In this episode, Anjua Maximo and I discuss how and why we’ve become so disconnected from our bodies, and how sensual movement can help us reconnect. It was as a manager for fitness apparel giant lululemon athletica that Anjua first fell in love with personal development. What she learned about leadership and entrepreneurship inspired her to join forces with her husband in launching a business venture in 2015 that became GrooveRyde - Cleveland’s premier boutique micro-gym. While GrooveRyde’s mission to transform you from the inside out was a labor of love, Anjua’s true passion lies with her Electric Life personal development and leadership courses and Pure Mvmnt classes. In 2014 she became a certified Life & Leadership Coach through the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). From teaching women to create a powerful vision for their lives to guiding them to a positive and powerful connection to their sensual energy, she has found ways to use movement and personal development to coach the ‘Whole Woman'. In this episode, we discuss: ·      The two major moments that changed the direction of her life. ·      How our childhood views and expectations of what we should look like can impact our connection to our bodies and our sexuality. ·      How reconnecting with our bodies through movement can lead to major emotional breakthroughs. ·      Our tendency to compartmentalize certain parts of ourselves, especially our sexuality and sensuality. ·      All the mixed messages we get about our sexuality and how that impacts with our view of ourselves. ·      The importance of only loosely holding onto goals so we can flow more with life. ·      What it means to live an electric life. ·      The power of making friends with and trying to understand the negative voice in your head. ·      The importance of understanding your energy and identifying the energetic drains in your life. ·      How we need to identify and question the values that were place upon us and choose which values are right for our lives.
