Hi, I’m Pat. Here’s a virtual scent-free hug to you! Welcome to my website. I’m so pleased we found each other. You may be asking yourself, “What the heck is a Life Improvement Enthusiast?” I provide life improvement solutions for those who are ready to receive them. More specifically, I’m in the business of encouraging, inspiring, mentoring, and coaching those individuals who are ready to make positive choices with the goal of improving their lives in the areas of health and wellness. I believe you’re never too old to become your best self and live out your dreams. If you’re looking for perfect – stop reading right now. I’m not your gal.
As a Baby Boomer, I’m still learning to overcome the struggles and challenges that I’m encountering along the journey to better overall health – mind, body, and spirit. I would love to share solutions with you as I discover them. I’m not a licensed medical professional, but I am confident that as a caregiver myself I have years of personal experience residing on the bottom of the priority list. I have found that having personal support and accountability is vital to re-positioning yourself to the top of the priority list. Contrary to popular belief, it is not selfish to take care of yourself first; it is absolutely necessary or you won’t be living your best life. I’m on a mission to help YOU move yourself up to the top of your priority list and become YOUR best self!
I get you! I know you’re exhausted after working a full day and caregiving.
The hard reality is that God gave us one body, and we must take the best care of it that we can. After the loss of my brother, who was only 55 years old, I realized that my own retirement life was not guaranteed. I started my own journey to better health soon thereafter, and I’m slowly counting down the years remaining until I can retire from my full time “cubicle” career position. My health goal is ongoing, and I’m still not where I’d like it to be – I’m human. I dislike exercise that is not fun. I struggle, I fall, I get up, and I start over again. I’m not perfect, and I definitely haven’t seen my abs in decades.
All too often I know what I’m supposed to do, but I just can’t seem to stay motivated to keep doing it. That’s when I know to look deeper inward for the solution. I sincerely believe that overall health and wellness begins from within. When my internal mindset is out of whack my external choices will follow. I have learned that we must start by forgiving ourselves, stop beating ourselves up, and taking the action steps necessary to live better one day at a time. I still must remind myself of this daily.
If you can relate, and would like to work with me, here’s what you can expect working with me as your coach and mentor: I will say it like it is, I will always try to see the humor in everything, and I will work hard to help you achieve YOUR desired results.
You’re in the right place if you are ready to: invest in yourself, make some positive changes, let me push you off the couch to get started, and stay accountable.
The solutions I currently offer include: coaching, mentoring, and faith-based, self-study personal development online training solutions.
You’re still here? I’m so glad! To reward you for reading this far here’s a fun random tidbit about me: When I was growing up in New York I once shoved a maple tree seed up my nose because I was told it was a nose-snapper. Ma finally realized something must be wrong when my incessant talking started sounding a lot like a winter mitten was over my nose!
Please contact me to let me know how best I can serve you. I look forward to working with you to become your best self and live out your dreams.
