82. Feminine Warrior Spirit Echoed: Finding Truth & Meaning Through Midlife Crisis and Burnout & Becoming ALL of Who You Are with Amy Fournier

Hello and welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite!  Today’s show is a recast of MYSELF featured on the “Integrate Yourself” podcast of my dear friend, holistic personal trainer and nutrition and lifestyle coach, Allison Pelot. Together we explore our personal experiences with the midlife crisis (or Allison’s term: “midlife awakening”) and how that can actually happen at anytime, as well as the tools and lessons I acquired along the journey to my present self.  This podcast holds many important pieces of my story: from learning to connect with my soul with music and indigenous spiritual wisdom to shedding my old beliefs about perfectionism, external validation and expressing my truth. So yup, once again, I get pretty personal with you! We finish with a discussion on the Great Awakening of our current time and what it truly means to speak your truth and live in integrity. So buckle up, get comfortable and join our sister-soul connection for this one special podcast!
