So much clarity on what I need to be doing

Looking back on my day I would say today was nothing short of amazing how this was made so clear!

The seed was sown yesterday in Authentic Speaking class when we were to think about our signature story.

I shared with George & others in the chat a bit about my dilemma, that my life experience involves childhood trauma with divorced childlike parents , a narcistic mother (who is now 90, and reads my stuff on Facebook), issues with my marriage relating to us both being raised in a difficult homes and both having had PTSD, and raising 3 kids with sensory processing issues (parenting children on the autistic spectrum).

The dilemma: Whose story do i share on a public forum without hurting those i l feel compassion & love towards?

So fast forward to this morning . . . . I was helping a friend who is a young mother with a 4 yr old, a newborn infant and 2 yr old stepson with emotional and behavior issues. I sent her lots of old documents on my computer on how to help understand and calm a child with a self regulation problem. Sometimes we forget our expertises.

Later today I met with my JoyPro buddy and we talked about an offering I had created but never released about how to help parents and families on the spectrum, or parents suffering with their own childhood trauma, or in the worst case, both. Apparently that struck a cord with her and she feels I should get that out there because she wished she had found someone like me when she needed it.

I attended George's free webinar today. I realized it is time to suck it up and do my business planning and get those offers out there. I think I have been working way too lightly.

Then,my youngest son came home from work, and began to tell me he was always uncomfortable with Halloween and remembered one that was particularly difficult. It reminded me of a story of my other son when he was four, being afraid of the librarian's witch hat and refusing to go to storytime.

That's a lot on the same topic! Like a brick hitting me over the head I'd say.

I decided to ask my kids if I can share stories form their childhood.

2/3 of my kids said "sure.

They're age 27, 29 and 32 years. I never thought until today to ask them if they care at this point.

I feel like this is all pointing in a good direction where I can align my passions with what my potential client is hungry for. A lot to celebrate!
