Meet Jackie van Meyeren

My name is Jackie – Jax for short. If you are reading this, you are looking for something, someone, somehow to help change your life. I’d like to tell you a little about myself so that you can understand that I have been there!

I am so blessed as I am happily married to a loving, caring soulmate, have two wonderful sons and a loving, accomplished daughter-in-law, beautiful grandchildren who are the apple of granny’s eye and a pack of adorable, joyful furkids. I enjoyed a successful 30+ year corporate career during which I was blessed with the opportunity, during the past 15 years, to formally mentor the most amazing colleagues as an adjunct to my normal duties. I realised I had been guiding people throughout my whole life. It started off with family, then friends and colleagues who would come to me for advice and guidance on personal or business matters. It seemed the most natural thing for me to provide options, guidance and advice for them to deal with the issues they were facing. And I always received great feedback from them.

So with all of these blessing, what could I possibly have to worry about?

Since early childhood I suffered from anxiety and fear. I felt worthless – less than. I was never going to be good enough. So why even try? I was constantly afraid of failure - as a learner, a student, a mom, a partner, an employee, a person. I was afraid of failing at life. I suffered from PTSD due to several work-related armed robberies and an armed home invasion. Although I was successful in my career, I worked crazy hours, had constant deadlines, was constantly provided with new opportunities, which just re-created the cycle. I realised I did not really have a career - I only had a job. My bi-annual and monthly reviews reflected that I excelled but I still did not feel I was doing enough. Due to all of this, I was constantly exhausted and fatigued, totally stressed out, depressed and anxious. At times, I had to deal with uncontrollable anger. My immune system took a terrible knock and every flu season I developed pneumonia. I suffered with severe migraines and stress-related headaches.

I did the obvious things: I saw my GP and specialists who prescribed medication just so that I could cope. I tried psychotherapy several times, which helped for a period of time after each series of sessions. Although I learnt certain coping skills, the underlying issues were not successfully dealt with. The problems kept on coming back.

I was left searching for a lasting solution. I did not want to continue taking medication just to be able to cope for the rest of my life. I was tired of feeling anxious, depressed, and stressed. I wanted to be free of the medication merry-go-round, but also knew that if I didn't take some form of treatment then my life would continue on its downward spiral and who knows where it might have ended up.

So, what was this solution?

I felt unworthy, fearful, sad and angry! I was searching for joy and contentment. I wanted to love myself and know that I was worthy. I wanted to live my best life and bring joy to those around me. I wanted to reach my full potential!

I found Transformation Life Coaching which changed my life. The work has improved every area of my life, and I want to invite you to experience it for yourself!
