Have you ever wanted something so badly and knew it was meant to be but money was the only thing standing in your way?

I know. I’ve been there – more than once.

When I finally got accepted to the university of my dreams (after being rejected two years prior) it no longer was a matter of could I attend but quickly became a matter of how could I afford it.

Despite my humble beginnings I was determined to make my dream come true and knew in my heart that,

 where there’s a will there’s a way.

Thankfully with the support of financial aid (aka student loans) I was able to attend the prestigious University of Southern California (go Trojans!) and get the education I so deeply valued, that ultimately would change the course of my life forever.

The experience and connections I made throughout university served me well beyond my textbook education and really pushed me outside my comfort zone.

I met people from all over the United States, I learned skills that would enhance my career (and life), but most importantly I expanded my vision of who I could be and the life I wanted to experience in this world.

Because let’s face it.

Growth can only happen outside our comfort zone and we are responsible for our own happiness.

Which is why, as a coach, yoga teacher, writer and speaker, I’m so passionate about guiding others on their path to also experience joy, love, peace and freedom.

This past Sunday I just wrapped up my, first-ever, virtual Facebook coaching group Nourish Yourself and I’m so inspired to continue sharing my message and this work because quite simply…it works!

So often we get consumed and stressed out from modern day living, that we forget to take care and nourish ourselves.

We think we’re okay running on fumes but the truth is that the body remembers.

The cumulative lack of self-care and self-love will eventually catch up and manifest in a myriad of ways negatively affecting physical, emotional and mental health.

Speaking from first-hand experience,

going on retreat is one of the most transformational experiences you can ever have.

When you say “YES” to yourself and allow distance from your normal routine, this truly has the power to positively change your life – in more ways than one. By giving yourself permission to retreat you gain clarity and space for something new to enter into your life.

Feeling immensely grateful for all the incredible teachers I’ve had on my journey I’ve decided to continue paying it forward by launching a retreat scholarship for my Ibiza retreat next month, June 24^th – 29^th.

The Bo Cho retreat scholarship is €500 redeemable directly towards the Ibiza wellness retreat investment.

If you feel you’re being called to further your life curriculum and join me in Ibiza next month then I encourage you to apply.

Or if you think my retreat and my work may resonate with someone you know then I’d love if you would please FORWARD this email.

To apply for the Bo Cho retreat scholarship send a video (minimum 5 minutes) of you answering the following:

Why are you interested in attending Leslie’s Ibiza retreat and how would this experience change your life?

Good luck and I look forward to connecting with you soon!

Much love and gratitude,

Leslie xx

This scholarship is in loving memory of my best friend Bo Cho, who left this earth way before I was ready to let her go.

Her dedication as a mother, wife, daughter, sister and friend continue to inspire my work and me in service to others, most especially mothers, in helping make this world a better place.
