Time Travel – The Connection Between Coaching and Genealogy

Over the past few weeks, I have been on a journey of TIME TRAVEL! A few months ago, I felt a calling to delve deeper into my family history. Part of what inspired me was that my self-awareness journey had reached a new turning point. During several coaching sessions with different practitioners over the past years, things had surfaced that were connected to my ancestors. I felt it was time to explore this further so that I could lay down burdens that were not truly mine.

To pursue this, I signed up for a genealogy workshop last October, which I attended just this past weekend. The experience was fantastic—I discovered incredible things, and since then, I have been researching persistently in my free time. In fact, I am now researching not only my own family tree but also that of my partner.

I am deeply grateful to Dóra Törökné Tenk for the immense knowledge, the guidance, the astonishing discoveries, and your comforting words. I even found a photograph of my great-grandfather and an article about him in a historical newspaper! I’m attaching it here for you to see…

You can clearly see my grandfather’s features and those of my middle son, Szabolcs, showing traces of my great-grandfather. When I discovered this, tears came to my eyes. The feeling was indescribable!

I truly believe that uncovering and interpreting our family’s past, as well as the life paths of family members—not only encourages understanding and tolerance—can also support proper self-awareness and the formation of a healthy self-image.
