I never would have guesed..

Written sometime in 2014

Wow, Its been a while since my last post.. A lot has happened, a lot has changed, and its been an amazing journey so far.  I graduated the Neuromuscular Therapy course at National Holistic Institute in early November.  I'm currently working at Massage Envy & will be starting at Fullerton Community College at the end of January. I currently have 100% sole legal/physical custody of all three kids and we now live 5 minutes from the happiest place on earth.  My sister is still a huge support for me but is flying the coop very soon.  I started a Meditation group called, Come As You Are, and it grows a little more each week.  Physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually, I'm doing better then I ever have before and we have a solid foundation, an amazing support system and an abundance of health, wealth and happiness. I love that life just keeps getting better!


I never would have guessed that going to massage therapy school was going to be a huge growth process and it was definitely not by accident that I landed where I did & with whom.  As my main chick, Lydia-Carlie & I would say, NHI is so much more then a massage school.  Its a school of life!  Teachers there are awesome and you definitely make life long connections.  Without getting into all of the synchronicities of how I ended up there I do want to say a huge Thank You to Shawn Anderson for motivating me to take the first steps to get there.  I originally signed up for the 900 hour program and ended up signing on to the 1350 hour program.  The Santa Ana Campus had just opened when I started and I was blessed with the opportunity the be apart of the very first group 80 to start there and then again when I joined group 85 for the Advanced Neuromuscular Program.  We were a small group & were so fortunate to have an abundance of time with all of the teachers, mentors & counselors.  We watched as NHI Santa Ana grew right along with us.  It was a once in a lifetime experience with tons of memories to be cherished.


I believe people that are in our lives are mirrors of ourselves and its up to us to find the correlation and grow from each union.  Just about every person I came in contact with during my time at NHI either reflected something in me or an experience I needed to face in order for healing and growth to take place.  Enlightenment & personal growth can be a destructive process.  Its seeing through the façade of pretense and the crumbling away of untruth.  I didn't share much about the things I was dealing with while I was there, nor did I let very many in on how much they were helping me heal but I am eternally grateful and will one day share with them how they impacted my life. It wasn't always easy but it was necessary and with my tenacity and amazing support system, including but not limited to, "book club" & "carpool talk", I prevailed.
