Hi Teri , thank you so much for joining us today. We’re thrilled to learn more about your journey, values and what you are currently working on. Let’s start with an ice breaker: What’s the most surprising thing you’ve learned about your customers?
I’ve learned amazing things about my clients here’s a few: 1) they are Profoundly interesting, 2) talented and 3) overall, Beautiful people.
Here’s where the surprise happens…
They’re not aware of it and this is where I come in… I Lovingly, Guide them Spiritually, as I introduce each of them to the goodness they possess which, ignites their, self-discovery of the Beauty they behold.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I am Teri Lynn, aka Ms Teri!
A Faithfilled, Joyous, Prayer, Warrior who slays the enemy for myself and others, on a daily basis, through my various roles: Mother, Wife, Author, Media TV/Radio/Podcast Host, Inspirational, Speaker, Minister and Christian, Mental Health Therapist.
I coach, willing individuals and couples to a higher mindset, to grow beyond trauma, grief, anxiety, bitterness, disappointment, dysfunction, depression and difficulties, etc. that, keeps one from, achieving their personal best.
I lovingly, accompany them to a Peacefilled, state of mind and lifestyle that awaits.
On this journey you will acquire a deeper knowledge of yourself. You will learn best practices to shift & navigate differently for purposeful, positive results; alongside, a deeper, Spiritual, relationship that elevates your level of Integrity in every area of your life from personal to professional with growing and thriving outcomes.
The transformation is uplifting and intoxicating, as you begin to embrace inner Joy, Peace and the taste of Triumph!!
Appreciate your sharing that. Let’s talk about your life, growing up and some of topics and learnings around that. What breaks the bonds between people—and what restores them?
This has been my experience:
What breaks bonds between people is one’s lack of empathy and the refusal to acknowledge one’s own short comings…
Unfortunately, the world doesn’t play fair because often, people move through life with old, beliefs and practices that are outdated and self-destructive.
People make choices out of fear and and selfish, behavior trying to get ahead.
We are living in the 21st century, a time that teaches us to feel, protect and respect ourselves & others personal space & choices just the same for the Greater Good!! When people lack self-awareness, knowledge and fail to do “their healing-work”, what we call “compassion” begins to breakdown and the bond is weakened and can no longer endure the lack of balanced support. One of the two ends up carrying the heavy, emotional, lifting that becomes unbearable. Leading to breakage of the original, intended, bond/unit.
Don’t get me wrong, I do believe that pearls of wisdom is something we all thirst for… However, the question is, are the tools (from wisdom) you are using Productive, Healing and Empowering? If they are to the contrary calculating, selfish and deceitful then, it is not purposeful or pure of Heart.
Which will sadly lead to division and no hope for restoration.
What did suffering teach you that success never could?
That I am not the Author, GOD is!!
I am a Willing Participant of my own Life’s Direction.
We ALL will at some point, endure pain, setbacks and heartbreak. It’s how we move through it where the lesson takes hold..
My mantra is this.. As long as, I sincerely do the right thing with a pure heart and become a better human being day by day; using the time I have to learn more, live more and laugh more, overtime, all things will work together for my good.
My Pastor teaches that “‘Faith’ is Heaven’s currency!!”
Amen
So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. Is the public version of you the real you?
Yes!! It’s the BEST, I’ve GOT!!
I actually began teaching that ideology over 20 years ago.
It started with teens and I carried and crafted it, to encompass my adult client, curriculum.
It’s such a Healthy way of moving…
Impersonating can be self-destructive.
Okay, so before we go, let’s tackle one more area. If you retired tomorrow, what would your customers miss most?
The safety, connection, laughter, Agreement & Goodness!
