What happens when you take a blind leap of faith, move out of your hometown, and your entire world suddenly expands in ways you never knew possible? In this episode, we explore what happens when you leave everything you know behind to expand your reality.
Moving from Detroit to Los Angeles was a leap of faith! I didn't have all the answers. My intuition told me to go...so I went. But once I got to LA, my perspective on life, money, and freedom was completely shattered and rebuilt.
I’m sharing the two mind expanding stories that made me say, "Oh, hell yeah, I'm staying in Los Angeles!" From finding out a woman lived in Bali for five years (which inspired my own move to Costa Rica) to hearing about a girl making $5,000 in just one hour of teaching yoga.
Using the ancient yogic philosophies of Tapas and Aparigraha, we discuss how to let go of limiting beliefs, stop playing small, and give yourself unapologetic permission to expand into your greatest self.
