Understanding how my brain works and where my brain wants to go, and so it's just given me that ability to have more awareness in everyday situations and not always listening to the first thought that comes into my head. To have someone just with that lens on to be like, uh, Lindsay, The Eastern Winds are around helping me with my routines as a, as a business owner. As I start to feel myself burning out or getting to exhaustion, I now really recognize what will help me in that situation. So I feel like I have become more confident in myself and in my abilities since we've been working together, where I feel like a different person now. Your superpower is just having this amazing helicopter view and helping me and your clients to see where We are believing our own made-up stories. So I would definitely recommend working with you.
