The top 3 ways to make your New Year’s dreams a reality (and no you don’t have to journal anything – yet)

I scribbled furiously in my journal, my head down with
focus, my writing barely legible.

It was New Year’s Day 2003 and I was making my dreams come true, god damnit.

Sad side note: they didn’t come to fruition that
year.

Then there was the year, after a horrible New Year’s Eve
date (not even a good kiss, if you can believe that nonsense) that I dropped to
my knees in my tiny studio apartment in NW Portland and asked The Universe to
just send me the love of my life already.

Sad side note: he didn’t show up that year either.

Finally in 2007, I got sick, like tumor-on-my-ovary sick and
woke up.

Manifesting the life of my dreams wasn’t going to happen
alone, by myself, wishing or desperately crying out my desires to some random
Universe.

I was going to have to come up with something far better
than that and fast.

There’s nothing like a healing crisis to whip a girl into
shape.

That was the year I learned about coaching and healers and
psychics and prayer healings and all kinds of seemingly whacky things that
totally changed my life and saved my health.

I became a coach and then a healer after that.

Because, it worked.

Here’s the thing, as humans we’re flawed af. And we cannot
do this life thing alone.

Left to our own devices, we screw up and self-sabotage. We
do this because we carry within us unprocessed traumas, hurt and pain that are
leaking out all over the place.

This is the reason the self-development field has
blown up in such a dramatic way in the past decade (predicted to be a $13.2
billion industry by 2022).

We know we can’t do life alone, and we know we need support
– whether it be by a therapist, coach, mentor, healer or a spiritual guide.

We know, intuitively, that it only takes one person
to believe in us to experience the next level in our life – whether that’s
buying our dream home, getting married, starting a new business, divorcing a partner
and getting to truly know ourselves, writing a book, having a baby, healing our
body of a physical/mental illness or creating a whole new
industry/product/creative endeavor.

In the world now, there are many gifted mentors, healers,
coaches, therapists and spiritual guides and it can be tough to know how to
choose “the one” who can walk alongside you as you bring your desires into
reality.

So, I put together my top three tips to help you choose the perfect-for-you support to make your new year’s dreams come true (because no one should be left stranded on their carpet crying out to the Universe):
