Heal Your Past, Own Your Gifts and Speak Your Truth with Amelia Travis

In this episode of The Soul Collective, I connect with Amelia Travis who is a writer, Tedex speaker and multi-six figure business coach. Through humor and brutally honest candor, Amelia inspires women to heal their pasts, own their own gifts and speak their truth in order to activate their highest potential.  Amelia Travis is an E-RYT 500, writer, speaker, and business coach who has impacted thousands of lives through yoga education programs, stand up paddle and surf experiences, and women's empowerment retreats.  Amelia's journey to an empowered life wasn't easy. Body dysmorphia, people pleasing and perfectionist tendencies led to drug addiction, disordered eating, abusive relationships and a "sugar baby" lifestyle.  In 2009, a spiritual awakening led Amelia to the realization that she was the only one standing in the way of becoming the woman she wanted to be. She decided to embrace messy, imperfect, unapologetic feeling, and has since built and scaled a multi-six figure business, certified over 1000 yoga teachers in stand up paddle board yoga and coached hundreds of women to personal and professional success through her company, Stoked Yogi. As a teacher and coach, her commitment to education and loving people on purpose is unparalleled. In 2019, Amelia had the privilege of speaking for TEDx on the subject of mindset shift, and her writing has been published in Yoga Journal, Huffington Post, and the Inertia.  In 2012, after breaking her back in a surfing accident, Amelia realized that life is too short to do anything but what you love, and that dreams exist for a reason. Her mission is to love people and help them activate their highest potential. She lives by her personal mantra: Set your intention, breathe it to life.   RESOURCES: Show Host: @EmilyGhoshHarris Learn more: stokedyogi.com Instagram: @stoked_yogi Listen: Rise to Thrive Podcast Emily Ghosh Harris Website Emily's Instagram  Soul Collective Instagram
