The Right Person Will Come

I am always in awe when I look back at how I met people, or how certain connections were made, it really blows my mind.  I bought the fine art in this picture when I was working on cruise ships.  I just find it so beautiful, a real, curvy woman.  I bought two other pieces that I found owners for a while ago.  This one has not found the right fit until now, I really didn't want to just give it away, it is so special, but it does not fit my life anymore. 

I drove it cross country with me when I moved from Miami to LA, 12 years later it sits in my closet, after I got married and had kids., it just did not have a place in my home.



Thank God in all of the circumstances I am going to tell you about, the right person for the right situation was at the right place at the right time. 

My amazing Doctor and Doula that I had since my first baby I was referred to them by my husband's sister, and they were the perfect fit for me.  At the end of my pregnancy with Ziona Sofia, I got certified to teach Prenatal Yoga and I found Herbalife, little did I know Herbalife would bring me to where I am today as a Doula, as well as give me energy and the right nutrition education to get through motherhood! LOL

I was teaching Yoga at one of our Herbalife centers and I met an amazing girl who later on became pregnant and joined my Hot Mama Power Walk, to stay healthy and active during her pregnancy.  My Doula was not available for my third baby, she decided to focus on Acupuncture.  My baby came 5 weeks early, the Doula's I had lined up were not available, so I was totally present, noticing that the contractions were not stopping for 2 hours, called my friend to stay with the kids, stayed calm, got to the hospital at 7 centimeters all on my own, amazing birth experience, and after that I realized I was ready to be a Doula.

I resumed my Hot Mama Power Walk when my baby was 6 weeks, and posted it on Meetup.com.  A wonderful woman who is a Doula responded promoting her birth classes to parents, and when we met, I loved her knowledge, her no nonsense, and referred my friend that was pregnant to her for the birth classes.  My friend who was pregnant doing my walks had also asked me if I would consider being her Doula, and I knew the universe was talking to me.  I called my Doula friend who gave the birth classes and signed up for Doula Training in order to be ready for my friend who was in her last trimester.

So here is where the story wraps up, one of the ladies in my Doula training has a notebook, and in it she has a beautiful picture of a woman similar to my painting, so I told her about the painting and showed her the picture and she fell in love, and asked me how much it was, and that it was her birthday, she would have her husband buy it as her gift.  We have our final class tomorrow, and I am bringing it to her.

There are no coincidences,
Just Keep Listening,
The right people are out there for everything,
Grateful,
Coach Yulia
