Hello, my name is Shirley Polak and I would like to share with you my story that led me to becoming a mind coach.
I was born in Israel in 1970 and received a great gift when I was adopted soon after my birth. I was a very happy girl. I did and said what I liked and wanted for nothing. But when I got older, I started facing problems with my parents and my boyfriends; I wasn't happy with my job and didn't make much money. I was very stressed and not happy.
One day, when I was 30, I felt a sharp pain in my hand and as I had never been sick I didn't pay attention to it. After a month the pain got stronger and spread into different parts of my body. My doctor sent me for some blood tests that showed I have Rheumatism. I was shocked. I didn't know how I was going to approach it and what would be the solution. My life changed completely; I was disabled. I researched a lot, looking for only alternative solutions. I knew myself as a go-getter and i wasn't ready to give up.
Then a friend told me about his coach and how she positively changed his life. I met her and understood that the main reason for my disease is the pressured life I was living and being unhappy. She assured me that by working on my mind, meaning my thoughts and my emotions, I would get new results that would bring me to living a happier life.
I started working with her right away! She coached me for 4 years: once a week and sometimes, twice a week. I was ready to commit to my own life. I was receiving a lot of answers and learning different ways to live the life I always wanted. At the age of 35 I was cured and lived the life I always wanted.
I realized the GIFT I had received – the ability to understand the mind and how, by controlling it, our lives can improve drastically. I started responding to requests for personal and business advice, voluntarily. I did this instinctively, without the title of ‘Coach’ or ‘Consultant’. I simply wanted to help. The positive results reported back to me have led me to share this gift on full time basis, in a business context.
In 2010 I completed the course work to learn coaching formally and became certified. My practice is a combination of my experience, my studies and my passion.
Now, I'm here for you...
