“And why would you fly someone half way across the world to do one on your life?”
This was the question asked by friends and associates of my client last month in the US. They also asked “couldn’t you find someone in this (well populated) country to do it?”
My client has given me permission to speak of his experience because he feels the changes he’s made has in fact saved his life and has the potential to save many others.
His answer was;
I chose Sherry because her approach makes the most sense of anyone I’ve come across (even in the USA.)
I trust her.
She won’t take any of my ‘shenanigans’ (not the exact word he used)
and when questioned about the cost he asked his colleagues (who get paid in one hour what it cost him to hire me for 2 weeks) “what would it be worth to you for even one more day of life? I’m buying ‘life’ time.”
So what does a lifestyle makeover involve?
It differs for every person but the key is to look at all the areas of life that are working for you, build on those and the areas that are not working develop strategies and habits that help you create the best life you are able with goals uniquely yours and the resources in your environment.
For most people we look at the quality of fuels they are taking into their body, mind and spirit in what they eat, how they think and relate, which impacts their feelings and actions.
Some typical things we look at are;
food, shopping, cooking, sourcing, for some clients I find them chefs others I teach how to cook….what works for your life and budget.
exercise
breathing & hydration
toxic influences and how to manage them
relationships
work plans, life plans and leisure plans
finding purpose
Some makeovers take place over a 6 to 12 month basis, others are brief and can happen within time frames allotted depending on what is needed. The intention is getting people on their path with sustainable shifts that enable long term wellbeing.
It is all about living a lifestyle you intend and create not one that just happens to you, based on things you don’t intrinsically value. That is different for everyone which is a good thing. I’ve seen people strive to live a life they admired in someone else and when they got there were disappointed because it wasn’t a life based on what they really want and value (I’ve also lived it). When they start to construct their life organically based on what is truly important to them on a conscious and unconscious level then they start to truly add style to their life.
