What this episode covers
Emilie Cortes discovered that outdoor physical challenge provided an unexpected boost in her own self-confidence, and a balance to the stress of her high-powered career in the Bay Area. She ended up leaving her finance job to empower other women by leading them on outdoor adventure trips. In this episode of A Congruent Life, Emilie shares stories about: being very successful in her career, "but not feeding my soul," the unexpected lesson she learned from hiking Half Dome: "nothing at the office is going to seem scary any more." how a physical injury created an extended opportunity for reevaluation of her life, the value of a coach in developing clarity, and in catalyzing change, the challenge - and benefit - of being willing to ask for help, the restorative impact of being disconnected and immersing oneself in the natural world, surprising herself with the power of visualization, even at a subconscious level, and sharing the wisdom she's learned about breaking down boundaries and not holding ourselves back.
