Esther used to believe that she can't / won't / shouldn't be a coach because what will others think / she doesn't have enough experience. Then, in a pivotal conversation, a friend said to her, "Esther, you've failed plenty of times. What are you so afraid of?" It was then that Esther realized she wasn't afraid of failure; she was afraid of success, of the change it would bring, and that she'd have to leave her comfort zone to get to the success she knew she was meant to be. Since then, Esther vowed that she would do the things that scare the crap out of her because they are the things that will make bring growth. Esther's core life mantras are "To thine own self be true" and "Be audacious," both of which I learned in high school English class. Her core life values are positivity, creativity, and independence. When Esther is living up to these mantras and values, her life is in flow. When she is neglecting them, it's like I'm swimming upstream with weights on my ankles. Catch up with Esther Shpitalnik: Website:         https://www.es-esq.com/LinkedIn:        https://www.linkedin.com/in/estherkshpitalnik/Instagram:      https://www.instagram.com/es_esq/?hl=en A Survey for Women in the Work Force:https://survey.hsforms.com/1t2WvyyQgRVOJTuG4xXdUyA2itv5    See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
