1. The Hidden Cost of Success: A Personal Encounter with Burnout
Close your eyes for a moment and travel back with me to the year 2005/2006. My life was a whirlwind of chaos, trapped in a relentless work schedule that demanded nearly 60 hours per week. As I got my degree in German and English literature, I found myself immersed in the world of copywriting at an online agency for two whole years.
This period witnessed the rise of pioneering developments in the digital realm, including online magazines and PDF guides. What can I say being born in the late 70s when the Internet involved in the late 90s I was already a big fan. The real magic began when I landed a job at that dream agency. Can you imagine? It was like stepping into a fairytale, a dream brought to life. And here’s a little secret— a dream without boundaries can become a nightmare.
The demanding working conditions, characterized by extended working hours beyond what was contractually agreed upon, took a toll on my mental well-being.
As fate would have it, when I had already resolved to seek new employment, an unexpected opportunity arose to teach English at a private high school. However, this change wasn’t as good for me as I had anticipated. Little did I know that the burnout monster was lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce. And pounce it did. I found myself at the edge of exhaustion, physically and emotionally drained from the demands of work and studies.
To cut a long story short: the material world had taken hold of me, and I no longer had time for activities I used to love, like sports. I didn’t even have time to figure out what I really wanted in life. My mind was constantly racing from one job to another, from one problem to another. I had a thousand goals, and of course, I wanted to achieve them all. Despite my external achievements, I felt a heaviness in my heart—a sign that I had become disconnected from the spiritual realm. The inevitable burnout arose, catching me off guard and leaving me stumbling in its wake, unequipped to navigate its challenges.
2. The Road to Transformation: From Burnout to Personal Growth
You see, during that period, I was working 60 hours a week, got married, bought a big house with a really big garden. You see, I’ve always been a fan of going the extra mile. In fact, 100% effort just didn’t cut it for me anymore. I cranked it up to a mind-blowing 200%! Yes, the old me called for this burn out!
And yes, that’s when I started to understand that I am not just my mind, which knows how to organize everything, and my versatile intellect. I am also a woman with deep emotions that are affected by the rhythms of everyday life in an office or a school. I am also a spiritual being that needs mental nourishment.
And you know what happened?
I stumbled upon the profound significance of internal wealth and personal development. It was like unearthing hidden treasures within myself. The more I delved into this world of self-discovery and growth, the more I realized the immeasurable value hidden within.
It led me to something precious, something beyond my wildest dreams. Can you guess what it was?
It was the discovery of my authentic self—the realization that true wealth lies not in external possessions, but in the expansion of my mind, heart, and spirit. The journey towards personal development gifted me with a newfound sense of clarity, purpose, and depth. It transformed my entire perspective on life, enriching every aspect of my being.
3. Finding Balance: Beyond Big Houses and Gardens
That’s when I realized that it’s not enough to buy a big house with a large garden. Nope, there’s so much more to it! It’s about carving out the precious time and cultivating a calm mind to truly relish and savor every moment within those walls. It’s about creating a haven where we can share delightful hours with our loved ones, free from the relentless rush of one job to another. Yet 15 years ago, I was not able to feel this.
After the burnout that took me a long time to regain my balance, I embarked on my very first training in the realm of Spiritual Coaching—an epic moment that marked the beginning of a profound shift in my perspective. I delved into the world of Holistic Counseling, exploring nutrition as a key component of overall well-being. These courses provided me with the expertise and credibility needed to establish myself as a trusted spiritual coach. They gave me the confidence to share my wisdom, guidance, and insights with clients. But the magnetic force, attracting those who sought guidance and transformation came later. We will get there in 10 seconds.
I took the plunge into Reiki, diving deep into levels 1 & 2, and discovered the fascinating realm of holistic therapies. But it didn’t stop there. I recognized the importance of seeking guidance myself and started psychotherapy, a vital step towards healing and growth.
4. When Spirit Met Me: How Channeling turned my life upside down
I knew that I didn’t want to go back to my old job and the old lifestyle. That’s
when I asked God for my life’s purpose – Channeling was the unexpected answer.
Yes, you heard it right—I stumbled upon the cosmic jackpot. The Universe whispered its divine secret: your purpose is to blend the material and spiritual realms and bring love into this wild and crazy world. They even told me what kind of people would need me to connect them with her soul and hearts. But hey, wait! I can’t spill all the cosmic beans just yet. That’s a story for another time, my friend 😉.
Life has a funny way of surprising us, sprinkling our journey with divine laughter and unexpected gifts. Love, dedication and peace of mind were the gifts I was given by my spiritual growth, and this is what my clients delve in every day.
