Hi, I’m Linda, and I’m sharing my personal development journey to help you realise that you have the exact same power to shift your life. I did it because of a single, powerful realisation: the moment you decide to change your life is the moment your transformation begins. Not tomorrow, not next Monday, but right now.
Are you constantly showing up for other people, but rarely have a moment to yourself? Have you forgotten who you really are? Are you beginning to realise that the life you’re living is not what you’ve chosen, but just something that has ‘evolved’ over time…and you’re not sure that it’s really what you want it to be? Then you’re in the right place.
The Turning Point
For a long time, I wasn’t happy with how I felt. I was carrying extra weight—both physically and emotionally—and feeling as though the ‘real’ Linda had almost completely disappeared. Then came the morning everything changed.
I was standing in front of my wardrobe, realising I only had three work outfits left that actually fit me. Every day it was taking me longer to get ready for work, as I exasperatedly tried on outfit after outfit in the futile hope that I’d missed something that did actually fit.
Looking at that tiny rotation of clothes, the reality hit me all at once. The weight had gradually crept on over time so that I didn’t really notice at first. I had been living under the illusion that because I was still fit and active, walking and playing tennis, I had nothing to worry about. But the truth was out: I was in a rut, uncomfortable in my own skin, and everything was getting on top of me, making me feel miserable and trapped under the weight of it all.
In that exact moment, I realised that no one else was going to change anything for me. I didn’t need a massive, overwhelming life overhaul. I just needed to make a choice. Right away. To choose now to change things for myself.
Have you been struggling with extra weight for a while? Are you going through the menopause and noticing changes in your body that you don’t like? Are friends telling you “it’s just your age; that’s how it is now…” ? Do you have more aches and pains, and less energy? Whatever it is that you’re not happy with, I can help you change it.
Why I’m Sharing This Journey
My journey started with physical health, and through consistency and dedication, I lost 2.5 stone. But as the pounds began to come off, I discovered something much deeper.
Losing 2.5 stone wasn’t just about changing what I ate, being able to wear all those clothes that I loved, or how I moved. It was a catalyst for a total re-evaluation of my life, and about what I wanted for myself, now and in the future. By proving to myself that I could make positive changes and stick with them, I unlocked a version of myself I had forgotten existed.
I’m in control of my own destiny, and you too can determine what your own life looks like.
I didn’t start writing this because I have a perfect life or all the answers. I started because I know exactly what it feels like to look in the mirror—or into your wardrobe—and feel disconnected from who you are meant to be.
If you are tired of waiting for “next Monday” to reclaim your happiness, health, and confidence, you can choose to change. Starting right now.
