As a kid, I was different from most of my family.
I was emotional, sensitive, and intuitive. They were more practical or intellectual.
The school I went to in France emphasized rational and analytical intelligence.
This is the case with the French education system in general.
As I reflect back on it now, I did not feel like I fully fit in or that being me was okay.
So, I started to work hard to “fit in,” to feel loved and seen…and to prove I was “intelligent.” In school, I worked hard to be #1, unconsciously hoping I would finally be seen and accepted by doing so.
But, it felt like it was never enough, so I kept working harder and harder…to be the best, to succeed, and to be seen.
To belong.
All of this was unconscious, yet it was driving a lot of my decisions and ways of being. Including my college and grad school choices.
And ultimately my career.
I followed the same patterns of behavior in my career choices for 10+ years.
Either choosing career options to prove I was smart enough.
Or, when doing work I liked, such as User Experience research, putting lots of pressure on myself…
- to prove I was intelligent enough.
- to belong and be accepted by my colleagues and my managers, the same way I was longing to be accepted in my family.
I achieved great success in my career and life, working for one of the biggest Internet companies in the world at the time–Yahoo!–, becoming bilingual, and moving from France to Canada, and then the US.
But I reached a point where the “proving to be smart” was just not working anymore.
I was miserable at work. I knew this was not the right career path for me long term. This was just not sustainable.
Something else was calling me.
Something, where I could be my full self at work–100% myself–without having to prove anymore, and where I could use ALL my natural gifts and fulfill my purpose.
Something that would allow me to leave my mark in the world, not someone else’s mark.
Can you relate?
⏩ Are you a high achiever who is unconsciously using your career or business to prove you are intelligent enough? or to belong? to fit in?
⏩ Have your career decisions up to now been driven by that desire?
⏩ Or, if you somewhat like your work, is there still a big part of you who is trying to prove that who you are is enough?
⏩ Are you in a career where you cannot bring your whole self? and you have to pretend or put a mask on, leaving some parts of you behind?
I feel the pain of that. I get it.
You are not alone. I’ve been there… and also, out of it.
I know the path out of this!
Through my own journey, my training, and through guiding hundreds of people in my coaching practice, I’ve discovered the keys to getting out of this vicious cycle once and for all…

“Working with Isabelle has proven one of the best investments I’ve made in myself, ever.
I have so much clarity about myself now – I really know who I am, like who I am, and understand myself on a much deeper level. I know what I want to do, and I’ve developed my timeline for achieving it. To think back to how lost and confused I was at the beginning of the year compared to now, I can’t believe how much I’ve grown. I don’t even recognize the woman I was four months ago. I am thankful I trusted the approach and stuck with it. Most of all, I am grateful for Isabelle and her process.”

P.P.S Here is Chris’ full testimonial.
“Working with Isabelle has proven one of the best investments I’ve made in myself, ever. While I’ve worked for a wonderful company for almost 10 years, with lots of opportunities, I haven’t felt fulfilled for quite a long time. I felt adrift, without direction, and really started to question what it was I actually want to do.
I opted for the combined group and one-on-one session option. Everything done over the course of the class builds on itself: homework done on our own, group calls and workshops, and then one-on-one sessions with Isabelle.
We’d reference our homework in class, often breaking out into smaller groups to do additional activities. Over the course, we got to know our fellow classmates, giving and receiving feedback, helping each other throughout the process. The additional perspectives were an unexpected bonus for me, and greatly appreciated. My biggest breakthroughs happened during our one-on-one calls. Isabelle is a deeply caring, intuitive, and nurturing coach with a unique approach – she has this way of calling you out in a loving and empathetic way that makes you step back and reassess, but without any judgement. One of the biggest breakthroughs was learning how to sit with my emotions, really feel them, and then realize I had the answers within myself all along.
I have so much clarity about myself now – I really know who I am, like who I am, and understand myself on a much deeper level. I know what I want to do, and I’ve developed my timeline for achieving it. To think back to how lost and confused I was at the beginning of the year compared to now, I can’t believe how much I’ve grown. I don’t even recognize the woman I was four months ago. I am thankful I trusted the approach and stuck with it. Most of all, I am grateful for Isabelle and her process.”

“I don’t have what it take to be an entrepreneur.”
“I don’t have what it takes to be a leader.”
“I don’t have what it takes to….” (Fill in the blank)
I hear that a lot among my clients. This deeply ingrained limiting belief that we don’t have what it takes to be or do something we are longing for. This stops us from going after what we truly want and doing the Career of our dreams.
I had one of these myself four years ago as I was exploring my career options after being laid off from Yahoo! I was thinking: “I don’t have what it takes to be an entrepreneur and start my own business” even if, deep down, it is what I was longing for.
Today, 4 years after, I ‘m happy to say that I founded my own business and I have a thriving coaching practice. I’m the CEO of my business! It is mind blowing for me to think about how I was able to turn my limiting belief around to do what I love the most.
I want to help you turn your limiting beliefs around too! So that you can make your career dreams come alive.
In this video, I share 5 of my favorite tips to identify and go beyond your limiting beliefs, so that you can do what you love the most.
Enjoy and share what you discovered for yourself in the comments below!
