Tired of hiding in FB

 Finally this morning I had enough of trying to hide the truth in FB. I wanted to not be friends with my current co-workers but I did. Then I didn’t want to put anything on my profile/bio about the life coaching thing. A ICA graduate Tabitha friended me and I said, ‘f**k it.’  I wasn’t going to be friends will ICA people but this is ridiculous not use something as huge as fb for all the potential it brings to my networking. Just because I am scared that my current supervisor might find out and so what if she does. Striving to sublimate my income isn’t something she can criticize me for especially when she knows what I make. And that I don’t live in a dual income household.  And I despite my frustration over my finances, I take responsibility for choosing my current career. For weeks I have felt like 2 different people. The cook and the coach student and frustrated that I can’t share with my co-workers my excitement over my coach training. Sure I shared with a few cause I can’t keep a secret. And ‘No’ I am not going to run in to work and tell my supervisor about my schooling. But if she finds out oh well. Since realistically I will be coaching PT for a few years. I plan on working there for a while.

On fb I took it a step further than just friending fellow coaches. I changed my profile to include ICA and put my blog in my profile. It feels very liberating but at the same time a little scary. But moving past our fears my favorite aspect of coaching.
