I always dreamed of having a fairy tale life a good man a few kids, a good happy life.
I started to date... I had some interesting boy friends in my teens they were very different yet they had 1 thing in common a crazy, scary temper.
I had grown up in a very disfunctional family and the men in my life all seemed to have scary tempers which I declared to myself that I would never tolerate -- Yet I seemed to still attract them.
So when I finally met my husband I fell hard and fast. He was different! Zero temper! What! Jackpot!
He was kind, courteous and attentive. He wasn't my typical tall dark and handsome. Well, all but the tall part but I could totally live with that. He also had 2 beautiful sweet kids at the time they were 3 and 7 yrs. old.
Finally my Prince Charming!
We soon moved in together, and we had our first child together so we became a family of 5.
My dreams were coming true! Or were they!?!
Things started to get heated, I was becoming more and more angry and frustrated with things he was doing, saying and his behaviors. Yet he never got angry he would walk away which making infuriated me.
I could wrap my head around what was happening so I became ashamed of myself for my temper. I tried different tactics, explained myself in different ways which always lead to my anger.
We seperated at least 6 times within our first 6 years together. I couldn't deal with the pain. I constantly felt disrespected, ignored, misunderstood. It was so confusing I loved him yet didn't like him very much at the same time. All I new is I didn't want our kids to grow up in a scary environment like I did.
It was frustating to say the least! 6 years into our relationship I just couldn't take it anymore. I hit my rock bottom. My co-workers thought I had turrets syndrom. I was constantly angry, complaining, freaking out and loosing my mind. I felt crazy for even being with him.
We agreed to finally get help or it was over. Either way I was getting the help for me.
We saw a life coach! You've got to understand this was 21 years ago, I had no idea what a coach was how they were going to help and no one I knew had a clue either. Some thought it was some kind of cult 🤣😂🤣
I went in blind, scared, but curious and at the same time.
I couldn't believe i! My first session, I felt validated, understood and respected like never before. I became completely aware that I was angry not because of my husband ( he was a catylist) but my childhood had created a precedence for my expectations on him. It was a battle we would never win.
I was definetely not a cult 🤣😂🤣
I did become hungry for more of this knowledge and understanding. I wanted to keep healing. I felt amazing, and my husband was learning so much too that we kept growing stronger as a team, as lovers and as freinds.
Coaching literally changed our lives and we got our Fairy Tale! We even had a Medieval Wedding and I married my Price Charming! Who is now my King!
I became a coach to support others to achieve their own Fairy Tale because of what coaching did for us.
No matter how long you've been suffering in silence you deserve your happily ever after!
