"For the first time in my life, I feel in control of my entire body."
Mindvalley Certified HoloBody Coach

"For the first time in my life, I feel in control of my entire body."

I wasn't intending to start another coaching program. As a coach, I thought I had enough to focus on for the moment. I was very aware of my relationship with food, and that was working well. I sometimes worked out, going through periods of time where I did the 10x workouts a little bit, and then long stretches of time where I barely moved. "I will fix that someday," I thought.
Fast forward to July 2022, I am in Tallinn at Mindvalley U listening to Ronan. When he started explaining how you should work with your body to transform it into what it can become, instead of trying to conform your body to what you want it to become, something clicked. Finally, fitness made sense to me. It felt connected to my entire life and being, instead of something separate I had to do. 
So I immediately signed up, right? Well, not exactly. Right until the start of Holobody I was in doubt about it. I knew deep down I had to do it, but my mind kept getting into the way. It wasn't until I was coached by two very lovely coaches, that I finally went for it.
It was difficult at times. During the course I went through moving countries, I went through a tough break-up, I got sick at some point. But at every point, the tribe was there to support me, and the program itself was set up in a way that I could keep going every time.
I have never before worked out consistently, and during racing mode, I made it 4 times a week! Not only did I do it, but it felt incredible and I wanted to do it. At no point did the program feel like work, because of the different mindset that Ronan teaches us.
Looking back now at the past 4 months, so much has changed! For the first time in my life, I feel in control of my entire body. Movement is an automatic part of my life, not another task I have to do. I feel stronger, fitter, and generally just happier. 
The best part? This whole journey is just beginning! I will keep building and building on this, and I get to share this with others as well!
