Nicky Peet was one of Sarah Centrella's first international life coaching clients, and is featured in her book Hustle Believe Receive.  Nicky lives in France, and is using the #HBRMethod to change her financial situation, going from struggling single mom, to successful business owner.  This is her story...

"Where do I start? I remember falling upon Sarah’s website just before my divorce in 2010. I was pulled in by her straightforward way of talking about #FutureBoards. 

My life went downhill rapidly. Post-divorce I only made a tiny wage trying to support my two children, and living in France. I struggled and struggled, but through those struggles I began to create a dream –helping others be positive and find inner happiness. But with 5000 euros in debt, my ideas seemed somehow pointless.

I followed Sarah, and began to write a gratitude diary (#ThinkIT) and change the way I thought about my dream. Then I saw on Facebook that Sarah was offering free trial coaching! This seemed like a gift from heaven! I was her first paying public coaching client, and I saw the #HBRMethod in its early stages. Sarah really helped me to drive my dream, to adapt myself to circumstances but keep going, never let go (#TheHustle).  She helped me through the hard times and really understood where I was going. My dream was to have a B&B, or home where I could run workshops on inner happiness and Reiki (#WriteIt). Later Sarah launched the #HBRBootcamp, and invited me to the very first one! This was my #FutureBoard coming to life in front of my eyes! With the boot camp my vision began to evolve, as I got back in touch with my childhood dream (#DreamIT) of art, my passion for color, and Reiki. Through the steps of the #HBRMethod my dream took on a new shape; helping others heal through art, color and Reiki. The perfect fit.  My money issues continued to plague me however, but I persevered with my mottos (#ChangeThe VoicesInYourHead) and changing my beliefs about money.

I am now running workshops from home, helping people get creative, and I’m being asked to do other workshops in other places. I am also hosting a retreat on colour and art healing next year, and am working on an online colour course, where we learn how to use colour in our lives to heal. I am also planning online workshops on creativity, local craft workshops for the French in English, and more and more people are asking for Reiki treatments.

My money issues? What money issues!!? For the fourth month running, I have money at the end of the month, I can pay my bills, even the surprise ones! No more nasty letters in the post, and I don’t fret if I want to buy something. My teaching work (my “day job” whilst my business builds) is so busy! For the first time ever, I know I will have a lot of work in January- normally a dead month. (#ManifestThat!)

Each day doesn’t seem much but when I look back and see the journey I have been on and how my life has changed since applying the #HBRMethod, there is no comparison. #HBR gets you focussed, keeps you on tracks and gets you where you want to be!"
