What Women Tell Me

Shelley Johnson helps women understand and make sense of their deepest wounds and their deepest desires.

Women trust me. They tell me a lot of things. They share their deepest darkest secrets with me and I hold them all, I keep them all. Many women, many secrets. From the woman whose husband is in love with another woman, to the woman in love with another woman's husband, they share their heart's deepest wounds and deepest desires. I help them make sense of it all with peace and understanding.

So I know a lot of things. Things about the truth of a woman's heart, mind and soul that are rarely shared publicly. So I'm going to share who a woman really is, what's really in her heart, and what she really wants.

A woman is a partner, a daughter, a mother, and a sister, whether in reality or not, she possesses these identities;  and these roles play a part in defining her value to herself and what she perceives as her value to society. If she longs for a partnership or has been hurt by a partnership, she's hiding deep pain that she doesn't want the world to know about. The childless woman, either by choice or not, has spent many years grappling with this and accepting the reality of this void. The mother with children, here or gone, will know the depths of a broken heart that being a mother will bring. The woman with a broken relationship with a parent or a sibling carries deep wounds that, unless healed, will cause her ongoing fear, anger and distrust. Healing is the key and this is what I help her do. A woman is a little girl who had lots of dreams and ideas of how life was supposed to turn out, and well, it didn't turn out the way she hoped. She's been hurt, used, abused, and mistreated. This is who a woman really is.

I know what's in a woman's heart. LOVE. Underneath all the pain and judgment she has absorbed, there is LOVE. Pure LOVE. LOVE does four things. LOVE cares, comforts, provides and protects. Once she sees, believes and FEELS this LOVE inside of her, she can start to heal and start to harness the power to do and be everything she wants. This is what I help her do. I focus on one thing and one thing only - getting her to experience the LOVE already inside her heart. It's beautiful really. A woman's heart. Truly beautiful.

Which is what she really wants...TO BE BEAUTIFUL. This is the most simple, purest truth among ALL women I've had the privilege to coach... no matter her identity, age, weight, race, status, or sexual orientation. The truth is, even if she tries to act like she doesn't care about being beautiful, it's simply not true... down deep she LONGS to feel and be beautiful. EVERY. WOMAN. It is her heart's deepest longing, to look in the mirror, to love what she sees, and feel beautiful. To have her dignity restored and stand with dignity. Like a princess. With dignity. This is what every woman wants. She needs her dignity restored. Which is why I wrote about my secret in My Secret Escape: Restore Your Dignity, Transform Your Body. It's not just about weight loss; it's about EVERY woman feeling beautiful. Why? It's simple. It's powerful. It's what she really wants.
