THE WORLD IS A BETTER PLACE SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU ARE IN IT

Feb 18, 2022

MY PERSONAL MISSION STATEMENT IS:

TO CREATE WORLD PEACE TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY THROUGH THE USE OF MY HEALING GIFTS

Have you ever stopped and taken a moment to really think about the number of lives YOU have touched during your life?

This post from Oct 25, 2009 came up in my Facebook memories, "My run group were such rock stars yesterday. Yesterday it was week 4 of 8 and as such the farthest run to date when I asked each of them how they did on a scale of 1-10 (& they couldn't say 5) they each said that they were an 8 and stated why they were an 8! The smiles on their faces were more brilliant to me than the sun!"

As I read this memory, I reflected back over the last 20+ years a small business owner, then I looked back a little farther to include being a Mom.

Over the last 25 years I have:

  • Coached 10 years of Boys youth sports, 9 of those years were coaching both of my sons soccer teams
  • Volunteered in both the boys classrooms beginning when my oldest was 3 all the way until my youngest went off to middle school. I was still very active in their schools all the way through high school.
  • Taught 50 kids to dive off of a spring board diving board
  • Taught 624 fitness classes at various locations
  • Worked with over 200 fitness clients in my personal training studio
  • Coached over 350 women across the finish line of their first fitness events, most of which were sprint distance triathlons. The training programs were only 8 weeks long and the ALL crossed the finish line injury free!
  • Inspired over 1000 women who attended talks I gave for Cycle the WAVE, YWCA Dress for Success, Mamcon, Business Among Moms, BPW and multiple other Women's organizations
  • The horses, mine and others horses, have worked with well over 200 clients since we began. I've partnered with horses to work with clients in WA, OR, CA, CO, AZ, VA and Canada
  • More than 300 people have attended one of my Guided Shamanic Journeys over the last 6 months
  • Close to 1000 people have attended one of my multiple presentations I did for Amazon, Starbucks and Club Corp (the owner of Columbia Tower Club).
  • Emotionally supported 300 campers for the weekend for Camp Souldust

Doing the math quickly I have personally touched around 5000 lives in the past 25 years. In turn those people have touched the lives of at least one other and so on.

One might think "WOW Jennifer you must be so incredibly proud of yourself!"

The fact is that for most of my life I felt the overwhelming NEED to be twice as good as everyone else simply to feel HALF as worthy. I held the belief that my worth and value was tied directly to making sure that others NEVER felt as unwanted, unworthy and undeserving as I felt every single day.

There have been moments in time when I got stuck in the lie that it didn't matter whether or not I lived or died. To be honest I used to have that thought a LOT but haven't had that thought in many years. I used to have it a LOT before my divorce.

The truth is that for many years I didn't allow myself to feel pride for what I had accomplished with inspiring my Athletes to achieve something they didn't think they were capable of. I kept saying in my head "It's not like I've helped 500 people across the finish line of their first fitness event."

One day I came to the realization that by not CELEBRATING the achievement I was dishonoring every single one of my Athletes. I no longer feel that unrelenting drive to perform, I’ve let that go. I know my worth, I know my value and I know how truly deserving I am.

I am enough.

And so are YOU!

I have always held a FIERCE belief in every one I've ever worked with. I saw how very BRILLIANT, LOVEABLE, CAPABLE and WORHTY they truly were. I held that belief for them until they could hold it for themselves.

I still hold beliefs FERCELY for my clients until they can claim them as their own. I usually don't have to hold them for very long until they take them from me.

Do yourself and the World a favor by taking a moment to look at all the lives YOU have touched, like me you may be surprised by the number you come up with.

The world NEEDS the special brand of Magic that only YOU bring to this World.

Huge Love,

Jennifer Malocha
