My "crazy idea" of fundraising for my coach education and giving back just got the quotation marks, because it became real.
I'm so excited to share that I'm enrolled in the coaching course, starting next week, running through the next six months.
Isn't it amazing how an abstract, unusual, strange, seemingly far-fetched idea can materialize and turn into reality?
Creating this fundraiser is more about the intention for me. The spark that'll initiate a movement. The first drop that'll create a chain of events leading to the result.
I'm not attached to the "how", what matters is that goals are achieved: completing my coach education, passing the accreditation exams, serving my clients powerfully, showing others through my journey that creating the life that works for us is possible - and giving back.
The journey is far from over, but enrolling in the course is a huge, foundational step in the right direction.
If you received this email, you have supported me, and I really treasure your support. It means a lot. Thank you.
If you're reading this online, maybe you are on a similar journey. Or love my outrageousness, courage or out-of-the-box idea. Or maybe somebody sent this to you because they thought you might help in some way. I thank you too.
Power of connections
Right now, I have a contribution of about one-fifth of the final goal: $776 out of $4000 (19%).
This is amazing, yet I need to keep walking towards the goal.
I believe that the power of this campaign lies in the connections it might create.
The connections might lead to new opportunities that will bring in the money needed.
Connections to new part-time coaching or project management jobs
Connections to new people
Connections to new, exciting ideas
Connections that might lead to something entirely different and unexpected
Connections to new clients (some are already shaping up!)
It would be amazing if you could share this post or send it to somebody who you think might help.
Let's show people that creating lives that work for us is possible, and dreams can be dreamt.

The original post explaining the why behind this, how I will give back and where exactly the contributions will go is here.
Scholarships available!
I said that all the contributions I receive towards my coach education and accreditation, I will give back in coaching scholarships for people who can’t afford coaching.
The current contribution of roughly $776 may support one, two or three people, depending on the package.
If you know somebody who would greatly benefit from coaching, yet cannot afford it, forward this to them so they can reach out to me (creating a scholarship application is on my to-do list right now!:)
