Qld AustraliaI am a 53 year old grandmother of 3. I have 4 beautiful daughters, one with special needs. I’m a scuba diver and love riding motorcycles.
After a horrible divorce, I decided to leave the state I was in and move across the country to a job that I thought at the time was my dream job. After just three months at this ‘fly in, fly out’ FIFO job, I was made redundant due to no fault of my own.
Then, I secured what I thought was an amazing job and was excited to start as I would be home every night to my fur babies. Well, it was a rough start; there was no training. The superintendent left after three months, and the old one came back. She clearly didn’t like me from the first day. Her energy was just horrible. She used to say things like, “Do you feel like you fit in here?” All this did was make me feel insecure in my role and nervous.
Long story short, I lost my job a few days before my probation was about to end. I was in shock, in disbelief, and heartbroken as I gave my all at this job. After this, I fell into a deep, dark hole of depression and fear. With no money coming in, how was I going to survive? I’m 53 with no savings, no job, and feeling no hope. I wanted to just give up. I started to feel pain all over my body, and this made me even more depressed.
Then I glanced at my audiobooks, thinking how am I going to afford this anymore, and listened to The Secret again. It truly has inspired me. Four months later, I’m feeling no more pain. I wake up every day feeling grateful for the new job that I will be starting soon, for the new home that I will be moving into soon, and for the love my fur babies have shown me.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you so very much for these wonderful books that I listen to every single day. I am always welcoming all the abundance that I have, and that is heading my way. I am so very grateful. Thank you again!
