Every once in a while, something happens that really matters. Something that will define at least the next chapter of your journey – perhaps it’s a conversation with a client, a meeting with a visionary or a major event in your personal life. Below, you’ll find some very insightful folks sharing defining moments from their journeys.

When I moved to the United States, I decided to change my focus from just being a TV and Film artist and I started studying Cosmetology because I feel that it is one of my passions and it is also an art. It is wonderful to transform damaged hair into beautiful, silky hair, etc. This new career makes me think that beauty and art are always together in their different versions. In the same way, I want to continue with my TV projects and content on social networks. Read more>>

Toward the beginning of my healing journey, I was in a completely unrelated field with a corporate job. I attended a weekend retreat for gay men and got to share some of my story about having recently ended a 15-year relationship with an alcoholic narcissist and my very early lessons about self-love. After sharing my story, I had several guys come up to me to thank me and tell me what my story meant to them. I had guys telling me I was an inspiration, which meant the world to me and was not something I’d ever been told before.  Read more>>

The defining moment for me in my professional career was when I realized I wasn’t happy and fulfilled in my career in fashion design. Even though I absolutely love fashion and designing, after 15 years in the industry I felt there was no purpose and I wasn’t happy with my day to day. Fitness was always a big part of my lifestyle and I realized that’s when I was at my best and felt at peace. Having been a dancer and athlete since I was a kid all the way to college, every time I worked out I felt that joy and took me back to how I felt when that was my life. That’s when I took the first step towards becoming a personal trainer with no idea how to even start it and leave behind a 15 year career in fashion. Read more>>

Morgan Tyner

I’m probably the most curious person and I know. That curiosity and passion has guided me on so many pivots and paths in my life. Soul searching for a while, at first I couldn’t discover the source of my passion. I just knew that every single day, I hoped to make a real difference. For awhile, I struggled to trust myself. To trust my gut and God’s plan. I strived to feel truly aligned. I now realize that my old world was so small! And the more I released what no longer served me the bigger my world became! I was craving to hold space for people to become their truest selves, too. I wanted to stand out, be understood for how much I care, and be taken seriously. I wanted to interact and identify with everyone, in every room I entered, on a deeper level. Read more>>
