Sherry's Story of Inspiration

Inspirational About Sherry!

My Healing & Holistic Counseling Service is the result of healing my own hurt feelings. 

As a licensed counselor, life coach, and psychotherapist, I now lead others to relief of stress with easy, innovative tools.

From a dancer of ballet, to running races, to accountant, to business owner, etc., I was in search of my own healing-holistic.  Searching but not finding that relief from stress.
         What is inspirational about my own story, is that I now know the truth. 

 In fact, I knew it all along. BUT, I was just in despair because I did not trust myself. 

I did not seem possible that I could be right.  I never even considered that!   

 As you read this page, let yourself become inspired.  Know that your own dreams come true too!,  If I can do it, anyone can! 

Like most of us, I believed in the way of the world.  There were many things I did not question, though I knew they made me unhappy.  Things like:  Life is hard; sacrifices must be made; you cannot have it all; We must be practical in life; good things come to those that work hard and do the right things; dreaming is silly; fun is a great luxury. 

What a huge relief to know I was right all along.  I just did not have the right tools, or the right information.  I was actually going about it all backwards. 

In fact, I was CLUELESS!  NO wonder life was miserable!

I know first hand, that dreams can come true.  Mine do all the time, more and more often.   My relief of stress, well being, and health, and tremendous joy just keep increasing.  

If you ask me now, if I believe in magic, I will say to you, of course!

MORE ABOUT SHERRY!

I was a dancer of ballet until the age of 30. 

However, my dancing was plagued by my own hurt feelings, and so limiting beliefs. 

I did not believe in myself, and of course, everyone could see it. 

You can't really hide much while dancing! 


Dissatisfied with my stuck feeling, and frustrated with life, I was always searching.  Believing my answer would come through my work, I had a very "colorful" career, including accounting, sales, social work, health care, and my own recruiting firm. I was the master of both getting jobs and losing jobs.

 

I still remember the day I, unexpectedly, decided to stop being a dancer of ballet.  dancer.jpg

The decision occurred silently, and quickly, during an ordinary dance class in New York City. 

I now see this as divine inspiration, and the beginning of my transformation. 

Without even knowing it, this decision freed me up to begin jogging....... 

And transforming!

In a short time I was running races. 

Soon I was competing. 

I even became a high-ranking competitive marathoner. 

No one was more shocked than I was!

Plus, I had fallen in love with running, and discovered a freedom like I never knew before.

While I did not see at the time, was that my spiritual journey had started.
In quite a dramatic way, my next major catalyst for change came years later, during a period of intense personal upheaval and emotional pain. 
My healthy, vibrant, 60 year old, marathon-running father, was given the fatal diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, and expected to die quickly. We had an awesome relationship. 
          TRAGEDY IS REAL
My father was not the kind of man this bad stuff happened to.  He was the happiest guy I ever knew.  He woke every morning, and sang at the top of his lungs, in joy.  This made no sense.  My entire world world had been turned upside down.    
What I did not know then, was that miracles can come at the strangest of times. Sometimes, perhaps they have an easier time waking us up from our comas, during a crisis. 
So perhaps that is why, while my father was sick, I began to receive powerful images of white light. With no spiritual inclination or background, I did not know what to make of it.  Yet I knew something was happening. 
While I found it hard to believe, it seemed that the white light was helping my father, tremendously.  In fact, I KNEW it was helping him.  I also knew that if someone else was having this kind of experience, I would have thought it unrealistic. 
Then, one sad day, one year later,  my white light turned to blue light.  I say it was a sad day, because I experienced the blueness as sad.  While I had no idea what any of this meant, that very day my father went back to the hospital.  It was the tragic day the doctor informed he was was about to die.  
My father, and all of us, were shocked.  The last week of my father's life was the only time I ever knew him to be depressed, dark, and angry.  You see, he loved being alive.  And it is his journey, that began my journey. 
I now know that there is the Universal Law of Polarity.  It states that for every terrible thing that happens, there is an equally wonderful thing that also happens.  And so my own spiritual journey was launched, rocketed forward.  Just as my father journey was launched to his death. 
Since that time, I have never stopped expanding my life.  I just can't get enough of this life.  There is  so much worth having, enjoying, and becoming.  While I am not happy that my father is not alive, and never met my daughter, I would never want to be the person I was before his illness.  While I did not have this comfort then, I do now believe, that all is well with my father too.
MIRACLES ARE REAL
Also since then, my counseling service work has become both passionate, and tremendously effective.  I had a child, and discovered the true meaning of my life.  I enjoy a sense of adventure, love of life, joy, success, and relief of stress, that is enviable. 
I use my own tools, and am always expecting the next level of "knowing." I play like a kid, yet have the knowing and wisdom of my years. 
If I can do it, anyone can!
Let yourself be inspired by my story.  Find your own relief from stress and healing-holistic. NOW!
         YOU DESERVE IT!
