Episode 158: Leaving a Corporate Job to Follow the Beauty

On the podcast today, I talk to one of my former coaching clients, Emily Swarts, about her courageous journey from leaving her comfortable corporate job to starting her own business. Emily shares how paying attention to the expression of masculine and feminine energy helped her understand where she wanted more balance in her life. Emily had to learn how to navigate the fears, build inner trust and most importantly, give herself permission to follow her passions. Emily also inspires us to get in touch with plants (no matter where we are) and feel their balancing beauty. Take a listen to the whole episode and join us on Instagram to continue the conversation @OneWade and @Fleurvoyant
