“It feels good to be doing instead of talking.”
“Before working with Erin, I could only dream about starting my own business. I would get excited by ideas and imagine making them happen, but I had no follow through. I consistently sabotaged myself because I didn’t really think I had the ability to create my own success. I was afraid.
When I first talked to Erin, I knew I needed a guiding hand to help me make the journey from employee to entrepreneur. I decided to make an investment in my future by hiring her as a coach. It was a turning point. I wasn’t going to waste the investment of time and money by once again dreaming without taking action.
With Erin, I got to see myself as the successful business person I want to be. She helped me develop an effective course of action and the accountability to see it through. I’ve developed more confidence in myself. I’m taking control instead of flowing along. With the tools I’ve gained in working with Erin, I can trust that I’ll do what’s necessary to create the life I want. I’m also showing my son that he doesn’t have to follow the usual life plan. He doesn’t need to be afraid of taking a leap and doing something. I want him to skip the process that I’ve gone through of following someone else’s idea of what I’m supposed to do.
I’ve made the best start to date in any attempt at a career change. I’m optimistic and prepared to move forward. It feels good to be doing instead of talking. I’ve gone from being a procrastinator to being someone who gets sh*t done. I’ve got this! I can be an entrepreneur! And I’m not as far away from that ideal version of myself as I thought I was.”
