Wow, what an inspiring and enlightening episode this week on Empower, Uplift & Transform with Misty. I’m excited to share episode 3, Finding Joy in Life Through Community & Power of Goals with my beautiful guest Chrisoula Van Oirschot.

Chrisoula started her career as a registered massage therapist in 1999. After 11 years in health care, she switched paths and became an elementary school educator.

In 2019, Chrisoula created her business By Meraki (a Greek word meaning to do something with soul, creativity or love; to put something of yourself into your work). By Meraki brings together her love of wellness creativity and education into one. She's passionate about personal growth and wellness and highly motivated to help others reach their full potential.

Chrisoula provides women with opportunities to improve their wellness journey through courses, workshops and retreats. She is an accountability and wellness coach and the creator of beautiful retreats in Southwestern Ontario.

Chrisoula talks to us about her path to a freer mindset and releasing one of judgment to find expansiveness. She details a personal experience when she witnessed a behaviour she no longer wanted to participate in she made a shift and found a much more positive mindset.

Chrisoula also shares what it was like moving from being a mom with small children to what it was like being a mom when the kids were no longer so dependent. She shares how the shift became looking inside herself to who she was and what she wanted.

As an accountability and wellness coach, Chrisoula shares tips and tools on goal setting and how to be successful in the goals you want in life. She also talks about the beautiful, nourishing retreats she creates in Southwestern Ontario.

This week is a great one on Empower, Uplift & Transform with Misty!  I’m excited to share Episode 2 with you The Magic of Mindfulness with special guest: Mahara Wayman.

Mahara Wayman is the Chief Gratitude Officer and Founder of Mindfulness with Mahara.  She is an author, motivational speaker and empowerment coach passionate about helping women find clarity on their purpose and yearnings so they can realign their actions with their goals, dreams and values. Mahara helps them step into joy and peace, so they flourish in their new season through focused conversations, robust self-reflection, and an online group coaching program.

Mahara shares she is proof that it’s possible to find happiness after a significant transition. She shares how she left her corporate career, and knows firsthand how confusing it is when the role identified with for years is no longer there.

After years in her chosen profession, supporting others in transforming their lives, she was suddenly in her new season. She realized then she was missing something and decided to jump-start her new life outside of the identity she had connected with for so long. Mahara was determined to create her dream life, one that spoke to her and filled her cup. She took control of her life and rewrote her story from the inside out.  She shares how she used her years of experience, knowledge and powerful techniques to help women find happiness in their retirement and move from the story they have been stuck in to live the story they love.

Mahara joined me this week and shared glimpse into her life's work and how she supports women and helps them see how beautiful they are exactly. Mahara also shares the magic of mindfulness and what that means to her. She shares that mindfulness is about acceptance that it's ok to be still. Mahara explains how stillness is this opportunity to tune and an explore all of our senses. Mahara explores with us that if we’re pretending who we are then our actions are based on pretending and we continue to draw ourselves further and further away from our true selves.   Her wisdom goes even deeper when she talks about the monkey brain and how it keeps playing these recurring messages and how mindfulness is a huge ingredient is slowing it down.

It’s here my friend, episode #1 of Empower, Uplift & Transform with Misty Podcast! 

I'm beyond excited and let’s face it also a little terrified….the reality is if I’m not a little bit scared I question if it is worth doing. Those scary tingles in my stomach, my racing mind all adds to up to nervous excitement of sharing my gifts with the world. 

As Gabby Bernstein said in a workshop I attended: It is my responsibility to share my great work with the world! 

And here I am stepping into my power and sharing my work with the world. Work that is so worth doing and sharing!! 

I thought long and hard what is the first episode to be and I checked out all my favourite podcasts and then I got quiet and realized this is my show and my creation so what feels aligned with me. The answer that arose was connecting with the listeners, that’s you, and sharing my story.

In this episode I share where I’ve come from, how I got here and some of the most pivotal experiences I’ve had in my life so far. The most important thing I share is my WHY, the reason I’m doing this, my intention, my passion and my dharma. 

I can't wait for us to get to know each other, build community and create sacred space for women together in order to empower, uplift and transform each other's lives.
