What does OPM stand for? No 10 of Ed's 12 Money Mindset Strategies is - "YOU do not need money to make money use OPM strategies" Thank you :)

In coaching women facing existential challenges during midlife, such as navigating menopause and dealing with relationship issues, what specific strategies do you employ to help them discover renewed purpose and fulfillment?

I haven't achieved much in life. What I have achieved is not what I want to help people with. But what I would like to help people with is having a profound sense of freedom of simply being with oneself. I don't have to DO anything to be at peace and it took me 30+ years to figure it out. But how the bloody hell do you sell happiness from doing nothing when we live in a world of external validation and you have to be a millionaire to be accepted? Any insights would be very appreciated 🙏

I keep on coming to the realisation of my motivation to become a coach and it doesn't sit well with me. It's coming from a place of fear and inadequacy. If I become a coach, no one can hurt me anymore, because I'm always one step ahead of them in terms of awareness. I can help anyone who wants to change and I can protect myself from those stuck in dysfunction from negatively programming me; because I know better. Essentially, it's a defence mechanism my ego wants to use as an identity so I can feel same in society. It honestly feels icky and inauthentic. I don't want to be afraid of people but I don't want to be fake to feel safe either. I want to form an identity that's in alignment with my true self and become socialised in a healthy way, instead of getting on my high horse and feeling superior to others. Dont get me wrong, I love coaching as a means of personal transformation and getting guidance from genuine coaches, but as it stands, I honestly don't feel ready to become a coach just yet. I'm not going anywhere though, I value this community and have made some incredible friends. I'll still share my insights and support others where I feel aligned to help. But for now, the only coaching training I'll be going through, is to help me heal and understand myself better. Thank you for letting me be me 🙏

Show me yours, I've shown you mine! 😉 Not sure about you but I'm not great at celebrating each moment and yet it's so important - it's own inner technology that supports and flows out to benefit everywhere else. Missing our achievements is a bit like being complacent about the gift of life! So, join me I'm singing my own praises here. Feel free to sing your own below also. Or shower me with "the future is going to be gorgeous woman" vibes. I'll take that too! I'm proud of myself. I love my brain. I adore following my intuition. I love helping people glow and grow and follow their wisdom and intelligence as well. It's led me here. This work is brilliant. I'm well supported by @Ed J C Smith @Tina Hughes and all the other admin angels that support this work. (And @Katya Gor and more! Thank you for helping me grow.) Sing your own praises. What are you proud of and willing to take time to celebrate today? X
