Bio

Transformation Coach 💠 Mental Fitness Facilitator 💠 Stylista 💠 Over50andFAB

My Girlfriend Voice is the opposite of your harsh Inner Critic.  She is the supportive Inner Whisperer and Sage. You’ve likely lost touch with her because she competes for time amongst a crew of inner mean girls and boy do they love to bark and moan-- misery loves company, right?  You can't eliminate their messaging all together but you can manage their power OVER you.

🙌🏻 I love to create community and facilitate authentic conversations.

✅ I’m open to personal and professional connections.

❤️ Single in Oakland CA

First you may want to know a little bit more about this middle-aged woman who listens to the voices in her head! 
So here's 10 things that come to mind:

1.  All emotions are valid.  I know, the darker ones aren't so pleasant but there's a gift in every experience.  Depression was one of best things that every happened to me.  Divorce is a close second.  Really.

2.  I've learned to value honesty over harmony.  No more people pleasing if that's OK with you?

3.  Curiosity and Compassion are my Super Powers.  I'm also sensitive and confident, creative and analytical, soft and strong. 

4.  My biggest hope is that I inspire women give themselves permission to live authentically and uncensored.

5.  Fear has muscle memory and boy does it keep you comfortable. It's one workout I don't feel guilty giving up.  Mental fitness is my new jam.

6.  "Busy-ness" was my drug of choice but the numbing only delayed my living in alignment with how I want to feel. 

7.  Vulnerable is not weak. Humble is not small. However, stupid is stupid.  Sorry not sorry.

8.  Your past is a bruise, not a tattoo.  You don't live there anymore!  Small steps forward lead to lasting transformation.

9.  I am passionate about removing the stigmas associated with mental illness and substance misuse.  No joking here.

10.  I will learn to accept what I cannot control and compliments.  (don't laugh at me)  And there are many more "work in progress" categories!

From the heart,

Cara

PS:  Why don't people write thank you notes anymore?  THANK YOU.  I needed to get that off my chest.
