What was your Power Up moment?

What was your Power Up moment?
Mine was after Malbec May in lockdown, where like many I was drinking too much. I had a lightbulb moment and I realised I had a choice: I could either do the work and level up, or choose comfort and watch greatness slip on by.
In my work as an Authenticity Coach, I help female entrepreneurs smash their own ceiling and achieve more than they ever thought themselves capable of.
But it wasn’t always like this.
As a recovering relentless high achiever and control freak, I was the master of hustle.
Of doing more, of pushing to make things happen, of delivering no matter the cost.
I was Superwoman and proud of it, juggling so many balls to keep the show on the road with our 3 kids.
Sure, I looked successful on paper, but I was knackered, constantly anxious and wondering when I’d get to start enjoying my business.
Red wine was my drug of choice to numb the nagging feeling I wasn’t happy (see also food, crappy boundaries and reality tv), and this grew to a point in early lockdown where I had a moment of clarity:
I could choose to Power Up and see just how far I could go, or choose the easy, familiar, safe path.
Luckily I chose the former and my life is unrecognisable now.
I’ve created the business and life of my dreams, helping female founders grow aligned and impactful businesses.
I’m on a mission to help as many female entrepreneurs as I possibly can, not least because when women rise, they bring other women with them.

I've been coaching female entrepreneurs since 2007, and what I've seen is there are a certain set of challenges that (mostly) only female founders experience.

1 年I can tell you one of my early power up moments. It was about 13/14 years ago. I was still sticking it out in my corporate job but really not enjoying it. I was training to be a coach at the time and, at one of the in-person training sessions, I got talking to a couple of the other attendees. One of them had just found out she was pregnant and yet had decided to quit her job and set herself up as a coach (something that most people would say would be the worst time to do such a thing, especially as were in the middle of recession at the time) As I drove home, I thought to myself "If she can do it, why can't I?" - and a short while later I handed my notice in and became a professional coach. So a huge thank you to that single individual who inspired me to take the plunge and put me on the path where I am today. And in case anyone reading this hasn't worked it out, yes - that person was Claire Ackers Thank you Claire.
