Empowerment for Immigrants

My dear immigrant friend, do you struggle building genuine relationships with Americans?  If you feel misunderstood or disconnected, it is important to recognize that your own thoughts and perceptions are contributing to this feeling... not necessarily the behavior of Americans you come in contact with.  In this episode I challenge the opinions I hear often in the immigrant circles: "Americans are fake." "They are not that smart." "They are judgemental toward immigrants." "They don't like people with accents." The relationship we immigrants have with Americans is shaped by our thoughts about them, not by the Americans themselves. This is great news, because if you have struggled buidling genuine relationships with Americans, you can control and change our perspective. In this episode I walk you through the process I guide my clients through. To join our Facebook Group "Pogaduchy na Emigracji" click here:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1106767306991881/SIGN UP FOR FREE COURSE ON HOW TO FEEL GOOD HANGING OUT WITH AMERICANS WHEN YOU ARE THE ONLY IMMIGRANT IN THE GROUP: https://shorturl.at/chyM2Need my help?

My wonderful fellow immigrant, did you ever think about the consequences of going through the difficulties in your life? We all sometimes feel tired and overwhelmed, so today I want to remind you of the immense strength you have within you. The challenges you've faced in your life are a proof of your resilience. You are much stronger than you think. Precisely because of your immigrant journey you have an incredible ability to adapt, to cope with difficulties that might seem insurmountable to others. Your determination, empathy, and openness are qualities that set you apart from others. You are capable of overcoming any obstacle. Be gentle and kind to yourself... but remember that your strength is immense. You are amazing, don't forget that. With all my heart, Life Coach Ewelina.To join our Facebook Group "Pogaduchy na Emigracji" click here:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1106767306991881/SIGN UP FOR FREE COURSE ON HOW TO FEEL GOOD HANGING OUT WITH AMERICANS WHEN YOU ARE THE ONLY IMMIGRANT IN THE GROUP: https://shorturl.at/chyM2Need my help?

Have you ever felt trapped in your life? Like... you know you should change, but you just can't?  In this episode I share with how our brains in a bid for survival amplify the fear of change, often leading to stagnation. If you are an immigrant struggling with cultural disconnect and language barriers I want to take you on a journey of self discovery.  By revisiting our past and acknowledging our growth we can shatter these barriers. You and I, as immigrants we have already mastered the art of adaptation. Let's leverage this strength, redefine our relationship with fear, embrace change and celebrate our growth. Here is the link to your video self coaching exercize: https://youtu.be/ioO1rvXbPkASIGN UP FOR FREE COURSE ON HOW TO FEEL GOOD HANGING OUT WITH AMERICANS WHEN YOU ARE THE ONLY IMMIGRANT IN THE GROUP: https://shorturl.at/chyM2Need my help?

Have you ever considered how the stress of your immigrant journey has impacted your health?  Have you ever thought about the connection between your physical health and emotional well being?  This episode with Anna Lakomy will reveal some astonishing insights; she shares her battle with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome ( PCOS) and how it transformed her perspective on health, career, and self-worth. Anna's journey is more than a story about a health condition.

We talk about her fight against her physical symptoms and the traditional medical system, and how this struggle led her to an unexpected revelation about her career success and personal worth. The conversation takes a deeper turn as we explore the struggle to balance masculine and feminine energy. We talk about societal pressures, inherited survival instincts and the power of self-compassion. We share insights on healing the inner child and fostering self-love. Consider asking yourself these questions:What relationship do I have with myself? Am I being a good friend to myself or do I keep on criticizing myself? If so why? Am I feeling safe? What is creating a sense of safety for me? Am I safe within me right now? What do I need right now?SIGN UP FOR FREE COURSE ON HOW TO FEEL GOOD HANGING OUT WITH AMERICANS WHEN YOU ARE THE ONLY IMMIGRANT IN THE GROUP: https://shorturl.at/chyM2Need my help?

Do you ever say to yourself: “Gosh I'm such a loser!”, “Why did I do that? I'm so stupid.”,  “I don't deserve to be happy.” ? Are you having a hard time saying “no” and standing up to others? Setting boundaries?Do you ever compare yourself to others?Do you struggle building healthy relationships?If you said yes to these questions, you might be suffering from low self value. Low self-value affects our relationships, sense of self-worth, how we navigate life, and how we express ourselves. There are many reasons why this could be happening:unresolved trauma,loneliness,internalized shame,expectations from parents or caregivers,relationship changes like divorce or break up,peer pressure from loved ones or friends. Think you might be suffering from low self-value?

Do you feel guilty about your life choices or about something that happened in the past? As humans we don't walk on water.  We are bound to do things we feel guilty about. Yet guilt is not really a useful emotion... It's not like excitement, motivation or joy. Guilt not only does not feel good, it often makes us do things we later judge ourselves for. Eating that extra piece of pizza, having that extra beer or wine, watching TV instead of cleaning up the house, not calling a friend you think you've hurt… Even if you don't think about it all the time, if you did something you still judge yourself very heavily for, that will influence your sense of self confidence and self worth. In this episode I share with you the basics. Where guilt comes from, why are you feeling it in the first place... and what to do to move through it. Need help figuring out how to move past your feelings of guilt? I can help you.  You can schedule a complimentary consultation with me on my site.Here is the link: https://lifecoachforimmigrants.com/SIGN UP FOR FREE COURSE ON HOW TO FEEL GOOD HANGING OUT WITH AMERICANS WHEN YOU ARE THE ONLY IMMIGRANT IN THE GROUP: https://shorturl.at/chyM2Need my help?

Let's talk about the toughest part of your life journey. If you are a first generation immigrant you had to make it work in the country you might have been completely unfamiliar with. Who did you have to become to make it happen?Who was that person that kept on showing up everyday, scared, unsure of how they will handle their day? What was she or he thinking? Was it:Oh my god I don't know what I am doing, but I will figure it out.That person  was scared and determined at the same time to make things work no matter what. You might be still in that mode today or you might have relaxed and fallen into a more comfortable routine. I want to invite you to honor your hero and to call her or him back. You need that strength and courage if you want to keep on improving and changing your life for the better. The inner hero is so helpful where it comes to creating that dream life you have moved here for. Here are the questions I have asked you in this episode:What were the toughest situations you have faced as an immigrant?What were the feelings that  you most often felt in the toughest moments, the toughest times?What did you do to survive each situation?What were the qualities you had to find within yourself to survive it? If you could go back in time and say a few words to yourself back then, when it was so difficult, what would it be?

Why did you move? Why are you still living here?Do you love your reasons why you live where you live now? Is it clear in your mind or are you a bit confused? This is worth figuring out. I paid a heavy price for not knowing and you might be paying a high price too. How to tell? Are you confused? Are you conflicted within? Or do you have a very clear answer but it does not align with what your reality shows today… You know you should be living somewhere else. Not where you are at...In this episode I tell you about some really tough moments in my life as an immigrant. I went through an identity crisis. It lasted for years. I was deeply unhappy, and I didn't know why.  For years I would not even admit it to myself, because I felt so guilty and confused about it all. I should've been happy. My life was looking great on the outside. Our marriage was good, so why was I so unhappy. This pressure to hide it from myself and others only made it worse. Ever done this? Can you relate?
