Karlyn Percil ^New!

My name is Karlyn Derdrey Percil-Mercieca. I mostly go by Karlyn Percil. Before becoming a CEO that partners with Fortune 500 organizations in North America. Before taking the stage in front of large crowds. Before being a guest on Oprah’s LifeClass, OWN TV and CityLine. Before launching The Success System, SisterTalk Circles, and finding collaborative love… … I was living in a cage of fear that lay on a foundation of self-doubt. As a survivor of child sexual abuse, bullying, depression and anxiety - I lived in a dark place for most of my life. Too ashamed to face my past, I ignored the elephant in the room. I blamed myself for not being able to push through or “get my life together” whatever that meant. The more I ignored it, the more it kept creeping up on me. And, the more I proved the paradox, “What you resist, persists.” Each time I persisted my story, I fell back into a cycle of shame, blame, fear and self-doubt that set off a pattern of behaviours that stopped me from moving forward. When I finally had the confidence to face my Elephant Story, I shared it with one of my virtual mentors, Oprah Winfrey. Sharing my story wasn't easy, I had to ride the wave of emotions - the joys as well as the pain - and work through each one. It wasn’t easy. It definitely was messy. At times, it felt like a battle. I stuck with it and through consistent practice, my inner work unleashed my inner warrior. A Beautiful Warrior that is helping me live out loud and bring my boldest, biggest, wildest dreams to life.
