My Unlikely Journey from Tax Lawyer to Artist and Coach | UA01

My Unlikely Journey from Tax Lawyer to Artist and Coach | UA01

In this inaugural episode, I share my own unlikely journey from an international tax lawyer to artist and coach.

Why unlikely? Because I’d given up on art when I was 11. Because I’d labelled myself as “uncreative” for decades. Because my tax law practice was thriving, and it seemed so odd to leave my high-profile job to do something I had no evidence to believe I’d be good at. Because until 4 years ago, I had no idea that something like life coaching existed or that I’d be so taken with it. I start by sharing my journey because this podcast is about possibility. What happened to me seemed so impossible. I hope my story will open your mind and instill in you a curiosity about the amazing and beautiful things that are more possible for you than you’ve been believing.

My mission in this podcast is to help you find the freedom to become who you want.

In every episode I arm you with one useful idea or strategy you can use immediately to start taking your life in a beautiful, new direction.

MY PODCAST LAUNCH CONTEST – FIRST 4 WEEKS ONLY!

To celebrate the first 4 weeks of my podcast launch, I’ve created a super fun contest. To enter the contest, you’ll need to subscribe to the podcast and leave me a review, and then post your photo on Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn and tag me (https://www.instagram.com/gracedcanvascoaching/, https://www.facebook.com/heatherirenekerr, https://www.linkedin.com/in/heatherkerr/) or send me an email to heather@gracedcanvas.com with a copy of your photo.

When I see your photo, I’ll add your name to a hat. I’ll be doing a weekly draw for a free one-hour dream analysis session with me. This session is something outside my normal coaching program, so it’s a rare opportunity. It’s a fun and useful way to access deeper truths about what you really want and the wisdom you need to know right now. If you’re not the kind of person who remembers your dreams, no problem. I have another fun way I apply the dream methodology to your waking thoughts. I guarantee you’ll be surprised at what you learn about yourself.

ABOUT ME:

I’m a former international tax lawyer and senior partner with Ernst & Young. I left the law in 2014 to learn how to paint. After a couple years painting and selling my work, I became passionate about helping other people who feel stuck in their careers and want to feel more personally fulfilled, invigorated and soul connected. I now spend my time painting, coaching and creating live events at the George Russell Academy of Creative Expansion in beautiful Prince Edward County, Ontario, Canada.
