Transformational Executive Coach Stacey Berger Saying Yes to Your Dreams Have you ever woken up and thought, ‘There has to be more to life than this’? That was me a few years ago. I had a great life – an executive level position, a husband who is also my best friend, two wonderful kids, and our dream home. From the outside, life looked pretty good. Yet I found myself feeling like I wasn’t living on purpose anymore. The moment I really woke up to that feeling, a life-change seemed impossible. Jeff, my husband, is a stay-at-home dad. I had two kids under the age of four and I was pregnant with our third child. So every day I got up and went to work, and every day I felt a little more miserable, until one day I said enough! It’s time to make a change. Did I ever! The next day I began the process of ending a 16-year career. There’s a wonderful passage by William H. Murray that says “Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to pull back and always ineffectiveness … but the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too.” And that was my experience. The moment I made that decision all sorts of things started to open up. I hired a coach to support me in discovering what was next for me. Shortly after, I took intensive training as a life coach and after a career of mentoring entrepreneurs, I launched my own business supporting people in discovering their purpose and stepping into their greatness. This all occurred because I was willing to make a decision for myself and my dreams, despite the fear of the unknown and a multitude of very logical reasons not to make that change.
