That's why my own life learnings, and the salvation I have found in fitness and mindfulness, have made me uniquely well-suited to this path of guidance.I now believe it is my calling to help others experiencing the same difficulties, because I not only understand what it feels like to have lost hope for yourself and for your future, but also know how beautiful life is on the other side, and how to get there.After spending time with me, you will come away with:✅ A restored sense of self✅ A healthier body and mind✅ A newfound optimism for the future✅ Improved harmonic balance at all levels: physical, emotional, and spiritualThrough powerful bespoke coaching conversations and wellness training, you will learn to take charge of your life and unlock your true potential—to turn your challenges into gifts and find in yourself a hopeful, empowering, and rejuvenating self-love.About the Host:Cordelia Gaffar is the Ultimate Joy Monger.
