76: From Darkness, Anxiety, and Stuck to True Happiness, Self-Love, and Purpose - Leah's Story
Tue Feb 03 2026
In this conversation Leah shares her transformative journey over the past 3 years of us working together. Her story is evidence of how we can all transform from intense darkness - feeling stuck in every area of life - to true happiness, purpose and self-love.
She shares how:
- She went from low self-esteem, extremely sad and anxious while pursuing a man who wasn’t choosing her, to raising her self-worth, communicating her needs, setting boundaries, and letting him go with more ease than she anticipated.
- She healed an intense anxious attachment by getting her childhood (unmet) needs met.
- She is experiencing more peace, ease, and confidence
- She went from having to move back home with her parents to buying and building her own dream house.
- She discovered her true purpose and career path.
- She says “no” when she wants to, no longer people pleasing
- She is finally being her most authentic self, no longer wearing a “happy mask” just to try to make others feel good
...and so much more. :)
"I felt like a victim to my life. I wanted to stop living. I feel like there was this version of me that was like tucked away in the darkness and through so much healing, of finding my inner voice, of asking myself what I need, I feel like I found that person who I truly am and brought her to light and I'm able to openly be who I am and unapologetically. I'm like 'wow, I get to be happy and peaceful.'"
