Hi & Welcome! I'm Jenna Watson, Life Coach...

---

Allow Myself to Introduce…Myself: I’m a certified Martha Beck Wayfinder coach, specializing in life transformation. In my capacity as a life transformation coach, I want to point out a crappy truth right now. Ready? Here it is: we're taught to DREAM BIG. But sometimes “dreaming big” about how different you could be/look/feel/act, or how bold/adventurous/different/awesome your life could be, is a major drag.
I mean, how fun is it to DREAM BIG when it never frickin’ comes true?!
Thinking and dreaming is a great way to get started on a path of change if you know how to put those dreams into action. But many of us (and I speak from experience, here) just don’t know how to go about making the change happen. Hell, sometimes we can’t even identify what it is we really want!My journey to becoming a coach started in earnest when I was, as the kids say, “going through some things.” Simply put, I was f*cking miserable. My biggest problem was one I could barely articulate at the time: I felt like I was two entirely different people. I couldn’t even really explain it further than that. I just knew that I chafed at many parts of my life as it actually was, while yearning for something it most definitely wasn’t. Inside, I felt like a creative, brave, wild, free person in charge of creating my destiny. In reality, I was someone that felt trapped as I let my boring-but-successful life take over while I just went along for the ride. Here are just a few of the ways this “two-part-Jenna” expressed itself:

• accepting  bad relationships that I knew were surface-level at best; 
• entering into a marriage I knew was doomed but went through with anyway; 
• eating out of boredom and frustration and therefore living inside a body that looked nothing like how I perceived myself from the inside;
• losing over 80 pounds and getting in the best shape of my life, only to regain half the weight because I didn't trust myself to maintain that version of  me forever;
• hiding my tattoos (that I love) so I could fit a corporate America persona (that I hated); 
• consistently moving up the ladder in a career that looked great on paper but wanting to stab my eyes out every single day I went to work or even thought about it too much;
• dreaming of what my life would’ve been like if only, I’d ________ (fill in various and sundry blanks, here)

This “duality” of mine felt like a splinter – it was annoying and sometimes it hurt and I was constantly reminded of it. So, to pull the thing out (metaphorically, of course), I started by reading various “self-help-y” books and trying to incorporate their techniques. That helped some, but it did next to nothing in terms of making actual changes. Next, I hired a coach myself, who helped me see things in a way I’d never been able to before and who held me accountable to what I said I’d do. All that ended up with me taking the training to become a coach, and I can finally say that I know a thing or two about how to identify and articulate your biggest desires and how to go get them. If you can relate to any of this, I would love to talk to you. I want to help you see that you can know EXACTLY who you are and where you want to be, so you can love the f*ck out of life! If you read all that and you're still thinking, "OK Jenna, but what is a life coach, for real tho, yaknowwhatimean?" then head on over to my blog and read all about it in my post "What the f&*k is a life coach, anyway?"
