Hi, I’m Lynnette LaRoche a mother of one, poet, writer and Corporate Transition Strategist. Chances are, if you’re reading this message, your story is probably similar to mine. I led a very successful career in the corporate world for over two decades and although on ‘paper’ I looked like I had it all together, I was miserable. My job paid me just enough to roll out of bed in the morning and head into the office, but I was complacent. I didn’t feel valued or appreciated and the more work I put in; I felt like the less I got out.
I have always been a dreamer. I recall sitting in my office one afternoon, gazing out the window and watching the birds fly by, thinking: “I’d love to be one of those birds. FREE. They were singing, and playing and truly embracing life.
I began to reflect on my own life. It was routine, boring, I felt semi-trapped and like I was always under a microscope. I decided to take this visualization exercise further and I started to think about all the things I love; the things that set my soul on fire. Travel, culture, language, dance, fashion, music, luxury experiences and most importantly, laughing. I couldn’t recall the last time I had a fall-on-the-floor belly laugh. I had dried up; I was no longer living, I was existing.
It was in this very moment I had my transformational breakthrough. “ENOUGH,” I thought to myself. It’s time I take control of my life and create a life that counts.
I made that promise to myself, and since that time I have travelled to over 20 countries, built a life that I never imagined I would be living, and helped countless women overcome the fear of the ‘unknown’ to do the same; transition out of their corporate careers so they can do what they actually want
I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life’s a bitch. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.
