So in order to survive - I just tried to conform to what others called
‘Living’ and began to mould myself into the version of life that others
deemed ‘Real’
However deep inside it felt incredibly lonely and far from genuine.
It soon became clear that the world most people inhabited was a
world founded on separation and limitations that they believed were
real. But for me I simply could not contain this inner knowing that I
just wanted to be free to be myself. Yet I too found myself donning
the mask of happiness and contentment and pretending that
everything was ok.
But deep down inside of me I knew that it wasn't.
As a child it was as if I existed in a world of my own, feeling utterly
alone and profoundly misunderstood. I couldn’t shake off the
overwhelming sense of feeling so different from everybody else as if
I didn’t quite fit in or belong here. Fear consumed every aspect of me
and I found it difficult to trust in life or trust anyone. All of the
judgments aimed at me pierced through to my soul and left me
wondering ‘Why am I here?’
Have you ever felt like there was something missing in your life but you didn't quite know what it was? From the outside everything looks ok but deep in your heart you have this undeniable longing for something greater and you're not quite sure what it is or how to find it? I remember one day standing in front of a mirror gazing into my eyes and thinking - this doesn't feel like my life. It feels like I am just going along for the ride.
I came to know that inner sense of emptiness and loneliness would continue to haunt me as I struggled to articulate or understand the depths of this longing this yearning for something greater - for a life that feels authentic or filled with purpose - this quest for a deeper connection or alignment with my true self to discover who I really am, what I am capable of and why am I here? And how deeply uncomfortable it made me feel to step outside of what I knew or what I had been taught.
Life has a way of intersecting with our path and presenting us with crucial turning points
One such pivotal moment in my life unfolded when I became ill. Given my lifelong
profession as a nurse it surprised me how resistant I felt towards seeking help from the
medical profession. In retrospect I saw it as a personal challenge that questioned my
abilities as a natural healer and left me feeling like a failure. During this time all of my
beliefs and self-perceptions were reinforced and a deep sense of disappointment came
bubbling up within me that I could no longer suppress. It felt like life had let me down
and everyone and everything had let me down including myself. I carried the weight of
feeling like a burden and as a nurse and mother I struggled to accept the idea of being
cared for by others or even asking for help. And most significantly a deep overwhelming
feeling began to emerge that I had not fulfilled my purpose or achieved what I came
here to do.
And while these defining moments shook me to the core they ultimately became the
catalysts for personal growth and transformation.
The profound teachings of Rikka’s Life Transformed™ principles began to unravel before me by opening up a beautiful blueprint of infinite possibilities, unwavering love and conscious awareness. Each step I took guided by Rikka’s wisdom illuminated the path ahead revealing the miracles and magic that awaited us. It was a journey that called forth my courage, tested my commitment and demanded that I stand unwavering with Love. Throughout this inner journey home to love I came to discover my unique talents, gifts and abilities and reconnect with my true self. The Life Transformed™ teachings have been the most incredible gift in my life and every day still continue to grow and expand infinitely and abundantly.
Transformation is a multifaceted experience. It is beautiful - yes and can also be
daunting, challenging and at times feel overwhelming. This beautiful process requires
such a level of kindness and gentleness as we embrace the full spectrum of emotions
and experiences and allow them to wash over us like a beautiful waterfall. It is in this
beautiful surrender that we experience the gifts of wisdom, grace and freedom that
shape us into the full expression of our true selves.
Through the Life Transformed™ teachings I learned the art of letting go - letting go of
the past hurt, fear and anger that kept me bound to a limited version of myself.
With the
help of Rikka I was able to shed the layers of self-judgement and the belief that I needed
fixing and finally step into the truth that I am already beautiful, already loved and
already deserving of all of the wonders that life has to offer us and give myself
permission to receive it all.
Nine years have passed since I began this sacred journey and I am still in awe of the
transformations that I have witnessed and received and still continue to witness every
day with my own clients.
My greatest joy as an Advanced Life Coach is to assist and support others on their inner
journey of awakening and self-realisation to remember who they truly are.
I have the honour of witnessing countless individuals step into their authentic selves and
know how beautiful and loved they truly are so that they can begin to live from grace
and become the future leaders of this beautiful new earth in harmony with all life.
I dedicate and honour these sacred teachings to my beloved soul sister Rikka.
Have you ever felt the stirring of your heart beckoning you toward a greater purpose? In 2015 I found myself embarking on one of the most extraordinary journeys of my life. At that time I never could have fathomed the profound impact this experience would have on my life and how this journey would set me on a beautiful pathway of self-discovery, healing and the remembrance of my true self. All I knew for sure was that my heart was calling me and I had to heed that call.
Our first adventure in oneness began on a weeklong retreat nestled amongst the enchanting rainforests of Costa Rica. I will never forget my first encounter with Rikka Zimmerman. She approached me with such a sense of joy and excitement eager to share a profound experience of holding a delicate butterfly cocoon in her hand and feeling its heartbeat resonate within her palm. It was in that moment that I knew I had stepped into a magical world of wonderment and bliss and a deep sense of knowing that I was coming home! It was a message from the universe confirming that I was exactly where I was meant to be.
