Very good. I am proud of you. I know it is not easy.

Don't hate yourself. Celebrate yourself as a woman who is taking charge of her life and future. You *do* deserve to be the leader of your own life. And that is just what you will do. I am sure of it.

I think part of the reason the DB coaches (and this is simply my speculation) often give different advice than forum members is the time constraints a DB coaching session has. One can only jam so much in an hour (or whatever the time frame of a session is). Here on the boards you can really expand on feelings, actions, situations and experiences without time constraints so "more stuff" is brought to light. I am not saying the DB coach is wrong or way off base but in order for them to give you the best plan of action it is crucial they have all the facts.
