Welcome to "Personal Growth for Me" website! My passion for this subject has been fueled by the personal challenges I have gone through in the past few years. Also, my own personal education has created interest and information in this area.

My emotional, spiritual and relational growth was held back for many years because of some hurts from which I had not healed. I realize now that I lived for many years without understanding what a limitation this was on my own growth. Then unexpectedly some challenging experiences of life thrust me into a situation where I felt totally out of control, powerless to handle it, but unable to change it.

Most people respond to life challenges in one of three ways. First, they may try putting on a mask that says, “I can handle this myself” and attempt to solve it with their own strength. Second, they might search for ways to run from their uncomfortable feelings, whether it’s through busyness, addictions or denial. Or third, they may seize the opportunity as a time for growth.

Many of us have tried all three! However, the only one that really works – for any period of time – is the choice to allow the challenge to be a time of growth. What a beautiful gift it is when we turn something that could have negatively impacted us into something that helps us instead. I encourage you to join me on this journey toward personal growth and wholeness!
