At the start of a new year, we all tend to put a lot of pressure on ourselves to achieve, get off to a strong start and to smash it! Here, Mindset and Positive Psychology Empowerment Coach shares with BDaily Three Ways to Ignite Your Flame and Passion…

This week, leading business woman, former secondary school teacher, solo mum of one, Louisa Herridge, 43 from Warrington, celebrates her empowerment book featuring 10 brave women becoming a global best-seller knocking Jay Shetty off the top spot. This book has been lovingly created to inspire more of us to find the courage and resilience to rise up, leaving behind the challenges of our history, these honest accounts reveal the depths of despair and provide significant keys and tips to moving on and being able to powerfully rise from the ashes.

‘From The Ashes, She Is Ignited’ is the second volume of powerful, inspiring and empowering stories from women who have risen from the ashes of trauma, adversity and pain to live a life ignited with positivity, passion and confidence.

The ten women in this book all show strength and with that comes unwavering grit. Chapters cover sensitive topics including; childhood trauma, mental illness, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, eating disorder, divorce, miscarriage, sexual abuse… Their stories will take you from the darkness, heartbreak, and despair of life through the power, strength and resilience to becoming ignited. The book has a collaborative message of hope, gratitude and the joy that can be found in even the darkest of journeys.

Louisa Herridge said: “The ten women in this book all have one thing in common. Strength and with that comes unwavering grit. Their stories will take you from the darkness, heartbreak, and despair of life through the power, strength and resilience to becoming ignited.”

Louisa continues; “I often think of the years of our lives as symbolised by a tree. Once an old tree has been chopped, its truck reveals circles, each representing a year of life. Once the tree is felled, we cannot change it. Just like us. We can’t go back and rewrite the past, but what we can do is stop the tree from being felled. We don’t need to see the chopped-down tree with forty-three rings of past to know it has endured many cold winters, harsh storms and parched summers. We can still share its story and celebrate its strength and endurance as it stands tall and thriving. Growing taller and stronger to withhold the storm of the next forty-three years! The inner rings are still there; we don’t need to see them to know those years have weathered the tree. We grow and by knowing who we are and what has happened to us we can turn that pain and adversity into strength and power.”

Louisa’s Three Ways to Ignite Your Flame and Passion, include:

1. Maintain a Growth Mindset - focus on the journey of experiencing, giving things a go, failing and learning until you succeed. Sometimes this is unintentional when going through trauma but people with resilience view life events as opportunities to grow. Failures are only setbacks and opportunities for improvement and learning. People with a growth mindset take charge of their success and the process of attaining it and maintaining it and as such show great resilience.

2. Be Courageous - You will see what I mean in the chapters of this book. Each of these women have shown great courage and in doing so they have found the positivity and ability to live a fully ignited life. Courage is the ability to do something that frightens you and show strength in the face of pain or grief.

3. Be Resilient - Resilience is the all-round mental, emotional, and spiritual capacity to recover and overcome from difficulties. Courage and resilience together is what makes us rise from any adversity. They show strength of character and a need for grit but we all have the potential to tap into when needed.
