I am very excited today. I have fulfilled a dream that I NEVER thought could happen....ever. Again, one of the benefits of having surgery and coaching.

As I've written before, I teach a bariatric basic skills coaching workshop for OH support group leaders. It is wonderful. We have awesome leaders and they have done amazing work.

Now, thanks to the support and encouragement of my boss and OH, I am an instructor with Bariatric University, their Bariatric Coaching Skills Course. I would have never thought this could be possible. Not only is it possible but a reality!!

My boss encouraged me to pursue formal coach training which has been one of the more rewarding things I've done. Now, I get to do the same with OH in our workshop and Bariatric University with their 14-week coach training course. I'm so excited that I haven't been able to sleep for two nights thinking about how happy and excited I am.

I'm sharing this on my OH Group is for a couple of reasons. One, to share with the members how caring OH is about us as members. For them to approve of me doing this is huge.

Also, to share with you to never limit yourself in what is possible for you in your life. For a number of reasons, I would have never thought this was possible and now, I am.

Think big....what are your dreams and goals? Whatever they are, go for it, act out of your comfort zone and you too can have what your heart desires.
