“My ongoing prayer for you as my client will be that God will clearly define for you the path you are to take and that every day and every decision will be in partnership with Him.”  Sandee Strunk

What one thing could you do to take better care of your health, starting today?

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.  (Romans 8:28; KJV)

As our dear friend and Internet specialist, Dr. Randy Peck frequently says, people like to read short stories of success and transformed lives.  Another quip I’ve heard from a successful entrepreneur is “Facts tell, stories sell.”  Not that I’m selling anything here other than hope and encouragement for your daily lives.  This is another story of healing and hope. 

I had heard Sandee’s name mentioned several years ago in conjunction with the coach training organization that Jerry and I are a part of.  I knew she had a successful counseling practice and had recently moved to the DC area.  We first met at a dinner where several other coaches were in attendance.  Sandee was warm and approachable.  However, I could tell that she didn’t feel well.

Sandee recently shared with me that several people had mentioned my name to her along with telling her some of my story.  It was also suggested that she contact me.  Several months after that dinner meeting Sandee did contact me.  I learned that although she had been a successful business owner, Christian counselor, and busy wife and mother, she had also struggled with health challenges for a number of years.

Although Sandee has a solid foundation in nutrition and wellness, she wasn’t able to cross her current hurdle.  Allergy symptoms had reared their head with a vengeance bringing with them severe fatigue, malaise, and “foggy” thinking.  At one point in her quest for regaining her health, she was forced to close her busy and successful counseling  practice.

I was able to come along side Sandee and offer resources, books, websites, and other little tidbits that had helped me to regain my health.  She made some dietary shifts and also began a solid nutritional supplement regimen.  Like me, her recovery took some time.  However, she’s now gone many months without getting a sinus infection, which is a great improvement from before.  She has stamina and energy to be a successful coach and writer.  She has an e-commerce business along with a wellness and nutritional business.  Since she has a passion for writing, she loves coaching others who have a book inside them that needs written.  Gone are the days of dragging herself from one room to the other and not being able to continue with a stream of thought.  She’s also able to exercise and has been able to lose weight and become more fit.  Oh, a 30 pound weight loss I might add!

What a joy and privilege it has been to walk alongside this “success story!”  Sandee has also become a dear friend.  Way to go girl!

Prayer Power
Father, we thank You for Sandee and the many lives she touches each day.  Bless her business in a rich and abundant way.
