Carline’s biggest limiting belief and how she overcame this belief. Making time for self-care, the importance of setting up a daily regimen, and what Carline uses to invest in herself. Three Steps to Recapturing Your Spirit eGuide Carline’s words of wisdom to go from being hopeless to being more than capable of walking into your purpose. Carline’s Golden Phrases: You may hate me right now but you are going to love me when you are able to get up, walk, run and were able to get through this. As a mom you put your children first in everything you do and you don’t pay attention to what’s going on with yourself. It’s not about having that perfect plan where nothing will ever go wrong because things will go wrong, but when you have that plan in place you know where to pick up from. When you look at competition it’s not about how they do it, it’s about who they are because not everybody will resonate with you. I had to come to the realization that whoever relates to me will resonate with me and who ever doesn’t, wont. When I was laid off, I felt like I failed even though it wasn’t my fault. One of the things that I realized is that you cannot go through things by yourself; you have to surround yourself with positive like-minded people. Fail forward! Let yourself fail so that you can get there.
