« LA TORTUE DE BLONDINE »* COACHING
HOW I BECAME A COACH
I have been teaching English for about twenty years and I have always chosen to work with “difficult” children because what I love more than teaching English is showing students how to respect themselves and respect the others. And I know that motivated teachers are needed. At the same time, I have used my intuition to help my friends and their acquaintances make hard decisions more and more often. Then I realized that teaching was not enough for me because it became harder and harder to live without using my gifts and my ability to listen and comfort people.
Then I discovered coaching and it was so amazing ! At last I found how I could use my skills and my clairvoyance to help the others as I have always dreamt of. I wanted to help people find their own path, not guide them and impose what I could see and feel when I looked at them. Everybody can change his future ! I started working on an original coaching method inspired by my knowledge of self-growth tools acquired through my readings, regular exchanges with American coaches and a deep understanding of myself acquired with different methods and the powerful help of Stacey Curnow.
CREATE YOUR LIFE
I think that creating is natural and that if you deny yourself the right to be creative you prevent yourself from really living. You are like a director who can create the movie of his dreams. You are like a driver who has a choice. You are not obliged to drive straight ahead ! You can turn on the right or on the left. My mission is to help you understand why the vehicle is stuck and to find where YOU really want to go.
The solutions are inside you. You can do it ! The process is sometimes painful but it is always thrilling to know oneself better !
WHY « LA TORTUE DE BLONDINE » * ?
Illustration-Marianne Clouzot
Because for years, each time that I went though difficult moments I clung to the picture of the tortoise from one of my favorite childhood books**. I was suffering because I was still sitting on her back waiting for the moment when she would reach my dream life, when I could climb down and live. Now I would like to share with you what this journey taught me. If you feel stuck, if you feel you’re not really moving ahead, maybe you’re sitting on the tortoise’s back too. Take advantage of it and dive deep inside yourself, connect with the real you, connect to your permanent source of energy, peace and creativity. Then… take a step and walk ! Find someone to help you along the path. It can be me but it can be someone else. Trust your instinct.
