Do you feel responsible for the happiness of your loved ones?
Do you stay quiet to avoid making someone else uncomfortable?
Do You KNOW how to solve other peoples’ problems, but they just don’t take your advice?
Have you tried? Hard?
If you’re tired and ready to throw in the towel,
If you want to stop over-caring, over-giving and over-doing,
I have something for you
“Never give from the depths of your well, but from your overflow.” Rumi
This quote coming across my social media feed immediately brought to mind the many women I know who have not experienced ‘overflow’ in years or maybe ever. They are, indeed, empty and dry.
I talk with my friends about how drained we feel at times, but as soon as we get a teensy bit of energy back in our ‘well,’ we find something—relationships, projects or behaviours—that quickly drains it. So, what then, does overflow feel like?

My Struggle to Hear My Inner Guidance
|
Hi and Welcome!
I am Jennifer Washington, a Certified Martha Beck Life Coach, as well as an Integrative Mental Health coach. I'm the creator of What Now Life Coaching. I have run many Vision Board Workshops and Connections Groups and has been coaching 1:1 for over 10 years. |
Why I Became A Life Coach
A few years ago I woke up inside myself. Some would describe it as a mid-life crisis or a meltdown. I knew I needed help, but I didn’t know how to start. The closest I could come to activating a search engine investigation was “What Now?” I came to a cruel realization that I had done everything I was ‘supposed’ to do and I was miserable.
Fast forward to the present, after Life Coaching entered my world. I now describe that melt down as my awakening. I’ve discovered my inner guidance, how it works and I can teach you!
If you are at a point in your journey where the most resounding question you have is “What Now?” please email: coachjenniferwashington@gmail.com

She has lead me to recognize and see past my imperfection to understand “I am good enough”. Thank you Jennifer for your generous and encouraging guidance and support while taking this journey with me. -Marsha; Corporate Consultant

"I think what you do when you are listening to me during our sessions is listening for meaning behind the stories...the content is kind of the 'noise.' I see now I have choices in my life (therefore freedom), to make the best ones I can with what I have, to take responsibility for outcomes, 'forgiving myself. Letting others make their own choices. Having a choice about how to feel about outcomes. Not taking responsibility for other people's choices. You do good work, Sistah!

I never thought I was the type of person that would ever need or want a life coach figuring I could always sort out everything by myself - that was what I had always done.
I had a certain amount of pride in that. However, my life was starting to unravel, a little bit at a time. I was starting to wonder who I really was and how the rest of my life was going to play out. Even more importantly I could feel I wasn’t living a very authentic life and was definitely not living to my potential. Nor was I living the creative life that I yearned for. I had several projects on the go, some failing, some barely started, but nothing felt right. I knew I wasn’t moving in the right direction. And really, on a whim I called Jen. What could it hurt I thought? The truth is it didn’t hurt, and it was easy compared to how I was trying to sort though challenges on my own. The most important thing that Jen has done is to give me the tools I need to manage problems and even my relationships. She has helped me to see past my old habitual ways of trying to ‘fix’ problems and people. Just a little shift in my thinking and perceptions has produced amazing results. Jen is intuitive, nonjudgemental and positive. I look forward to our sessions. Every week I see real life results. Today I look forward to the future with energy and a happy expectation.
