    Are You Ready to Reframe Your Story?

    Often we find ourselves caught up in the stories we tell without even realizing the negative impact they are having on our very core. It’s not until we become aware of this fact, that the story pauses and a new perspective is born. We go from believing we are unlucky, unworthy, or unloveable to believing that we are enough. This pause in our negative thought process changes the direction our story had us heading and makes room for our new beliefs to take hold. Reframing our thoughts and looking for a different perspective in our every day is where healing and happiness begin. Are you ready to reframe your story?

After completing her Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology, she found herself moving to the edge of the world, i.e., Ucluelet, to pursue her passion in baking and pastry. Now she is the manager and lead pastry chef for the Petro Bake Shop, with dreams of owning her own bakery by the ocean. Nikita has been across the world and visited places such as Japan, France, England and Ireland. While these grand adventures were primarily for exploration, her goal is to work and travel around the world as a pastry chef and learn new and fun recipes to bring back to her bakery, Serendipitous Sweets. Her motto is to spread an abundant amount of love and sunshine through food. When Nikita isn’t baking, she is often writing in her journal, basking in a ray of sunlight or exploring the wilderness in her backyard. https://www.instagram.com/nikitas.serendipitous.sweets/ ABOUT KATHERINE LORANGER  Certified Transformational Life Coach, best-selling author and founder of Katalyst Coaching, Katherine Loranger asserts to the bold and determined that life is theirs for the taking.  For over 25 years, Katherine has been driven to spark lasting, heartfelt transformation for fearless and fierce souls in progress… working to research, study and implement results-oriented principles and programs to incredible success.

    Owning Who You Are With Heather Abbott

    Heather’s mission is helping heart centered entrepreneurs take their place amongst the wealthy so we can “up-level” the world. She joins Katherine on My Dead Dragon this week to tell her story of owning who she is and knowing that she doesn’t need to be isolated and do it all by herself.   KEY TAKEAWAYS A lot of people need to make the decision to do it by themselves, but Heather needed to learn to stop finding things out for herself, and to just ask for help instead. Friends were so much better than feeling isolated. “I have overcome a 25 year marriage where I didn’t believe I was abused, but a week after I moved out, he shot himself in front of me. As I ran away I stopped and looked back to see if he had faked it. It was still another 4 months before I realised I had been severely mentally abused.“Heather says there are three kinds of freedom. They are health, freedom from oppression, and freedom of expression. Women in abusive relationships aren’t weak, they’re often some of the strongest people on the planet, protecting others. As bad as things get, it creates who you are. You’ll never take on more than you can handle.    BEST MOMENTS ‘I was meant to learn these things so I could help others’  ‘If you don’t like me that’s fine, the people who need me are going to be drawn to me’  ‘Denial is a survival strategy’  EPISODE RESOURCES  Newsletter Sign Up Link https://katalystcoaching.kartra.com/page/subscribe Free Downloadable Vision Mediation Link https://katalystcoaching.kartra.com/page/FreeMeditation Find Heather on LinkedIn https://www.hcabbott.ca/ ABOUT HEATHER ABBOTT Heather’s mission is helping heart centered entrepreneurs take their place amongst the wealthy so we can “up-level” the world.
