I now KNOW, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you can overcome devastating childhood trauma, sexual molestation, physical & emotional abuse, empty nest syndrome, mid-life crisis and more. I know because I HAVE OVERCOME.

• Do you feel anxious or overwhelmed?
• Are you just plain tired pretty much all the time?
• Have you tried to figure out your “purpose” and come up blank?
• Do you feel a sense of unease and hopelessness?
• Have you tried conventional counseling and still feel like something is missing? And you still feel a whole variety of ways just messed up?

You are not alone. These are all questions I answered “yes” to before I discovered YOU University. Emotionally & spiritually I was drained. I didn’t know who I was or what my purpose was. I had been feeling as if I were on a constant downward spiral and didn’t know how to pull myself back up.

In my process of ‘trying to find myself’ when I hit rock bottom, I searched till I was numb trying to find some sort of magic fix. I read self-help books, went to counselors, and searched the internet. I discovered lots of stuff out there, but nothing that really clicked for me. In fact, I had just finished helping another woman launch her business based on The Law of Attraction and, although I strongly believe that we can attract what we want in our lives, there was something about her program that was missing for me. This was the case with all of the personal development programs I came across. I was simply unable to attract lovely, fulfilling things or people into my life. I know now that it was because I needed to first feel worthy enough to allow it.

It was around this time that I was drawn to one of my social networking friends who kept posting little comments that I found very inspiring and intriguing. I was so drawn to her posts, that I checked out the website she was promoting and discovered she was involved in this transformational program ~ YOU University. I simply had to know more. I responded to one of her posts and was then invited to have a call with Maia Berens, “ Wise Fairy Godmother” and creator of YOU University. After speaking with Maia, I knew this was introduced to me at just the right time and I enrolled.

Through my work in YOU University, I learned life tools that have healed me on so many levels! I love the woman I discovered myself to be. It was through this amazing, beautiful, profound journey that I learned why I was unable to attract what I wanted into my life. I learned how to forgive myself for past mistakes I had not been able to move beyond. I’ve learned tools for LIFE and I changed my entire perspective.

I am now moving beyond shame and anger and fear. All emotions I had been sweeping under the rug or running from my entire life. I now KNOW, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that people can overcome devastating childhood trauma, sexual molestation, physical and emotional abuse, empty nest syndrome, mid-life crisis and more. I know because I HAVE OVERCOME.

If any of the above seems anything like you, I’d like to share my experience and show you how you can live a life of purpose & meaning also. You can learn to love yourself and move beyond being “sick and tired of being sick and tired”. Love yourself and your life. You are worth it!

Please give me a call or email me with any questions you may have and to explore whether we’d be a good fit as your guide through YOU University.

Gina Bendel in response to assignment given coaches asking how YOU University changed their lives:

My life has changed for the better in the following ways:

• I am more aware of the physical manifestation of feelings that are not being expressed in a loving and healthy way.
• I realize when I need to use tools given to me through You U… The love letters, Finding the Gift, Monster letters, friend-in-deed
• I am beginning to really notice my thoughts – when I begin to see old “negative” thought patterns, I immediately begin to think “what tool would be best for me right now?” This helps me to shift more towards loving, positive thoughts more quickly.
• I am beginning to really look for ways to be more loving to myself – purposely choosing to take care of ME.
• I am definitely seeing and following my intuitive side much more than I was.
• I am much more aware of those around me who could really use the journaling community and coaching through You U. This inspires me to want to complete the training and have the ability to share with others – to make a difference that is meaningful – to contribute to the shift that this planet needs.
• Those closest to me are seeing the difference. I have had more people approach me to find out what it is that I am doing. I believe that it is obvious to others that I am feeling better about myself – even if they cannot really pinpoint what it is they are seeing. I know that I am sending out more positive thoughts and it shows.
• I am beginning to take steps necessary for better health.. I have started meditating, am drinking more water and have made the decision to quit smoking. I have researched and gathered information to help me in getting healthier.
• I am no longer afraid to fail – I realize now that life truly is a school and that I create what is manifested in my life. I will learn something valuable if I don’t succeed at something right away.
• I now realize that I need to recognize my willingness or lack thereof and to recommit to my decisions on a daily basis.
• I am excited about my future again!!
• I have learned that I am worthy… HUGE

This is an empowering thing Maia. I knew that I was changing and growing… I didn’t really think to take stock in it and now realize that the changes and the shifting is much greater than I could have imagined it would be! I truly believe this list could go on…
