Today is something a little bit special…today I am sitting down face to face with the gorgeous Kate Seselja who is not only a gorgeous friend of mine – we both live in the same small town, but she is the gorgeous, strong woman behind The Hope Project.

Now, Kate will dive into all things The Hope Project today, but I wanted to read you an extract from the website which really resonated with me 'Everyone knows someone who is struggling with something. The Hope Project is aimed at crisis prevention by skilling and equipping people better everyday, to not just exist or survive but to thrive in life.'

Kate is also an Ambassador of World Kindness Australia and a certified United Nations Advocate for the Sustainable Development Goals targets SDG #3 Good Health and Well Being for all,

HOPE stands for Help Other People Everyday with a focus that no one gets left behind.

I wanted to quickly tell you though how Kate and I met. We both went to the same Gym in, but she went in the mornings and I went in the evenings so we only met at the Christmas party which was literally in a tranquil backyard! It was nearly like a Romanic comedy between us where we saw each other from across the garden and needed to talk. We both SWORE we knew each other from some where but could not figure out where – and we still can't to this date. It is safe to say we have has a uncanny connection since and are both so in line with each others passions and drives in life – so, now that you know all about mine and Kate's romantic story. Let me introduce you to Kate.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• You cannot be truly happy until you are happy with yourself…
• You have to be ok with all the chapters in your life
• Pretending something didn't happen isn't dealing with it
• Be comfortable with the discomfort of being human

TOOLS:

Kate's Awake Program:

AWAKE is a framework of skills and knowledge to help put into perspective the pain and struggles we face as human beings. Being AWAKE helps you let go of the façade of perfection, unlocks the freedom of being ok with being human and creates a path to see clearer how we might uniquely contribute to humanity. Your pain tells a story and it is not to be viewed as a negative or used as a barrier to true connection to self and others.
