In her free time, she likes to read books, paint, use her hands to create handcrafts or recycle materials to make a piece of art, dance with the music of the 70 and 80 and walk in nature.

Monica has two grown children (a son 23 years old and a daughter 21 years old) and a son 9 years old.

Marie wrote her PhD about mainstream culture’s “stories“ about women and their power. She has been working as a coach since 2013. In her online program EVOLUTION, she teaches high-achieving women the system to grow into the next version of themselves.

In what ways have you been incapacitating yourself? Every day, people make choices that will keep them from realizing their dreams and achieving their goals. They will make excuses, get distracted by other things in their lives, and weeks turn into months, and then into years.

What I want you to ask yourself is this: what is it you would like to achieve until the end of the year? And what do you need to change about yourself in order to achieve it? Get as specific as you can. The only thing between where you are now and where you want to be is you.

In order to become your future self, you will need to develop new habits. But navigating your past, present and future self is not always easy. So much of who we think we are is based on the belief system that was passed on to us. In order to become the next version of yourself, you will need to let go of limiting beliefs and embrace the plasticity in yourself.

There is a rhythm to creating new habits, and it needs receptiveness. Fear will paralyze you and keep you from achieving your goals and becoming the person you need to be to do so.

Guest Bio:

Jessica’s journey started in 2009 with an attempt to nurture a rock-climbing injury. While taking yoga classes, she experienced an endless adventure towards self-awareness aligned with nature’s rhythms. Having suffered and recovered from various sports injuries, Jessica has an understanding of how to offer what the body needs to recuperate.

In the last decade, she has completed workshops certifying for Physical Therapy Aide, Massage Therapy Aide, Certified Nursing Assistant, Yoga Health Coaching, and over 200 hours of yoga teacher training. Coupling her love of habit evolution and body mechanics, she is passionate about coaching others through Ayurvedic principles towards their unique pursuit of an active and balanced lifestyle.

Outside of coaching, Jessica either spends family time in nature with her loving partner and son, creates wildcrafted art, tends to her plants, or dances.

Over the past year, many yoga studios were forced to close their doors due to COVID-19. Being unable to teach in person, forced many yoga teachers to pivot online, unsure of how to create their own space and make a profit.

Having walked the same path herself, a decade ago, Cate knows how pivoting online can be a challenge when you compare yourself to the immensity of yoga teachers teaching online for free. Why would someone pay you for an experience they can have for free with someone else?
