Hello, beautiful, mega successful woman. I just want to share with you my own journey that I went through and I just thought that maybe if I share with you this, you would resonate with some pain that I went through. You know, for some reason I was feeling that there is never enough. I felt not enough. I don't know. It seems like it's a common pain that women, especially women us we hold that doubt and self-criticism and we kind of always trying to do and be the best for everyone and everything around, so we just pull and push in our lives because we feel not enough. You may ask yourself a question I achieved so much, I've done so much, but why I don't have that feeling of feeling enough? It's always not enough. I call it more is never enough. Look, have that feeling of feeling enough, it's always not enough. I call it more is never enough. Loop. So it's like a vicious cycle. What I found through my own journey is that I need to learn more, I need to take more courses, I need to complete that school or I need to do this particular business course. I've done a lot, I have a lot of knowledge and don't take me wrong, knowledge helped me to achieve a lot, but at the same time it stole the joyfulness from me. It lowered the level of excitement, the level of motivation. It is almost like leaked out my vitality for life, my excitement and inspiration to create more. Because it was from that place of not feeling enough. It's because I believed that someone else's is better than me, better than me, someone else is more enough than me and someone else's success is a benchmark for me to strive for. And that's what we taught in business schools or in schools. We always kind of have immersed ourselves in the environment where competition is celebrated, where the comparison is accepted, and that creates this empty place within ourselves, empty place within ourselves. And then we just run and run and we waste so much energy to try to get to that next achievement, thinking and believing and hoping that finally I'm going to be complete. I know this feeling.

Speaker 1: 4:17

I went to Harvard Business School, I did MBA program, I did my healing school, I did engineering, economics, university. How many different prestigious courses in between I did. I did, I like them and I learned so much, but it still didn't really give me tools and internal energy that I can actually master my life. But I wanted to master my life, and eventually I did. I did master my life. But I wanted to master my life and eventually I did.

Speaker 1: 5:04

I did master my life and I achieved so much from different place in me. I created total abundance in all areas of my life health relationships, areas of my life, health relationships, creativity, all the professional and work involvement. Now I don't really separate it from my life and work. It's my life, the adventure that I am flowing through and everything comes to me. So now I know that I am enough and I'm enough so much that I'm equally talented and have that inner genius within me that doesn't need to be compared with anyone, doesn't need to be competed with anyone, and that loop I broke, that loop of not enoughness. Enough is enough.

Speaker 1: 6:10

So I invite you to consider, possibly, if you are feeling that you're stuck in this loop. Just hit the button below of this video and book your mapping session with me. We can go over and find the areas of your life that you stuck in, possibly because of that belief that you are not enough and we can unravel it and we can heal it, and you will start to live completely different lives. So mapping session can then tell you if I'm the one that can help you. I was there like you, struggling right now. Maybe you're stuck and you pull and push and you're wasting your energy and you're wasting your energy and you're wasting your health. So just come for the mapping session and if we're not resonating with each other, I'm sure we can point you into the right direction and tell you who can help you. Thank you so much, and I just excited to see what is on another side when you go through that process.
