Why Did I Bother Going to Medical School?

I didn't realize that I would burn out after leaving medical school. I was a stress-addict. I pushed myself out of my comfort zone over and over again. I always wanted to become "better", never happy with who I was. Well, trying to be "better" just burned me out in 2002. After moving every three years after medical school because of my husband's job, we decided to build an eco-home in a small town. I had to "re-invent" my practice all over again after leaving the last job where I was very successful (position at UCLA).

After a year or two of housebuilding, resentment kicked in and it sent my body down the tubes. I developed fibromyalgia. I was the sole bread-winner at that point as my husband was busy building the eco-home. I would work, then put on some boots and gloves to then peel the bark off the logs on our property. My passion, skating, had to take a back seat to the "dream house", or so I thought. I kept pushing and pushing until I could push no longer. I ended up coming home from work totally exhausted and slept 14 hours a night over the weekends.

At the office, I'd do my best taking care of patients, and it wasn't until I became suicidal that I finally admitted to my husband that I needed outside help. He started taking over all the chores. I had to work because our house wasn't built yet. I just worked, came home and slept. That's all I did for months.

My Dad Cried...

Later with the help of holistic healers, I discovered that the true reason for my illness was my unhappy marriage. We had outgrown each other. The house was his dream not mine. I would have been happy with a condo! It was hard, but I asked for a split. My parents were very upset. I had never seen my dad cry up until that point. They thought I was making a terrible mistake. But deep down I knew that I felt like I was dying in my marriage.

I made the right choice. My healing has been miraculous. Not that it was very quick, but compared to most people with my diagnosis, I've not only recovered almost fully, but I can do more now than before! I still have pain and joint limitation and occasionally can't sleep, but I live a life of true joy, thanks to the personal growth that came with my illness.

Manifesting My Dream Love Partner

After my divorce, I set out to "create" my new reality of having a love/pair skating partner rolled into one. After learning a course in manifesting, I went through a lot of growth and manifested my "dream" love, James. He didn't figure skate then, but since he was an inline skater, he has learned amazingly quickly! so quickly that we won our very first Adult National Figure Skating Championships in 2008!

I decided to share with others how I successfully manifested my dream partner by writing a book, Creating Your Fairytale Love Life, and hosting a Law of Attraction in Love Radio show. Now, I'm a Law of Attraction speaker and trainer and have students from around the world.

My Story Of How I Got Into Network Marketing

I am a physician acupuncturist who came into MLM rather reluctantly. My sponsor was another doctor who told me about these little bandages that go over acupuncture points that help you electronically burn fat for energy. Since I am a competitive figure skater and had fibromyalgia (chronic pain and fatigue), I was intrigued, so I tried them.

These devices worked and they are completely "legal". I've sinced used every product of my company and I really enjoy them. It wasn't until I realized that I was keeping them a secret from my patients because I didn't want to "sell" them anything. But eventually, I could not longer ethically keep it a secret. These little patches are such a powerful healing modality, I just had to share them with my patients.

As I tried them out on my patients, and found great results, I became bolder in introducing them. Now, I have not been very good at MLM from the start as I had little guidance. My sponsor dropped out quickly and I built my entire organization myself practically with no help. But I didn't know what I was doing. I would just enthusiastically share the products. My mistake was not sharing the opportunity!

So now I am intending on attracting "business" people and not just users. My medical degree is a hindrance because others cannot imagine themselves duplicating my knowledge etc.

Recently, I created an e-book called the MLM Success Tracker, because I saw the need to track on a regular basis everything I "did" in MLM. I took my interest and expertise in counseling and personal growth and created this e-book that includes personal growth exercises. I got the idea from T. Harv Eker, my teacher, and bestselling author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind book. Harv's three-day Millionaire Mind Intensive changed my life. I highly recommend it to anyone intentioning to do well in a business!
