My 28-Day Journey

I just finished a 28-Day Journey with my dear friend Paula. While I have to admit I'm skeptical about the majority of the self-help mechanisms out there, I enjoyed the self-discovery that took place over the past month.

Paula has a wonderful way with words that made us think over and over of how we can live our lives to the fullest, and how that is different for everyone. Our "gifts lead to our gold" as she says, and everyone's gold is different. How we perceive, and react to, the world and people around us is often determined so early in life and Paula is so great at encouraging us to just let go of those previous binding ties. In her way, she has restored the concept of faith. That by believing, we can see.

Paula is currently working towards a certification in life-coaching and I wish her all the best on this new endeavour. I know the road she's taken has been winding and, at times, foggy. But, she has seen her essence and knows how to share that with the world.
