to continue my growth as a therapist, and to enhance my relationships, parenting skills, and mood. Yet I took my insights and went into my week in automatic mode, repeating the same habits. Understanding it did not always lead to me change it. Further, I wasn’t taking time to visualize how I wanted things to be different. I was lost in managing my business and family life. Life was happening to me. I didn’t feel entitled to prioritize myself. It wasn’t until I began meeting with Moira that I became able and willing to change my behavior in a meaningful way. I turned to executive coaching for assistance with management skills, strategy, and clarification of my business plan. I’ve enhanced my leadership and management skills. The most change is in my personal life with my family and friends. I noticed my wish to please others, a need to meet others' expectations even when they conflicted with my self-interest and health. I now have a more mindful and active process involved with deciding which projects to engage in, friends to spend time with, and goals to pursue. I have internalized both the mind map Moira created for me, with my values, intentions and goals illustrated around a guiding principle, and Moira’s voice, giving me permission to dream about business growth, encouraging me to be realistic about the steps involved in that growth, and reminding me to delegate. Most importantly, I have been able to delineate my zone of genius - something I’ve never quite articulated to myself or others, and make sure I am spending much of my week doing tasks that bring me energy and satisfaction.
