We were lucky to catch up with Veronica Barragan recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Veronica , thanks for joining us today. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.
I traveled throughout the world studying different healing modalities and spiritual traditions searching for my own personal body, mind, and Spirit healing, an addiction to alcohol, high levels of anxiety, and existential depression perpetrated by my inner child programming and a turbulent life were it all looked successful from the outside. On my personal quest for healing, I traveled to the Amazon Jungle in Peru to work with Plant Medicines for 17 days which was a big tipping point in my healing journey where I experienced a deeper connection with my ancestors, lineage, and the healing journey.
But it wasn’t until Kundalini Yoga came into my life after the Shamanic experience, that I was able to bring the healing journey to full circle and heal from an addiction to alcohol, integrate, process, and digest all that had transpired in the Amazon Jungle and in my life.
I then walked away from a successful business of 15 years as A Real Estate Broker and Business Coach to hundreds of Entrepreneurs, to follow my Dharmic Path of helping other women heal holistically body, mind, and Spirit with the SWC Method I created through my own healing so that they can break ancestral karmic cycles, otherwise knows and intergenerational trauma, in their lineage.
Veronica , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I got into holistic wellness through my own personal healing journey. Through that journey I created the SWC Method of kundalini yoga therapy + Spiritual Psychotherapy which helps women holistically heal body, mind, & Spirit so they can break ancestral karmic cycles in their lineage. One of the key factors of my SWC Method is that it’s not just theory but a proven process that gets to the root cause of our mental, physical, and spiritual challenges our DNA.
What I am most proud of are the results my clients are getting in healing their body, mind, and Spirit .
What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?
One big lesson I had to unlearn is that no amount of action to make your dreams a reality will matter if your mental, physical, and Spiritual health are not in alignment. I have been an entrepreneur for 17 years and have opened 4 businesses in those years selling one to an investor.
My businesses always hit a plateau because of how out of balance my nervous system was from stress, alcohol use, and trauma .
When I learned to work on and prioritize my mental and spiritual well being, the physical followed.
As business owners, our inability to have resources to help us process stress will always be our biggest hindrance to scaling and true success.
Stress is not bad, it just means your services are amazing.
What is bad is not knowing how to process it or staying in long periods of stress for a long time.
Now that I prioritize my well being, my actions is aligned.
I don’t hustle because I have clarity and I can stay creative birthing projects and ideas to support my business with ease and flow. And with that clarity and energy I am able to get organized and build systems to scale my business and not have to jeopardize my health, family, or personal life.
Have you ever had to pivot?
I was a successful Real Estate broker for 15 years in the valley. I coached and mentored hundreds of entrepreneurs, served in local, state, and National leadership positions and was pretty much at the top of my game in the industry.
When I found the science of Kundalini Yoga Meditation and I was able to self-heal from a lot of emotional distress, it was very easy for me to walk away from that industry completely to start my coaching Company Satori Wellness and Spirituality and create my virtual Group Coaching Program and Women’s Community the Sovereign Woman Academy to teach women how to do the same.
Although many people thought I was crazy, the last 2.5 years have been incredible and not once have I ever looked back. I look forward to further growing my company and helping more women achieve optimum mental, physical, and Spiritual health.
