Visionjuice - Hilary's Story

Hilary’s story: It’s a programme for people who want to bring about change in their lives but they aren’t quite sure what that change is; for people who feel they are a bit stuck and want to find ways out of that. The great thing I got from the course was understanding how to move into a position of power. What shifted with me was that I resigned from my teaching job which was great in many ways. I had a sense it was time to move on but was fearful of giving up my financial security. There was a lot of risk involved. But the reason I did it was to invest more time in the thing that is more important to me: music. That came about as a result of being encouraged to believe in myself. What I need to say to others is about the sense of safety. I immediately felt it was a safe and supportive environment. I was tearful, but able to allow that tearfulness, there was time and space to engage with what that tearfulness was about. To then go on a journey was a very positive one. And it wasn’t just Paul and Chrissie because the way in which they led those days somehow drew everybody together so that the whole group, you felt everybody was on each other’s cases. That’s one of the most important things for me. Return to the list of clients' stories
