Episode 14: Powerfully Transform Your Life by Prioritizing Yourself With Crystal Carnahan

 

How are you prioritizing yourself?

Life and wellness coach, Crystal Carnahan, joins Martha to discuss how you can prioritize yourself by embracing change and a mind-body connection.

Crystal spent 20 years in the restaurant industry, which she describes as amazing and challenging but without much growth. The death of her mom led to many unprocessed feelings that with time turned into an alcoholism “mess”. She explains to us how she later turned that mess into her message and mission.

As women, we tend to lose ourselves in our roles and forget who we truly are. That needs to change; learn to prioritize yourself for you to become the CEO of your life and own who you are. You can only show up for your loved ones if you show up for yourself.

Crystal has mastered the science of connecting mind and body to create a lived experience, and with her experience in the restaurant industry, wellness education, and passion for exploration, she’s teaching women how to prioritize themselves.

Tune in to find out how you can start prioritizing yourself first so you can show up holistically for yourself and your loved ones.

Having turned her personal life from a mess to a mission, she will teach you the power of change and transformation to maximize success in health and wellness.

  • Learn to prioritize and nurture yourself. As women, we tend to care for and nurture others while not putting the same energy into ourselves. You need to realize that only you can show up for yourself to live the life you want to live.   

  • How to take care of yourself holistically starting with your mind, body, and soul. Start by setting the standard of how you want to live your life by asking for help from your loved ones and avoiding situations that drain you.

  • The power of connecting with your sensory system. Teach yourself to be mindful and to feel with all your senses throughout your daily activities, so you can stay connected and present.
