Ep 27 Alyssa Hughes: Navigating the Expectation Maze
Episode description
Our featured guest for todays episode is Alyssa Hughes- I am a wife, mother to a three year old daughter, dog mom to two crazy pups, certified life coach, and entrepreneur. My journey to becoming a life coach was in 2021 during a difficult time in my life. I had a one year old in a world that didn't feel normal, my relationship with my husband was at a low point, my mom was battling her cancer journey, and I felt like I wanted to throw in the towel at work on a daily basis. So, I began to do something about it and began focusing on myself by getting life coaching.
I quickly began to realize the importance of life coaching but also how much I would love to be able to help others. In 2022, I became certified and started my practice and the rest is history.
Through my life coaching, I help women take back their power in their life by not allowing themselves to be a victim of their circumstance. You can find more on my services at www.alyssahugheslifecoaching.com as well as find me on Facebook and Instagram at Alyssa Hughes Life Coaching & Consulting."
