Hey there, |
If IÂ haven't met you yet, I'm Landy Peek, and I'm here to guide you on a journey to let go of daily stresses, conquer self-doubt, and embrace a life brimming with contentment and happiness.
As an occupational therapist, somatic experiencing therapist, and coach, I bring a wealth of experience to the table. I help humans like you through personalized sessions, coaching on stress management and self-doubt, and practical tips for finding joy in everyday life. But let's not forget, I'm also a mom of two, whose husband travels frequently for work. Oh, and did I mention we have our own little urban farm? Our family includes chickens, dogs, a cat, and a parakeet.
Like you, I've been caught in the whirlwind of a busy life and the relentless pressure to succeed. Are you a Type A personality? Do you live by lists? I did too! For years, I believed that reaching my goals would bring me happiness. I was constantly checking off boxes but found myself not truly loving life. I was getting fleeting moments of happiness but not experiencing daily joy and contentment. The activities that truly fulfilled me were often the ones I couldn't find time for.
Somewhere along the path to success, I lost sight of myself. I was so focused on achieving the next big thing that I never paused to ask what I truly liked or wanted. My goals no longer resonated with who I had become.
Does this sound familiar? Have you ever felt stressed, unfulfilled, despite leading a busy and seemingly successful life? You're not alone. You might be yearning for a life where stress doesn’t dominate your existence, and you’re not constantly chasing fleeting moments of happiness. Those quick fixes—wine, chocolate, shopping, sex—might lift your spirits momentarily but leave you longing for something deeper.
At the end of 2023, I thought I had it all. I lived in my dream town, surrounded by wonderful neighbors and friends. I worked four days a week, ran a six-figure business, engaged in public speaking, volunteered, and had the flexibility to drop off and pick up my kids from school. It seemed perfect on paper.
But in early 2024, a series of stressors hit me hard. I decided to step back from my business temporarily to give myself the emotional space to support my family and myself. This self-care break made me realize something profound—I had achieved all my goals but wasn't truly content.
Externally, I was thriving. I had bursts of happiness, but nothing truly satisfying. Simple joys like reading in a hammock, dipping my feet in a river, baking, listening to the rain, or taking leisurely walks had vanished from my life. Instead, I was living on the adrenaline of success and self-care activities like retail therapy or Netflix binges with a glass of wine. They felt good but weren't fulfilling. Have you ever felt that way?
So many of us feel unsatisfied with aspects of our lives but never make changes. One night, as I stared at the drab tan paint covering my walls, I remembered how much joy I used to find in brightening up our homes. Yet, I'd done nothing to change the dullness in our current house for 18 months. So, I spent two more weeks painting, and it felt rejuvenating.
As I gave myself space, I realized I didn't want to return to my old work routine. Ironically, I had designed it myself, but it no longer fueled my passion. I delved into research on happiness and documented what truly made me happy throughout my day.
This journey back to my roots helped me rediscover what I love and who I am. I'm not here just to share my story but to help you ask yourself the right questions, get curious, and reframe your life. By looking through a different lens, I found a way to make sense of my life and feel more in control, fulfilled, and content. While I had the luxury of stepping back from work, I know not everyone does. My research and insights can help you cut through the clutter, offering practical steps to find joy without spending months buried in self-help books.
But here's the good news—change is possible. Together, we can navigate this journey, prioritizing what truly matters and finding joy in every day. Let's embark on this path to a more fulfilling, balanced, and joyful life, one step at a time.
