LIVE BOLDLY with Sara

Anna Rodin is an author, a yoga teacher, and a college student. At just 21 years old, she has taken a nontraditional approach to life between going abroad at 18 to Italy, taking a semester off later on to get her yoga teacher certification, transferring schools, and now writing and publishing a book.

Mental health has played an enormous role in her life and self love journey. Uncovering old wounds and facing old traumas, mostly from childhood, has been an extremely painful but important experience that she believes everyone would benefit from, especially in their twenties.

She speaks on mental health and wellness for people in their twenties, as well as wellness and health in general in terms of the role it plays in each of our individual lives.

There’s something beautiful about climbing a mountain alone in the dark. Stars shining bright, only to reach the summit at sunrise. 

You look over the ridge at 10,064 ft, watching the world wake. The sky turns color, from black, to shades of orange, and finally blue. You are the only human on top.

“Were you afraid?”

“Yes. For the first 15 minutes.”

But then you realize that your fear is in your head. You’ve climbed this mountain time and time again.

You see, it's still the same mountain, just under a different sky.

You tell yourself, “I wasn’t afraid climbing in daylight. So why be afraid in the dark? Trust yourself.”

This mountain taught me to stop wrapping experiences in fear and worry, and instead, to wrap them in courage and bravery.

Do hard things.

Because every hard thing will remind you how capable that you are of doing every other hard thing standing in your way. 

Every single day ask yourself, “What is important to me?” Define those things that are important to you and bring more of that into your life, while you are also letting go of the things that don't really mean a hill of beans. 

To live is to make those hard choices and decisions and actions moving forth that perhaps others wouldn't make. But it really doesn't matter because you're living this life for you and according to who you are.  

Let’s go!

As the New Year fast approaches and we are surrounded with talk of goal setting, I want also to explore intention setting and how we are planning to show up for ourselves in 2023. For me personally, 2022 was a year of loss and growth. 

My heart is heavy with the passing of my mom, and I am shifting and growing in exciting ways in my business. As you reflect on your own year, I invite you to set intentions for 2023.

How do you want to show up in this world? For yourself? For others? 

What impact feels essential for you to make? How are you stepping into your calling?

In this episode, I share four steps to setting intentions so you can start off your year in a really good, healthy way for yourself in alignment with your mind, body, heart, spirit, soul and emotions.
