About Tanya Day
I remember when I was a little girl, all I dreamt of was having kids, a loving husband (my prince charming) a house with a white picket fence around it, and a dog of course.
Every little girl's dream, right?
Well this is what I thought I had at 27, I had my prince charming, the house and my first daughter on the way, 20 months later my second daughter arrived, I was living the life of my childhood dreams.
When my youngest turned 2, this is where my life changed dramatically and I became a single mother of two babies under four. Not the outcome I had hoped for, but it has been my reality for the past 21 years.
It was not easy at times but both girls and I got through. I pushed myself into being both Mum & Dad.
It was challenging and exhausting at times but you do what you have to do to survive.
Before I Knew It...
My youngest was in grade 12 about to finish her schooling.
This is where I had the biggest realisation of my life, I was no longer needed by my children as much as I was used to, as they both had their licenses, cars and the freedom they desired.
Me on the other hand, started my rollercoaster of emotions, feeling all those feelings you feel when you’re at a crossroads. I did all I knew what to do, pushed them down and tried to ignore them.
You know the ones I mean right?
This is where my real journey began as I launched myself into self-discovery and with that came change and development in areas I didnt’ even realise I needed and I knew nothing about.
I realised life can be anything you want it to be and change at any age is possible.
My eyes were wide open...
I went to an event and wow did it really open my eyes to what is out there and the endless possibilities available.
It is in the moments of decision that your destiny is shaped, and this is where I decided I wanted to become a life coach and so my journey began.
I started my study in Life Coaching and explored tools that help you to identify your life map and recognise how there are complex collections of beliefs, values, experiences and outside influences that can create a certain life map which may make you feel trapped in a cycle of fear and self-doubt. With the different modalities in life coaching your map can be flipped to a positive one that will work for you.
And this is what I have done for myself and many other women wanting to live a life of meaning.
I now have so much joy in supporting other women to find possibilities in their life and create a whole new chapter after children.
Being able to explore what lights me up and what I was passionate about and to creating a business after my kids left home was something I never thought was possible but now I am living that dream, and enjoying every minute of it, I have never felt so alive and excited to be able to share what I have learnt over the past few years.
Throughout my journey of study, I started seeing people around me started acting differently, different in a good way and I realised it was all the changes I was making in myself and therefore seeing things differently.
What you focus on is what you get right?
I found myself focusing on the good and I was feeling more and more grateful for what I had. I was experiencing life differently, seeing the beauty of mother nature, I was more present with myself and others and really listened to what others had to say instead of being in my own head.
I actually felt more alive.
I found the more I had good feelings and thoughts about my life the abundance appeared.
