Happy New Year everyone! I am welcoming 2018 with open arms, and an open heart. In my opinion, the best way to kick off the New Year is to reflect on the last 12 months and get a really good idea of what worked and what didn’t. Ask yourself, are you living your best life? Is this what you were meant to be doing in this life? Several years ago, I asked myself those exact same questions and the hard truth of it was NO, I am not living my best life. This all led me down a spiritual road where I discovered the true meaning of manifesting what you want in life. And today, I am going to teach you how I learned to manifest the life I could only dream about, and then explain step by step what I did to create and attract all of the things I desire.

I believe that everyone is manifesting for themselves every single moment, whether they are aware of it or not. So how can you attract all of the things you want in life? Well, it starts with “Play”.

Well it’s about time that I introduce you all to the fabulous Krysia Kurylowicz, otherwise known as my MOM! My mother is an incredible woman who has overcome so many trials and tribulations in her life, and this week we talk about her most profound, life changing experience, which not only effected her, but also sent a chilling, eye opening ricochet through the entire family. In November 2012, my mother was in a near fatal accident involving her horse. She was in intensive care for 10 days and remained in the hospital for over a month. This traumatic experience not only changed her physical body, but it also gave her a new perspective on life, and was the catalyst to living her best life from that day forward.

We discuss her accident, it’s effects, the life lessons and give you a glimpse into our relationship. Sometimes the universe has a funny way of teaching us the lesson. It is up to us to keep an open heart, see the message and do the work to make important changes in our lives.

Today is the day that I open up about another chapter in my life that has shaped the person I have become. The chapter of my Marriage—which ultimately ended in Divorce. Divorce is such a hush hush, BIG no no, don’t talk about it, be ashamed, you’ve failed at life kind of topic in today’s society. Some religions shun you for breaking the vows, and people can be judgmental on this subject. I can understand that. I was one of those people. Until the time came for me to re-evaluate the life choices I had made, only to realize that the path I had chosen was not for me. Being married, feeling trapped by the institution of marriage, and living in peril was NOT who I am. This was NOT my dream. This was not my vision of a happy life. SO why was I continuing down that road?

It is interesting what happens when we hold onto a dream, or a belief, and hope that things will change and get better. It is interesting what happens when we don’t take responsibility for our own actions. This is not an easy thing to do! SO that is why I am telling this story, and sharing the lessons I have learned and implemented into my life today.

BIG Food episode today! My relationship with food has changed so much over the years. I think this is due to the fact that my relationship with myself has improved, and I want to give my body the best possible fuel to nourish me throughout the day. But maybe it is because I have made it my mission to learn about, and then eat REAL FOOD!! A huge teacher and role model for me in the real food department is Ms. Stephanie Kay! She is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist (R.H.N.), an AMAZING food blogger/recipe maker, Cross fit guru, and an overall incredible human being. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen our cooking show a time or 2, as Stephanie is my personal cooking coach! Today, we sit down and chat about about REAL FOOD and what it does for our bodies. This episode is jam packed with little value bombs regarding what real food actually is, diets and what that even means, detoxing from food addictions and SO much more!  For more information on Stephanie Kay and her Real Food Reset, visit her website at www.kaynutrition.com and follow her on instagram @stephaniekaynutrition

To be authentic or not to be… that is the question. But what the heck does that even mean? I am aware that I used to project a different version of myself to people depending on the situation. For example, I would act differently around certain friends, certain family members, and especially co-workers. I would pretend to be something I was not be it more confident, hard working, funny… This podcast is all about how I began to understand and learn about my true sense of “self”, and how this impacted me to connect with and live a more authentic life. I find that the most authentic people in the world have a strong sense of self, stay true to themselves and to their word, and have a strong connection to their inner voice. We all have that spirit, that energy, that love inside of us. So this week, I share how I found that love, and how I am able to confidently be guided by my intuition to live an authentic life that is true to me!

OK Everyone!! Get ready, because this week, I have the pleasure to share with you an AMAZING conversation with my most profound spiritual teacher, Adele Stratton—AKA My Yoda. Adele is the founder of Phoenix Rising Healing center, and what better way to debut Yoda to the program than to dive into the topic of RELATIONSHIPS. Over our lifetime, we develop and experience diverse relationships. From family, to friends, to co-workers, to teachers, many people come in and out of our lives teaching us and shaping the way we see the world. From these relationships we develop our sense of worth. But have you ever stopped, and taken a look at your relationship with YOURSELF? Are you aware of how you treat yourself? What is your personal worth and where did you learn that? And lastly, how does this affect the way you treat others and ultimately how you project yourself.

Today’s podcast shines a light on the dynamics of our relationship with ourselves. We share how to become in line with ourselves, and learn to love self FIRST, so we can enter into relationships with others condition and expectation free.

This episode explains the entire physical, mental and emotional process I went through in my journey through FIT to FAT to FIT. From a high performance athlete working out 35+ hours a week to a sedentary couch potato, I went through a series of struggles, and I explain how I put my life back together and made health and fitness a priority.

BONUS content: I also share a BIG secret to how I’m NOW able to stay disciplined with my current fitness regime. This one thing has changed my life and it is so easy to implement into yours. My goal is to change your perspective on fitness and help you find your FIT!

Do you have a people pleaser in you? And if so, do you need to teach it how to say NO? Well, I certainly did. I feel like in today’s society, we are all learning to please others before ourselves. Making sure that everyone else has everything they need before we can give ourselves time, before we can give ourselves love and before we can give ourselves what we need to be fulfilled in life. While people pleasing is not always a bad thing, I’ve learned that it is when it puts my best interests at risk.

I have definitely come full circle in this department. In this episode, I explain the steps I took to regain my own person power, say no without feeling guilty, or bad, or stressed, and I share how I changed my perspective on the entire concept of selfishness.
