"It's not an immediate result. It's a slow coming home to self that happens over time."

 

There are some conversations I've recorded for the podcast so far that are just pure joy and sugar.

This is one of them.

My dear friend Alison Burger has been a role model to me for years of what it looks like to own my worth, my beauty, and a career I love.

She is a multi-talented wellness maven whose professional experience ranges from accounting to modeling to fitness to event planning to mediation and other wellness practices -- and that's just scratching the surface.

But what I really love about Alison is that she is committed to loving herself and her life despite what anyone else may assume about what that requires.

You see, Alison has not only experienced amazing professional and personal success, she has also experienced chronic pain and injury, multiple business opportunities not panning out, relationships ending, and much more.

That's why I value her perspective when it comes to how she celebrates her beauty and worth on a daily basis. She is a true queen of following her north star no matter the ups and downs of where the journey takes her.

I know we'll record multiple episodes together (we already decided the topic of the next one), so get excited to be introduced to someone I am sure you'll love as much as I do.
