A New Beginning
Whenever I think about change, I consider the what ifs, the wrong turns and even the uncertainties. Most would agree that in the past year our world has seen significant change in how we live or survivor from day to day. It’s not always comfortable but adjustment is necessary. Nevertheless, regardless of any fear that arises, starting new can be the change we need.
Deciding to shift parts of our lives does not mean that we do not value what we have and where we are. Usually, it starts with something within pulling at us for more life, more purpose and more happiness. A fresh start has so many possibilities — for both good and bad. But often, no matter how we feel about them, new beginnings are inevitable. It all comes down to where we want to be and the choices we make to get there. This can be exciting, challenging, scary, painful and nerve-racking – all at the same time. Have you ever felt this way?
For me, I’m coming out of a long hiatus that distanced me from some of my deepest passions and goals. This hiatus may have limited my attention from some of my personal and business aspirations, but it gave me the precious time needed to nurture my family.

Now, as seasons arise, a transition is presented yet again. It’s extraordinary one that ignites purpose and helps others to do the same.
As a certified life coach for 10 years, I’m no stranger to people seeking change that would lead them to more gratification. My observations as a coach, and in my personal life, have shown me that we tend to leave behind the simple opportunities that can bring pure joy. We are often so driven by the ideal vision of success or subconsciously accommodating the needs of others that we miss our own happiness. Thus, we live with an internal and tormenting lack of fulfillment.
Happiness may seem like a simple idea, but it’s an essential ingredient to finding our life’s purpose. Happiness guides us in our decision-making and helps us reach our most desired goals. In this first edition of the Echo Luv newsletter, we want to help you gauge where you are on the happiness scale and offer tips on how you can improve and reach a higher level. This does not mean you are currently unhappy — these questions are meant to add confidence in where you are in life and where you want to be. Ask yourself, “Where is happiness most noticeable in my life today? What part of my life, right now, did I choose, and does it make me happy?”
