Transformation
I have recently found myself talking about transformation .. my own personal transformation and the more I said it, the more I knew I had to do something with it, the more I knew it was something I had to pay forward. Three things happened recently that have taken me down this path.
Firstly I heard these words coming out of my mouth at business networking: “20 years ago I was a burnt out health visitor, now I’m a 73 year old business owner loving life. I share the self care strategies, products and a wonderful business opportunity and company that have totally transformed both me and my life.”
Wow .. and it was when I heard someone say “your ideal client is the person you once were” that it all started to make sense. If only I had known what I know now how different my life might have been but that’s not something I would have wished anyway. Because those years have taken me on a journey when I have now such incredible meaning and purpose in my life. I always knew there was a reason why I was working way past retirement age because there was something being asked of me.
And the third was an article published in a recent edition of Take a Break magazine. A journalist picked up an image of me on Instagram and wrote an article about my personal health and wellness journey. The response has been totally overwhelming and my Facebook group has grown from 150 members to 363 and counting. I realised that there are so many women out there looking for inspiration and know that they can live better for longer. If I’m honest I wanted to hide in a hole until it all blew over but then I realised that it wasn’t about me it was about them and I had to up my game.
Since all this has been happening my mind has been buzzing and I am already seeing the book that I decided not to write last year as a sequel to “Journey to Chocolate” based on the theme of transformation. I am creating a TRANSFORMation framework to structure my book, my blogs and my social media content. This blog may even be the book introduction.
So what is this TRANSFORMation framework? I have created it around the word TRANSFORM & it really is in its early stages but everything included in it is what has helped my transformation over the past 12 years since I joined Arbonne, the network marketing company I am partnered with and everything I have gained from being a part of it
So here we go .. the big reveal!!
Take action
Read, listen & learn
Attitude & mindset: there is so much work I have done on my mindset that I can share
Network: being part of a positive community
Self: Image, worth, esteem, love and most of all self care
Fuel: Your body and your skin
Occupation: sense of purpose
Resilence/ Rest
Move
So how can you find out more what’s going on as this all evolves as it surely will. Read my blogs or join my facebook group. And next year I will be launching my podcast sharing other transformation stories along with my own. And if you have any ideas please do get in touch with me!
