I didn’t understand why I wasn’t happy. I had everything that we’re told we need to live happily ever after. I had followed the fairy tale formula, that we are all taught. I had finished school, got a good job, married a loving man, had wonderful kids and even bought our dream house, but still I wasn’t happy.

I wasn’t clinically depressed, but I still felt like an empty shell. I STILL had no energy, and it was still a struggle to get out of bed in the morning. I knew something was missing, but I didn’t know what. I wondered “isn’t there more to life than this? “

I knew I needed a MASSIVE change. If I didn’t do something, I feared I’d slide back into that terrible depression I’d experienced years before.
