Anusia spent 10 years transitioning from law firm lawyer to aligned life, and she's honest about how hard it is to resist the pull of comfort when you're in the messy middle of transformation.They explore:How to live in "the seat of your body" instead of constantly in your mindWhy it's easy to snap back to comfort (and how conviction keeps you moving forward)Why publishing her book was her calling card to find her soul teamThis is a conversation about staying aligned even when everything in you wants to retreat. When you see things for what they are but still have to maintain relationships that aren't soul-aligned, conviction is what carries you through.Connect with Anusia:Website: AnusiaGillespie.comGet her book, Soul Toll: https://a.co/d/0avvaLcdInstagram: instagram.com/anusiagillespieLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/anusiagillespie________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with Wendy:LinkedinInstagram: @wendy.harropFacebook: Phineas Wright HouseWebsite: Phineas Wright House PWH Farm StaysPWH Curated Experience and TravelInterested in being a guest on the show?
