“I was searching for the path to greater meaning, wisdom and happiness"


As a teenager I felt isolated and had no confidence. I knew deep inside that the world I experienced was not the real one, and there was something beyond this that I didn’t yet understand. I was searching for the path to greater meaning, wisdom and happiness.

At the age of 18, when I first left home to partake in national service with the Israeli army, it was a revelation. Even though I was in the army I was experiencing a freedom that I had never felt before, and a love of being in nature. I had so many new friends and my first boyfriend. I received a great deal of positive attention and I felt like the centre of the world, it was the happiest time of my life.

During this time I had a magical-fairytale relationship with my boyfriend, which I did not believe I deserved. We were to be married and celebrate our love for each other. The world looked rosy to me. But then life took an unexpected turn when he was killed in active service. Life changed drastically for me. From then on I never felt that I received what I deserved.

After the army I went to study at Tel Aviv University. Yet from that point on nothing really appealed to me in life. Nothing was as wonderful as it had been before. Real life was not a beautiful magnificent dream any longer. Nothing was as joyful, and I lost that divine sense of being free.

Later, as the years passed my professional life proved to be riddled with changes. I was a hard worker, and went for my goals with success. Nevertheless I found myself, after two years, moving on to the next job, and looking for the next opportunity.

It was difficult for me to be employed and to have to follow orders, so I struggled against co-operating with management. I always felt I knew better. I wasn’t interested in money or comfort, but rather was driven by curiosity, ambition, new interest and wanting to make a meaningful contribution to society.

Four and a half years ago I left an abusive relationship. This man was the father of my beautiful children and, it’s only now that I find I can admit that he too is a beautiful person. Only now I find that I can let myself admit this and say it out loud. Today I also know that I have let go of being a victim. This relationship cost me a great deal, both physically and emotionally. Every day, it took supreme amounts of courage and effort to take the right action for myself, without self-pity. Today I am taking back responsibility for my life, and my life mission, in a way that I have never done before.

Two years ago I quit my last job with an employer. Instead I chose to be a self- employed life coach. I have devoted myself to a career that makes a difference to the life of others, and the world. Every day brings me so much joy today. I always knew I had a lot of courage, but the experiences of the last two years where I have been fighting the greatest fears of my life and meeting them head on, pointed this out to me even more.

The most important step I took was to join the teachings of the ‘DC Group’ six years ago. It is a spiritual self-development group that originated in Wales. The focus is on our life and soul journey. This path encourages truth and the powerful commitment to the greater good of mankind. To understanding and openness. We practice the development of our self awareness energetically through the tools we acquire, like meditation, and release fears and worries in order that we really get in touch with our true selves and our life energy.

After getting to know Lynne and Deb’s work I invited them to run a new easy women workshop in Israel. I am delighted to be able to say that when the weekend was over, it gave me the sense of being a real winner!

They enabled me to realise that I was striving too hard, pushing and still struggling without ease, joy or fun in my life. I had also been getting sick, and felt drained with a sense of losing my physical power – I have always been so powerful - I realised that something had to change. During the weekend with them I was given the opportunity to heal my own life. I realised the special opportunity and I took it.

Lynne and Deb helped me realise that now was my time and I was able to create real change for myself. It was time to let go of living as I had been…and to start creating what I want in life. The special way that they coach – their special spirit and the connection I felt with them – made it happen for me.

Life is full of joy and satisfaction for me now. I feel fantastic, I am happy and have no fears. I don’t have to prove myself or apologize to anyone. Today I am doing work that I love, there are great new offers coming my way, and new doors are opening for me every day. I have a knowing deep inside that the best is still to come for me, waiting to unfold. I feel so huge and sweet and loved.

I would like to encourage everyone reading this to have joy, fun and ease in life. For they are the key words and actions in your life missions, and if you don’t have them, talk to Lynne or Deb! Have them coach you until you feel you can spread your wings and fly. These two inspiring women will take you to places inside of yourself that you have never been before, and show you how to blossom and flourish.
