How to Transform Adversity in Later Life into a New Career – Ep 32 – Emma Brezan
In this episode, Ildikó chats with Emma Brezan, who spent many years as an NHS practitioner before finding herself, at aged 50, on her deathbed, let down by the very system she served. Emma worked out how to heal herself and learned property investment from Progressive which turned her into the HMO Queen.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
1. Use All of Your Talents: Emma set up 2 new successful businesses. The
FREEDOM™ Method - a coaching framework created out of her recovery that is now a course, a retreat concept, and a series of soon to be published books and as the HMO Queen she also coaches people through property investment.
2. Identify Your Purpose: Investing in property gave Emma structure and helped her survive. But writing and creating the FREEDOM™ Method is what has given her meaning and purpose.
3. Journaling Works : Emma was fiercely against journalling — until she tried it as part of her healing. What started as reluctant scribbles turned into her first book, Fears, Failings & Fulfilment.
4. Turn Pain Into Strength: Address any underlying trauma. When you do, your emotional and much of your physical pain dissipates. Shifting your mindset enables you to truly heal and turn those traumas into a source of strength.
5. Trust Your Intuition: Trust your gut, particularly when navigating challenges.
BEST MOMENTS
Emma: “I was in so much pain; I had gone from working 18-hour days to sleeping for 18 hours.”
Emma: “When the thing chooses you, its obviously the right thing. HMOs found me.”
Emma: I’m starting to teach people how I did it. Then I'm starting actually healing myself physically, and I started thinking about healing myself emotionally, and then when the freedom method stuff started happening.”
Emma: If you live with compassion towards yourself and towards others, there's a better meaning to your life."
Emma: "Freedom stands for finally, reclaiming every element of decision making and outcome and meaning in your life."
