I met Nathaly Cabrera about two years ago, and finally hooked up with her this week. She is a life skill coach and trainer, and her company Dynamis is active in the HR management field. At the same time she has a private practice and she helps people get from A to B, when stuck.
I enjoyed talking to her, and I loved the fact that she is active in government circles, because these people need all the spiritual help they can get. As Nathaly explains it, people often compromise, opting for safety and security, keeping a job they dislike because of its fabulous perks, never realizing they have a choice, and that they are allowed to follow their heart, and pursue their passions.
Most people are miserable if they compromise, she says, if they settle, if they say yes all the time, when they long to say no. They have a certain belief system, and they follow it without examining the truism in it.
They think: I am too old, I am too young, I am too fat, I am too skinny, my hair isn’t right, I have no leadership skills, I will probably fail and embarrass myself, no one will hire me, I have no experience, I have too much experience, I am under-qualified, I am over-qualified, this is not feasible, they will never pay me what I want, who do I think I am?!
All these thoughts hold people back, but the few who visit Nathaly Cabrera’s office, can get off the sidelines, and into the highway of life, including men, women, teens, retirees, and students.
Why do we have these wrong beliefs? Often based on other people’s experiences and most of the time because of fear. Fear is in general a good thing, a protective mechanism, but when fear paralyzes us, it is a bad thing.
Nathaly goes on to explain that the initial in-take is free, then she designs a plan, and her clients often see immediate change, because they are liberated from their self-imposed chains.
Most people, explains Nathaly, are emotionally illiterate. They feel, but they cannot put what they feel into words and they cannot talk about what’s going on or explain it to others; they are not literate, they need to learn to talk about their feelings and identify them correctly.
Nathaly is especially critical of over-protective, overbearing parents, especially mothers. Over protection is not love, she says, it is a lack of respect for the child, thinking he cannot fend for himself. It is the parent’s job she says, to teach the kids to get along without their parents, letting go of kids teaches them to stand on their own. So mothers, hands off.
In essence, everyone needs a coach, and I would love to send you all to Nathaly, her goal is to make you happy, so you get what you want out of life!
Gotta love it.
