It’s been a while since I’ve shared how I got here, and there’s lots of new folks around, so come on in and sit down for a story.
⠀
My story begins somewhere in the middle of the ocean. (Probably before that actually, but this is more dramatic, so stay with me.).
⠀
I was living my best life, performing on cruise ships all over the world. Then I fell in love and moved north to Canada.
⠀
Everything was pretty perfect, but I didn’t realize how hard moving to a new country could be. I began to feel very isolated. I gained quite a lot of weight and became depressed, regardless of my picture perfect life.
⠀
When I started this journey, I didn’t account for was the fact that this was going to change more than my physical appearance. When invited to our weekly Team Calls (on Zoom, before it was cool) I declined for a few weeks, but that pesky craving for connection crept in. I joined a call and was celebrated exactly how I was being celebrated in our support group. I was hooked. Go figure, the retired performer still loves applause.
⠀
Add in a healthy dose of mindset work and support, and I was on my way. I knew I had to do this for others because of the way it made me 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭.
⠀
A few years later, when my life was falling apart, I also decided to become a yoga teacher. It’s definitely no coincidence that in one of the worst years of my life, I chose not one, but two career paths that led me to serve others.
⠀
There have been some dips and some high points with my coaching career, but when the apocalypse hit and I had zero income from ships or yoga, this business remained. It helped me financially when I had no other income coming in. It helped me mentally because when my life was yet again in pieces, I could put down my s**t and focus on others for a while. It helped me stay connected when we were all isolated.
⠀
Today I feel as though I’ve come out the end of a dark, scary waterslide and thrust back out into the sunshine. I’m energized, I feel the aliveness flowing and I’m ready to help you feel the same.
⠀
Nice to meet you.
