Antonia Medeiros is a life coach who specializes in helping women create the life that they REALLY want and empower themselves to become who they REALLY are. Antonia started her journey like so many of us by realizing that she wanted more out of her own life. She had a beautiful family and a wonderful career but something was missing; she was feeling lost and unhappy and did not know why. She had "checked all the boxes" but feeling ashamed because she had these negative feelings. She stopped everything and started looking for answers and found a life coach that resonated with her. Flying to the other side of the world and experiencing an intense 4 day journey of self-discovery led her to wanting more for herself and others. She talks with Kim about: Wanting other women to feel that freedom she has found and help them create meaning in their lives. Feeling invisible after age 40. Realizing she was helping to empower women all along in her work as an author and journalist. Women in their 40's and beyond are unstoppable forces that will change the world. We need to step up and set boundaries and still be a good Mom and partner. We are so tuned into what others want us to be and that contributes to loneliness and despair. Once we achieve that feeling of freedom, there's no going back. Antonia is offering an online course called Boundaries Busters to help you say yes to yourself more often by setting boundaries with time, other people and self-care. This course will teach you how to "un-learn" how to say yes to yourself, realize this is not selfish, and give you the energy to care for others too.
