Esther Graham gave me the strength to uncover my authentic self beneath the veil of my roles and Band-aids. When you’ve dedicated your life to your family, career, and others, you can begin to lose your identity. You just “do” but often at the expense of “you.” Well, this was my struggle. I became out of touch with my feelings and needs while putting everything and everyone else first. I honestly didn’t even know myself anymore to properly love myself. When hurts and challenges came, I just pushed on without taking the space to really heal or even deal. I just thought time would pass, the prayers would cover, and all would be well... but real healing requires work. Esther’s coaching has nurtured my mindset and rekindled a spark in my soul through practical steps, strategic exercises, and deep reflective activities. I am so much more empowered to walk in my purpose instead of just meandering through the motions. My health, mindset, organization, marriage, relationships, productivity, and peace have all benefitted in just a few months. The struggles I thought I had in my world were really struggles in me. For me, therapy and mentorship could identify areas of concern and provide general advice, but Esther gave me the specific tools to do the work to find myself, love myself, face my world, and turn it around. Esther has held me accountable to tangible progress, and I am forever grateful for her wisdom, passion and compassion.
