Coach Brit shares so many gems about overcoming, loss, her own experience with abuse and how a significant loss of a loved on shaped and changed her perspective.
She works in the mental health field during the day, and has her coaching agency to serve women in a way that the world needs more of.
In ths conversation with Gabi she talks about how we aren't our bodies, that we are SO much more than that. Empowering women to see themselves beyond those exterior pieces and root your worthiness in your core.
Understanding now that she's on the other side of digging into her healing, and what that looks like as she moves in the world, with clients on a daily basis.
Authenticity is what connected Brit and Gabi initially, and this conversation is the bi product of authentic connection and relationship building.
Bio:
I was a military child moving around until my parents settled in Spokane, WA when I was 8 years old. Life and my career have taken me to various states and as far as Germany. I am 1 of 11 children raised in a combined family. I have over 20 nieces and nephews and I am the best auntie-mommy! I have a Bachelor's degree in Human Resources Management and am currently in my Master's program for Mental Health Counseling with Capella University.
I am a #metoo survivor and advocate passionately against sexual violence and assault. I volunteered with the YMCA in Seattle, WA as a youth mentor. I also volunteered for a year with SARC in Tri Cities, WA as a crisis and rape advocate in 2019. I currently volunteer with LCS as a Crisis and Rape Advocate. This allows me the opportunity to take crisis calls and go to the hospitals when a sexual assault survivor presents. Many people do not know their rights as a victim of abuse and violence and I am blessed to help each survivor know their rights and advocate for them through the hospital visit.
So why life coaching? Because I love people and people sometimes get stuck in a rut. Not every problem we face in life requires therapy. We all have different goals, needs and life experiences that have shaped us. Sometimes we need someone who doesn't know us at all to hear us and process with.
Quotables:
"There is no one right way."
"It's so fun when you're working with a client and they are like AH-HA."
"I am not my trauma."
