In this solo episode, I introduce you to a tool that will help you to finally get the results you’ve been looking for - regardless of the area of your life you are pursuing. We have it all wrong - thinking that we will accomplish overnight success and receive instant gratification. Tune in to hear about a tool I refer to as “Inevitably and Eventually” which will help you to shift your perspective around aiming high and keeping promises to yourself.

Bea's always been enthusiastic about getting to know people on a deeper level and helping them to reconnect with their essence. In her personal quest of seeking purpose in life, she experienced a variety of mindset, energy and healing techniques. Although all of them contributed in some way to her journey, she always felt like there was a missing piece.

She felt inspired to combine different techniques, such as ThetaHealing, Breathwork, Hypnosis, Mindset Coaching, Meditation and others in an attempt to fulfill that integration gap she identified in these techniques separately. This gave birth to a whole new experience with a massive transformative power, what we know today as ThetaBreathwork™. 

Bea has made ThetaBreathwork™  her life's mission, and she is committed to sharing this technique all around the world through her new ThetaBreathwork Certification so that other coaches, therapists, and wellness practitioners can create massive transformation to themselves and others too.

Michele Colella is the City Owner of The Beauty Boost Pittsburgh, a vibrant community for those who identify as women to become their most healthy, empowered, and beautiful selves through regular events and activities–from fitness sessions to empowerment and entrepreneur workshops, social gatherings, and weekend retreat getaways–creating opportunities for personal growth, genuine connection, and a good time. With over 100 active small business collaborations and a community and event attendee base of over 1,000, The Beauty Boost is reshaping how women in Pittsburgh connect.

Michele, a former fitness competitor and health and life coach with over a decade of counseling experience, found herself at a transitional point. Grappling with career changes, a breakup, and outgrown friendships, she yearned for friendship with like-minded women and took a brave step by attending a coffee meet-up she found online alone. The Beauty Boost hosted that meetup, and Michele walked away with more than she could have imagined. She took ownership of the Pittsburgh chapter, one of 25 nationwide, within two years of her first experience. Michele’s journey from member to owner underscores one of her strongest beliefs: monumental change often starts with small, courageous steps.

She rekindled her passion for empowering women to create joy-filled, healthy lives. She fell back in love with fitness, food, and life through her own personal journey. She did things that scared her–things she didn't think she was strong enough to do–and discovered she was more than capable. Michele began living in her authentic self. There's magic in connecting with other women; you never know how one interaction could impact your life.

In this solo episode, I chat with you about the inspiration I received years ago from a sermon given by Joel Osteen on redeeming your time.

I hope this provides you value and encourages you to take steps towards a change in the way you live your life - to a place where you redeem your time, instead of spending it.
