Hello, hello. I know when I recorded the last episode of season one, I said that I was going to be taking a two week break and that turned easily into a two month break, but... I definitely think that break was needed. Over these past two months, I've really been doing some discovering of where I want to take this podcast, where I want to take my future, what I picture for myself, and it had been a very overwhelming two months for me, if not a little bit longer, but I was kind of just pushing it down because... I just felt as if my thoughts were so loud and everything that like I want for my life versus what I'm already doing. It was just like, how do I pick one versus where I should be, quote unquote, should be, right? And I think it was for the best that I probably wasn't recording during these past two months. And I would say over the past year, I've been Continuously and diligently praying for clarity and direction in my life. Been searching and I was in a season where it felt really, really confusing to me and as many of you know I am in therapy in which I discussed many of these topics and the options that I was weighing out and Over and over again I just kept saying this one line that I wasn't even realizing that I was saying which was I Want to help people live a healthier and happier life. Well Glorifying God along the way and my therapist brought that up to me She's like I kind of feel as if this is your mission statement like this She's like I don't know what you're gonna do with this yet But you have said this over and over again, and I don't even know if you're aware that you're doing it But even though I have known that for such a long time, like if you go back into my journal, you would see that over and over again, that I want to help people. I want to help people live healthier and happier. And I just feel as if there is a, a place for me in the wellness industry, but I just felt so stuck. I felt like, well, I've already traveled down this road of marketing. Now, how do I travel down a different road and how does it make sense? How do I make it make sense to other people around me when they ask me like what I'm up to? And I was really going down these rabbit holes of what I should be doing and versus what I am doing and just Just trying to make it all make sense. And I was trying to just pick one of the options, so I was like, I have these two options and I need to pick just one. So, during these past two months, I've just been really leaning into what my path and my direction in this life is. And I know God put this on my heart to pursue, and I know it was from Him because it all makes sense to me now. And as hard as my human brain would try, and as many people and professionals I would talk to, I just couldn't make a decision of what to do. So, truthfully, I feel as if God put it on my heart, a woman's wellness ministry. And I know that there is such a need for this in today's world. And I know that more people are curious about their faith and that a revival is happening. And I'm highly fascinated with the mind body spirit connection and how we can use each element to support the others. What I realized now, like looking back in hindsight, is that I was just playing it small. I didn't think there was enough room for everything that I want to do or everything that I already had done. But at the end of the day, it really just all plays together and it actually does make perfect sense. And what I also realized was that Society, or maybe even other people in your life, will try to put you in these perfectly shaped boxes. And we typically choose careers that have perfectly laid out paths because they're safer. And I just don't feel like I fit into any box, and I'm okay with that. I'm okay with my box looking different than others, and frankly, I don't want to be in a box. I know that there is room for everything that I have created and everything that I plan to create and I'm excited to see it all perfectly work together. So with that said, title of this podcast is Here's to New Beginnings. So thank you for listening to my little rant of what I've been experiencing these past two months, but I want to get into now what you can expect moving forward. So I will be doing women's wellness coaching and I am beyond excited for this because I think it's going to be something that you don't really see. Generically like on social media right now. I like to think i'm carving a new path here And what this wellness coaching is going to be for is any woman who wants to live a healthier and happier life and also Has or wants to have a relationship with Jesus and the reason for this is like I said, all the elements of mind, body, and spirit play together. And I mentioned this in my last season in an episode that if there's an element that you feel as if you. are ready to take on in your life, it's going to support the other two elements. So let's say that you start working on your mental health. Over time, you are going to feel more refreshed, and you are going to want to move your body, because you feel better mentally, and then also, if you feel better mentally, you will be able to access a higher power, or God. Because your mind is more clear and open and receptive to these types of things. And it also works the other way too, if you want to start with fitness or nutrition first, or if you want to start with your spirit first. They all work together, and I think that each person has their own. Journey, and there's not a cookie cutter path for this type of thing. My woman's wellness coaching I'm going to be offering one on one training so it's your personalized solution to exactly your needs and then also group coaching and I think these two elements will be a great way to access these services. So I'm very excited to be launching this, and like I said, I know that there is such a need for this right now, and there's so many women that their lives are going to be changed from this. So in my program, I just want to give you a little overview of what you can expect out of one of my coaching programs. So you'll get a personalized wellness plan. You'll get one on one coaching with me. If you decide to go the personalized route and then with group coaching, you'll be supported by so many other women that that'll be on similar journeys with you. nutrition guidance, workout plans, community and support. So with that said, there is a Facebook group and it's actually linked in my bio and it's the wellness hub for Christian woman. So I would love for you to join that. And that's just going to be a great place for people who Share the same experiences as you and you can find encouragement and other women that are like minded and even some people in your area that you could connect with. Exclusive resources is another thing that I'll be offering to just this community. Accountability so in the programs there will be accountability in weekly calls with me and then also check ins as well. And then along with that, I would love for this wellness hub to have so many resources for the different elements of mind, body, and spirit that this can be a place to come to find encouragement and to be able to get the resources that you need or the information that you need to be successful. This will include guides, eBooks. On my website, there will be a blog and that you can kind of just search the topics that you need when you are looking for them. And along with that, I'm, I'm going to be doing a free challenge soon. So stay tuned for that. I think that would be a great way to kind of kickstart this off and get some people involved. So if you are interested in that, let me know, I would love to have you and have you be part of like the kickoff group. So what you can expect from this podcast moving forward is each week I'm going to be sharing on a topic of either mind, body, or spirit. So I'm going to be tailoring each episode to fit into one of those categories each week. And I want to be able to provide you guys with practical advice and even share my own experiences of the different areas and stories that I can share with you guys about where I've come from in these different areas and how I've struggled with each one. And I just want this to be a platform for you to be able to connect with your faith on almost a beginner level because I feel like it can always be overwhelming when you first get started and it just seems overly complicated as well. And I don't want this to be that for you. I want this to be like a simplified version and little bite sized pieces that you can take with you into your every, everyday life. And I feel as if this is kind of what my podcast was about before the season one, kind of tailored to these topics as well, but it wasn't as concise. And I kind of even talked about business and different topics too, which I thoroughly enjoy. But for this season, I'm going to strictly be talking about the mind body spirit connection and how it applies to your everyday life. And I feel as if on Instagram, or I feel as if on social media we usually see one or the other of the topics. So I feel as if you either hear about, Mental health, or you hear about fitness and different fitness influencers out there. And then there are some Christian influencers as well, but I think it really is a whole holistic approach and each element plays a huge part into your life and into your well being. And I think if you have, I like to call it the trifecta, you are You've got the whole package with you and you are heading towards success. So that's what you can expect from me and this podcast moving forward. And... I'm just beyond excited for this because, to me, this is so aligned with my soul and my purpose and I just feel on fire for it, so I'm so ready to get after it. And I heard on this podcast the other day, it's It says, I will always be in editing and revising mode. And I just love that so much because I encourage you not to put yourself in a box and not limit yourself just due to what other people think you should be doing or what you think you should be doing and not wanting to quote unquote like be all over the place or be all over the map. You have the power to do anything you want in this life and I really hope you go for it. So, if there's something that's been on your heart, I hope that you take the leap and you go for it because that dream was planted in your heart for a reason and don't forget that. And I just feel like all the pieces are coming together. Like I said, Everything is going to work together from everything I've already created to everything that I'm going to create, so I just feel like this is a piece of the puzzle. And I'm just really, I'm really happy, so. To see more content like this on a daily basis, you can follow me on Instagram at Sam DeSalvo and also stay tuned for that wellness challenge.
