If you're anything like me, you have a strong desire in your heart to be of service to others and have a lifestyle aligned with your values. And yet, while your heart yearns for this, you have too many commitments and responsibilities to take a leap of faith into a whole new lifestyle and start a business without a plan - you have to be practical.
Perhaps you're not even sure if it's realistic or possible for anyone, including yourself, to still be able to pay the bills and take care of your family as a healer and heart-centered entrepreneur. You dream of it though, and this desire in your heart keeps getting stronger instead of going away. And yet, it seems so impossible and impractical to leave your established career or job to embark on a new journey, even though your current situation doesn't speak to your soul.
It's possible though. I've done it, and I've helped others to do it too.
After high school, I didn't know what I wanted to do, and so at my parents encouragement I went to college and studied computer science. I didn't have a passion for it, even when I was studying it. I only lasted 3 years in high-tech after graduation before I burned out physically, emotionally and spiritually. I felt like the work I was doing was making the boss richer, and not accomplishing anything helpful for society or individuals. I felt so disconnected from myself, my passion for helping people, and my desire to be healthy, relaxed and well. It seemed like a no-win situation.
As an employee I made enough money to take care of my basic physical needs (car, apartment, food, medical care), but the work was not feeding my spirit and heart. My soul was starving, and I spent all of my free time and money receiving services from and studying with holistic health, wellness and spiritual mentors to try to satiate the hunger in my soul. I learned a great many things over the years, and I found a secret place in my heart that wanted to do this kind of work too.
I spent a long time looking for someone to hire me to do the kind of work my heart called me to do, almost 5 years searching with no results. I saw that a lot of people who went into private practice when they couldn't find a job doing their soul-work were perpetually struggling to pay their bills. It seemed like unless you were really lucky or smart, following your bliss in work didn't result in an ability to thrive in our 3-D world of bills, rent and purchases.
Eventually, I found some people in the healing arts who were able to be of service in a soul-ful and profitable way. So, I asked them a whole lot of questions, and I hired a business coach to help me fill the gaps in my knowledge. Through my experiences, I learned that there were specific skills one had to learn to have a profitable business, and it was a relief to realize that it was possible to be profitable in a way that has integrity and honors my values.
