In this discussion, Natalie Fayman shared her 4-step process to help women reconnect with themselves. Whether it be from all the roles we fill and people we serve, or after experiencing struggle or trauma, her process can help get to the core of who we are.

Natalie is a woman who’s constantly reinventing herself. After more than 3 decades as a veterinarian, exhaustion and burnout forced her to reconsider her future. She was overweight from a lifetime of managing her emotional distress with food. So she found a Life Coach to learn how to get control of her emotional eating. What she actually learned was how to become a calmer, happier, less stressed-out person... and the weight loss happened all by itself.

Natalie realized that Coaching changes lives. When the pandemic arrived, she saw her opportunity and entered a coach training program. After completing her certification she found the next level of her coaching education: Positive Intelligence. This program transformed her understanding of the uniquely human behavior of self-sabotage, and gave her the tools to change it.

Now, with years of training and decades of experience in a high-stress career, Natalie is on a mission to teach others how to live calmer, happier, and more stress-free lives. She wants all women to learn how to quiet the voice of their self-judgment and rediscover the amazing person they were truly meant to be. As a certified Positive Intelligence coach, Natalie’s mission and inspiration is teaching women to meet life’s challenges with resilience and positivity.
