things shifted for me recently...

friend,

In my previous email I started shedding light on some big shift that happened in my personal life in May and June and my journey with Shadow Work…

This email is an extension of that…a continuation of the reflections.

5 years ago ONE very important word became my compass, and changed everything about my life…

Early on in my entrepreneurial journey, I’ve decided that success to me meant way more than hitting made-up numerical income goals.

I had ZERO desire to stack money and lose LIFE!

So from the start it was a very conscious decision for me to measure my success in FREEDOM.

My success benchmarks were…

I wanted to travel, to move wherever I wanted, to only take on clients I enjoyed working with, to charge for value not hours & to decide when to work & when not to.

For the last 5 years this word has guided every business decision I’ve made so far.

And it paid off!!

Because instead of chasing after something I’ve been told is important, I chased after my appetite for a life well lived.

A life I can brag about.

While making amazing money doing only what my soul came here to do (like the Vivacious Retreats)

I still can’t believe I made money while playing.

I made money doing exactly what I think is fun.

I made money while also resting when needed.

I made money living my purpose & helping women.

All while not following the money but following my JOY & this feeling of being FREE ✨

Lately I’ve been rethinking & redefining my personal measure of success

I’m looking at new compass which is PRESENCE.

Sitting with questions like:
What does full presence mean? What does it mean in my business? In my personal life?

While freedom now is achieved,
I’m ready for more presence & depth in my connections, offers & content.

Presence is the new currency.
It’s the gift you give people in a world that’s full of distractions & beautifully crafted content created by AI.
Presence is what can’t be replaced or replicated.

What does presence mean to you?
Please reply back to this email, I would love to hear it from you and respond back personally

And this is the depth of work I want to bring you to my next and final retreat this year.

This one is super special because I’m taking you to my homeland — EGYPT. In December which is honestly the most perfect weather in Egypt!

I want to make this an easy YES for the right woman who is ready to let her FULL presence, wisdom, and story lead her brand (not alogorithms or income goals), not overextending or performing…

The woman who knows she has a lot more to say and share than just her offers…

I’m gifting you $500 off + early access + 6 months payment plan.

My early bird offer expires July 19th!
