Imagine your're in corporate and you are told that your position is not "redundant" or in other words there has been a restructure and your position is gone. Now imagine if this happened to you 3 times! You might start looking for more security by starting your own business which is exactly what Tracey Howes did.

In this Tell Your Story (TYS) episode you will hear how Tracey left her 9-5 to start her journey as a small business owner. Tracey has had a variety of businesses from restaurant consulting to social media agency. Through a series of twist and turns (and some help from the Universe) Tracey now is coaching people and fulfilling her passion by teaching people how to do functional breathing (aka breath correctly for optimal health and wellness)... a path she discovered from her free diving activities.

A world that works for 7.7 billion people, where each and every person gets what they need. Could you imagine that? A world that works for each and every person, with no one left behind and no one left out? When you hear that idea of everyone is winning in this game called life do you think "wow… that would be amazing?" Or do you think "that could never happen?" This episode dives into scarcity conversations and how a scarcity mindset leads us to take certain behaviors which, in the short term, help manage scarcity but in the long term, only make matters worse. This episode also explores the framework of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and how to build a life that unlocks your fullest potential.

One of the best ways to achieve what you want is if you have a powerful WHY, a strong reason to overcome any hurdle, and reason why you have to make things happen. What if you had a really successful career as a psychotherapist and hypnotherapist but you kept feeling this consistent pull into sharing your more magical gifts like shamanic healing and clearing people's energy fields? And what if a large reason why you were going to finally leave your 9-5 was because you lived in Australia but the love of your life lived in Canada and having your own business was the way to have it all work out?
