Anxiety and Unwanted Habits? Join the Little School of Big Change with Dr. Amy Johnson

Anxiety and Unwanted Habits? Join the Little School of Big Change with Dr. Amy Johnson

In 2018 I was an overwhelmed and anxious mess, a true shell of my former self. Life was so good, on paper but my mind, heart, and soul were a disaster. I was very fortunate to come across Dr. Amy Johnson in a frantic search for help. In what she said, I heard something that hit me deep within my core, my soul. I signed up for her Little School of Big Change and although I was not sure what she was talking about at first, slowly my life began to change in little and big ways. I stopped trying to fix myself, my relationships improved and I felt love, and more importantly, I felt that I was worthy of love. Since 2018, I’ve given up on willpower, and I no longer white-knuckle my way through the day. I know that I am resilient and I know without a shadow of a doubt that life is meant to be lived and not trudged through. I highly recommend if you have anxiety, panic, or an unwanted habit that you take the leap and sign up for the Guided Course of the Little School of Big Change which starts February 7, 2022.  I can honestly say that you will not be the same person after 6 weeks and that is just the beginning. Because I feel so strongly about this course and all you will see: If you sign up, by February 7, 2022, I am personally offering you  1:1 guidance in addition to what you will learn through the course. This will be in the form of email support as well as 3 private coaching sessions through the 6 weeks. I am very proud to be an affiliate with my mentor and friend, Dr. Amy Johnson. I would be most grateful if you decide to sign up that you use my link which is linked below or through my linktree. https://dramyjohnson.com/events/lsbc-spring-registration-page/?utm_campaign=lsbc&ref=patriciajoyce OR https://linktr.ee/soulworkwithpatricia PRIVATE GROUP  https://www.facebook.com/groups/817950735793822
