My Story

 

 
No borders, just horizons - only freedom.
— Amelia Earhart

Hey there, I'm Margo, and for the longest time, my life was a tale of hiding, silent whispers, and a yearning to be seen. The mantra in my head echoed, "Stay quiet, stay invisible, and you'll be loved." It was a narrative I unknowingly inherited from my mother. Though my heart secretly longed to be acknowledged, the craving for love and acceptance overshadowed my desire to shine.

Staying small felt safe, almost comforting, even when it stung. The other recurring story on my life's highlight reel was the belief that I wasn't smart enough, that my words held no importance. These stories, etched into my self-perception, became the lens through which I viewed myself for many years.

While these tales created a semblance of safety, they also wove a tapestry of anxiety, depression, and panic attacks. My body screamed in protest, aching, signaling that something was amiss. Despite my mental allegiance to these stories, my body rebelled, demanding attention. Aches, pains, anxiety, and panic attacks became my body's desperate attempt to communicate.

In my search for relief, I sought solace outside myself, leading me into co-dependent relationships and unfulfilling career choices. It sucked, and yet, it became the prelude to my journey into coaching and ultimately IFS.

Life has a way of nudging us toward change, and for me, it began with the loss of my beloved mother. Her passing was a catalyst, awakening the dormant high-achiever within. A desire to break free from mediocrity ignited, and I embarked on a journey towards the life I was truly meant to live.

Amidst the grief, a revelation unfolded: I discovered a potent voice and a deep passion to assist others. This realization marked the beginning of my coaching journey. I chose to turn away from the ordinary and set my sights on the extraordinary.

So here I am, navigating the path of deep change, compassionately leaving behind the old stories and embracing my authentic voice. Life may have thrown its curveballs, but I wouldn't trade this journey for anything. It's my testament to transformation, and I'm here to guide you on your own personal quests. Together, let's unveil the extraordinary within you, turning the page to authenticity, resilience, and self-love that I know is within you.
