The People Who Arrive at the Right Time | Marie Quigley

Marie Quigley (00:00) Numerous gifts have come my way in the form of human beings to be kind of maybe soul guides, as John O'Donoghue calls them, my Anum Karas in my life. That lady, she was a little lady from Donegal. She had this beautiful northern Irish accent. And that's where my family kind of originate from the north of Ireland. So it felt like home in many ways. She was certainly someone that turned up out of the blue and gifted me the thought of John O'Donoghue's book. Funnily enough, when I was in Dubai and I'd been thinking about this thing called coaching, but kept putting it aside because I've got kids, I've got to run a family, I'm moving countries. There's so much for me to manage in that. I kept putting it aside and thinking, it'll come, it'll come. And I happened to be at a party in Dubai and in walked this magnificent woman and she was glowing. Best way of describing it. She took up space in the room from her through her energy and I was so attracted to her energy. I didn't know her, but I moved towards her and got into conversation with her. And she'd just come off a coach training program. And she was telling me all about it and her energy. She was uplifted. And it was really compelling to be around her. And I shared how, you know, that's actually the route I would love to go. Well, a few weeks later, She came and she said, the coach training school that she trained with had gifted her a weekend to give to somebody that wanted to experience their training. And she said, the person I want to give it to you is you. And she gave me that first weekend. That was incredible. And she's definitely acknowledged in my book. The second gift that came along was as I was starting coach training, the world was crashing. People were losing jobs. My husband had lost his job. We were in a lot of financial struggle. We've made I've made decisions. I'm kind of in charge of the finances of the house. And I've made some poor decisions that were taken advantage of by a friend of ours, unfortunately. So I couldn't afford to continue with the coach training because it was just out of our way out of our line. But I had been practicing my coaching with a couple separately individually, but they were they were a married couple and they were having wonderful experiences with the work that we were doing together. And they knew that I'd like to continue. And it was Christmas time. and they came and knocked on my door unexpectedly. I answered the door and said, we don't have a session and we don't have sessions together. And they walked in and they'd paid for the next stage of my coaching journey. And that was like, you know, as somebody who doesn't receive those type of gifts easily, it was, can't take this. And they said, well, we knew that. So that's why we've already paid for it. Luckily, I was able to repay them back when they had very premature babies. A few years later, I was able to give them back the investment they put in me for their little for their little girls. So those are another three angels that came into my life, particularly in terms of working in coaching that have been magnificent on my journey.
