July 2020 marks my one year anniversary of being a full-time self-funded yogipreneur. Damn, what a journey. In this last year, I have been living what I call my zest life!
To be honest, it doesn't feel like 12 months ago. It feels like five freakin years ago since I quit my corporate job. The stress I experienced while addicted to the hustle of three years in the fashion industry was in one word, toxic. Don't get me wrong, working in fashion was/is my dream come true. Anyone in my first career knows me as a smiley, eager helper that would do anything for more responsibility including a 12 person meeting coffee run or a return downtown in the middle of a downpour in wedges. But no one should experience burnout this early in her career. It was this burnout that led me to my mat every morning and got me saying YES to yoga class at 6am.
The thing I said for months that I would never do because "I wasn't ready yet" I finally did. Equally full of fear and faith, I quit. I swapped 40 hours+ for freedom. Yes, this was so yogi "free spirit" and beyond opposite Type A of me, but it was the best decision of my life.
And you bet I am here to inspire YOU to get to this feel good, happy place too - whatever your dream, wherever you are at.
I love to learn and I also love to share what I learn. My hope is that every nugget of wisdom inspires at least one person to make one small change in his or her life.
My mission is to guide you to living your zest life and to inspire you to feel good in your own body with a healthy mind and happy heart. You are not alone on this journey to your zest life. I am here, and this community is here, to be your biggest support system on the way back home to the zest YOU.
I am so grateful to be doing what I love - what they say is true, it doesn't feel like work when it's pure passion - and to be sharing knowledge that I wish I had when I was experiencing work-life burnout. I have created simple tools so you don't have to live in constant fight-or-flight, and can start living the way you say you wish your life could be.
You can expect to see a lot of self-care and a lot of savasana. And a lot of lemons…
Every month for the past year, I have brought my IG community fresh squeezed news (new AMyoga and AMhealth updates). As I continue to grow, I get beyond excited for more updates. My intention with The Fresh Squeezed Newsletter is to keep in touch and let you in on the latest and juiciest happenings.
I am dreaming up an app, a unique subscription where you can access all my classes, meditations and health coaching courses, a book (eek!) and more...all the things. There is so much good in store so stay tuned!
Today's big news is that I am launching a place where you can purchase my digital tools! I have worked so hard and put so much love into these tools that I cannot believe the first one is here and now available for purchase today. It's an easy peasy to use tool I created just for YOU and I want you to be able to take it with you for self-care anytime, anywhere.
