"Empowered me to build the business I now own"

My name is Cathy and I’m the owner of an online yoga school, Cathy Madeo Yoga. While I’ve been teaching yoga for 20 years, I have not had the success that I now have with an online business until recently and it was born out of one of the hardest times of my life
Like many people, when the pandemic hit I was at an all time low. I was newly separated, I had no job or income and I was a new single mom needing to not only support my 2 kids but also needed to stay home with them while schools were closed. I immediately moved into a tiny 2 bedroom apartment to save money and I shared a small bedroom with my then 6 year old daughter for 2 years.
With 0 dollars and one idea I started an online business. Within 6 months I was able to turn that 0 dollars to a 6-figure business and now I have customers in over 40 countries all over the world.
Do you know what I did with the first round of income I made? I invested it right back into the business by investing in myself. 
 I took a course on Mindvalley called Be Extraordinary with Vishen Lakhiani. Taking this course at such a pivotal time helped me pull out the most extraordinary pieces of myself and empowered me to build the business I now own and foster a growing community of yoga teachers and students worldwide.
And in a beautiful turn of events do you know that Mindvalley reached out to me to promote Vishen’s latest book! How’s that for creating an extraordinary life!
Thank you Mindvalley and Vishen for helping me become an extraordinary human!
