"Let me start by stating that my journey has been one of internal conflicts and struggles throughout my life. My personality, in combination with my life experiences, made me into who I am today, for which I am grateful. However, to every upside, there is a downside and vice versa. I've known highs, lows, and the calm in between. All of them had their own lessons hidden inside, trying to guide and teach me how to take care of myself. I have gained a lot of insights and knowledge about myself, to the point where I am grateful for who I am, and I trust myself in finding my way. As you might notice, the crux in the above message is: me refusing to share my struggles, dealing with them on my own, and only trusting myself with my inner workings. This survival instinct, my strength, and me only trusting myself is my weakness. I've come to realize through conversations and opening up (just a tiny bit) that I needed help. That I deserved help in breaking down this internalized pattern and my modus operandi. Then Sarah crossed my path thanks to the recommendation of a shared connection. He told me to reach out to her and just connect. What followed was an amazing conversation, and Sarah offered me her time, and attention and invited me into her Avagasso "draike" community. She is currently guiding me on my journey to find what is at my core and how to draw it out into the open. Which I can tell you is a confusing, mind-bending, struggling, and challenging road... But priceless. I have never shared so much of myself in a group setting as during the online sessions. I've had multiple epiphany's every single session. The way Sarah makes sure that people feel safe to share, are able to open up, and confidet in each other is an amazing skill. The entire community is there to support each other on their own path, all willing to have open conversations and practice active listening to those talking/rambling in the process of structuring thoughts while talking. I'm not there yet, but I am already transforming and shedding some old skin. People I have known for years and who know me well also see me changing and are very supportive in letting me explore myself by granting me the time and space I need. I cannot express in words how grateful I am to Sarah for taking me under her dragon wing and guiding me through this phase of exploration and growth. Why do I call it guiding instead of coaching...?! Well, in my experience, coaches (ambition/goal-oriented) are there to tell you what to do, which tools to use, how to do it, and what the result needs to be. What Sarah does is not coaching but guiding. She will let you explore yourself where your attention needs to go to, not tell you how to feel, act, or what your goal should be. You will have to do the work, and she will only guide you toward the path of self-exploration. If you are looking for quick solutions or answers, that is not what you will get... You will leave a conversation with more questions than answers that you will have to dig into and do the work. Which will make the result, whatever it may be that you find ... A priceless treasure hunt with high reward. For every person out there who is struggling in either private or professional life, take it from me: Diving into thyself is the most precious gift you can give yourself.
