My Story
I learned to be responsible for others at a very young age. My mother moved to the US from Haiti when she was 14 and has always worked hard to support our family. While she worked tirelessly to provide for me and my brother, I was in charge. I made sure we made it home from school, and we had dinner and homework was done, so when mom came home, she could rest. We did what we had to do to survive and care for each other, but I had no clue how taking care of others at such a young age would impact me.
By my mid-20s, I began struggling with anxiety and depression, the cumulative effect of ignoring my feelings, neglecting my wants and needs in favor of caring for others, and pouring into their cups while also working hard to be the best student, daughter, sister, friend, and partner I could be.
Despite having accomplished many things including helping my mom raise my younger brother, supporting my mom and other family members in their time of need, being the first woman in my family to graduate from college and earn a master's degree, and owning my own business, I could not overcome the feelings of sadness, loneliness, overwhelm, and emptiness, and the beliefs that I had to be perfect or I wasn't good enough. My physical health and relationships also suffered. I was overweight, pre-diabetic, perpetually exhausted, irritable, and emotionally and physically distant in my relationships.
This cycle was not sustainable. Every aspect of my life was out of balance. When I began acknowledging my emotions, wants, and needs, and taking time to nourish my mind, body, and soul, utilizing holistic practices like breathwork, yoga, sound healing, and meditation, I noticed incredible shifts in every area of my life.
I felt energized, connected to my higher self, my purpose, and those that I loved, more confident and grounded in my abilities, and I began living a fulfilling and meaningful life with greater ease, and absolute reverence for everything I experienced, and the strengths and wisdom I had gained.
My desire for you is to know that you can embrace your role as sister, daughter, wife, friend, healer, and entrepreneur without sacrificing your self-care, wants, and needs and unlock your unlimited power to accomplish everything that matters to you with flow and ease.
Are you ready to embody your authentic power to create peace and balance in your life and relationships?
You're exactly where you need to be.
With love and light,
Coach Lou, LCPC
