Just As We Are


Jun 17, 2021

She didn’t want to be a Mom anymore and as she told her friend this very thing, she couldn’t help but wonder what was wrong with her. Emily Adams a single Mom, shares about the pressure she had on her from outside influence and from herself. We talked about that crucial moment that shifted her entire life to the point where she left her corporate job and turned to coaching others. She shares about what self love really is and what that looks like for her and how she used self-forgiveness to turn around the self-judgement she faced every day. 

 

Emily is a coach passionate about helping others step into their own power and become the best version of themselves. Born and raised in the Amish culture she always wondered if there was more to life and could one find true happiness? Knowing she was made for more she made the decision at 17 to leave the culture and everything she had known her whole life.

After leaving the culture she got her GED with hopes to go to college but then became pregnant at the age of 18 and married at 19. A year and half into the abusive marriage she knew she had to get out but felt stuck since she just found out she was pregnant with her second son. Fast forward two years she left the marriage and became a single mom.

New to being a single mom and still having the feeling that she was made for more she made the decision to change her life and she joined a gym and enrolled in college. Four years later she graduated from Purdue with a Bachelor's degree as a single mom working full time. She also lost over 65lbs. and found a passion for powerlifting.

Landing the corporate job she always dreamed of having, she soon realized that she was called to make a even a bigger impact in the world. She made the decision to leave the corporate world. After years of chasing happiness wondering what her calling was she found one of her purposes in life was to inspire other through teaching, coaching, speaking and writing as she inspires others to change their perception and step into their own power and live a purpose filled life.
