Elizabeth Borelli is the author of the book, Breathe Into Breakthrough. She is a certified life coach (and yoga teacher) who helps growth oriented people to manage negative thinking patterns, shift out of old habits, and move from stuck to unstoppable.

Elizabeth has spent the last decade studying habit change starting with health and wellness.

Elizabeth teaches that we have a a silent influencer inside of us, and until we learn to tune into the subconscious dialogue of the mind body system, our thinking brain can't keep us on track. So she teaches us with her life changing process that she shares with individuals, teams, and organizations.

In this episode we discussed:

• self-compassion and the role of mindfulness in personal transformation
• how change is never a linear process and failure is part of success
• meditation and how it can be different for everyone
• the power of connection and transformation
