About Anu
who am i
There I was, doing everything right, fulfilling all my roles and responsibilities the best I could. Mother, spouse, daughter, friend, employee, daughter-in-law, volunteer, and home manager. My work was cut out and my plate was full. Parenting just by itself required my all. Happiness still elusive, I was giving everything I had but remained unfulfilled. I may have experienced it temporarily in my roles but not as an individual. That sense of deep fulfillment, connections and relationships just wasn’t there. A small quiet voice within kept asking “what about me?”
On the outside everything was “perfect," but within I was shrinking. I yearned to grow and experience life fully. I wanted to be “ALIVE”. I tried everything I could think of: reading inspiring books, diving deep into spirituality, having intense conversations with people I thought had “figured it out.” I gained a lot but it still left me feeling that I was just consuming information, not wisdom. It was easy to put these thoughts on the back burner because I was too “busy” with my responsibilities.
I remember…
I was in Hawaii at 4:30 in the morning, sitting by the ocean in complete silence, feeling the gentle breeze on my face, looking into the vastness before me, and watching the waves touching the shore and receding. It was the most beautiful and peaceful moment one could imagine. I had tears flowing down my cheeks because I couldn’t completely connect with the magnificence before me. I knew I should be feeling peaceful, happy, and content, but I wasn’t.
…and the journey within began.
My best friend stepped in and held my hand, not letting go even for a breath. My FAITH became my best friend.
I realized, it wasn’t my purpose that was lost, but me. I stepped out of my comfort zone and faced the fears and beliefs that held me back.
I am not good enough
What I have to say is not important enough
If people knew the real me they wouldn’t like me
I have to be “perfect” before I can express myself fully
I know love but don’t feel loved, heard or valued
My comfort zone is safe
Everyone is settled with this rhythm
I don’t know if i want to rock the boat and face the consequences
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
— Anais Nin
Today, I have stepped into a place of
being.
I have remerged with the source of infinite wisdom, strength and guidance. I have found the freedom to choose and to create my own reality.
This moment of realization led me to train intensively with MARTHA BECK Wayfinders Coach training and draw knowledge from my Masters in Psychology. My lifelong love of studying human behavior and experience in the corporate world as a trainer and a business development professional helped me tremendously.
I’m no longer a prisoner of my limiting beliefs, circumstances, cultural conditioning or anyone’s expectations and opinions. I can tell you confidently that my relationships with my inner Self, children, spouse, friends, and parents bring me deep connection and joy.
I have found the Connection I was seeking and my purpose is to help YOU find yours. My life’s work is to help you identify that what holds you back and find the answers you seek.
I understand how it feels to be stuck, overwhelmed and lost. It doesn’t have to be that way, there is a path that leads to freedom. If you choose to let me, I’m here to hold your hand and provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to step into your journey!
My coaching practice is a work of heart so it’ll be my honor to have you join my tribe ❤️🦋
