My name is Luciene (loo-see-in) but lot’s of people call me ‘Lu’ and I answer to anything. 😉 I am the oldest of six kids, I have four wonderful sisters and one brother who fixes everything. I am a member of the church if Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. My dad left the church when I was 17 and later my parents divorced. My mom was pregnant with my baby sister at the time and I got to be there for my mom through my sister’s birth. I have been blessed with an amazing mother who I was able to support, love and help.
A few years later I met my husband at SUU. My car broke down and to make a long story short; he fixed my car and a several months later we were engaged. I have been very blessed with a wonderful husband and five amazing kids. Morgan-22(Spouse James Lewis-23) Makenna-19 (Spouse Tyler Chappell-22) Brock-19 (Serving LDS Mission in Chile) Brace-13 and Boden-11. I have been married for almost 25 years.
I help manage the General Store at Ruby’s Inn in Bryce Canyon Utah. I have lots of wonderful employees I get to interact with and learn from. I have been managing 60+ employees for over 20 years now and I love everything that comes with that. I also am a part owner in a Subway about a mile from my home. I have had lots of experience working with many different people, teens to retired, and people from all over the world. I was a theater/dance major in college, and now I hunt, watch my kids play sports and help manage businesses. You never know what life will bring. But we get to decide how we want to show up and how we want to feel about our lives.
I have always resisted negative emotions, especially sadness, overwhelm, and hopeless. I fought with my husband, lots. I was (still am) very defensive. I was frustrated with; my kids, my spouse my life and my depression was getting heavier and heavier. I reached a point a few years ago when I knew something had to change. I was tired of crying, tired of not wanting to be here in my life. I starting looking for options to help my feel better. After several things I found life coaching, I found Jody Moore. I began listening to her podcast and then joined her program. I learned tools, tools that actually helped me to accept myself and to process my emotions. I learned how to really accept myself my strengths and my weaknesses. I learned to allow my emotions instead of resisting them. I learned all this and so much more. I saw and have experienced a real difference in my life. I felt HOPE. And I want to help others feel hope too.
So I went back to school at 40 years old, lol, with two part time jobs and five kids. I know, crazy. And I love life coaching even more now. This work is for real. It has changed my life in so many ways. These tools are amazing. It doesn’t have to be this hard, there is hope. I can’t wait to meet you, to help you have hope. Let’s talk, let me teach you these tools, let’s work and learn and make our lives better. Let’s find hope together!
