I knew my recent trip to Mexico with my dance partner would be transformational.
I was right, but not at all in the way I expected.
Buckle up for one hell of a dramatic story of how my trip turned into a portal for deeper self-trust and love than I even thought possible.
I’ll share the process I took myself through of burning down the trip, my relationship, and even parts of my business to rise like a phoenix from the ashes.
This story will leave you fired up to bring your life and business into total alignment with who you are today, and I’m going to help you.
Join my Burn It Down workshop where I’ll guide you through the process and share for the first time publicly the exciting changes coming to Sarah Plowman Coaching.
