How I Manifested Moving to Mexico
I changed my life by moving to Mexico in September 2021 (which I will explain how I did it) and also I want to share what my life was like several years before making this leap.
When I was 22 I had just graduated from University and got offered my dream job in Fashion Marketing. I immediately said YES, packed up my belongings, moved to Montreal, Canada and thought I was starting an exciting next chapter of my life.
Except nothing was further from the truth.
I woke up every day feeling exhausted, hitting the snooze button until I finally got out of bed and rushed to get ready. I would trudge through snow to get to the subway and commute an hour to my office job.
I had bosses criticize my work, delt with catty co-workers, I lived 8 hours away from my friends and boyfriend, financially my whole paycheck went to paying for my living expenses and student debt, and to top it off I wasn't eating healthy and felt very self conscious of my body. Honestly the list goes on. 😩
I knew this isn't how I wanted to keep living, but it felt like no matter how hard I tried to make positive changes in my life I would stay stuck.
This was my life before I got into personal development, launched my business and had my spiritual awakening. In the years following I started learning more about mindset, limiting beliefs, law of attraction, and controlling my energy. That’s when things started to really shift for me.
Real change started to occur in my life in December 2019 (was 26 then), when I decided my dream was to leave Canada for the winter and travel somewhere tropical.
I challenged myself to listen to a meditation every day for 30 days, visualize myself travelling somewhere warm for the winter and get up from my meditation living as if my prayer had been answered.
I followed the formula - I had a clear focused thought on what I desired and felt gratitude as if it was already here. (I teach this process in depth in my course Embodiment)
At this time I had no savings, no one to travel with, no family that lived abroad for me to visit, I had no idea how I was going to make my dream of travelling during the winter to somewhere tropical happen. 🤷♀️
After 25 days of meditating, it was Christmas Day. I was really happy and enjoying time with my family and I decided to let go of my dream, it wasn’t going to happen.
Then that same night, as soon as I surrendered, my friend sent me a link to an eco-community in Costa Rica and they had volunteer positions available.
I reached out to apply and got accepted! I was going to Costa Rica for 6 weeks to volunteer in a spiritual & wellness community!! This was the PERFECT opportunity for me 😍
I had enough points on my credit card to book a 1 way flight and I received some cash as a Christmas gift that I could use as personal expenses on the trip.
I was amazed… how did I go from no money, living at home in cold Canada, to flying to tropical Costa Rica for my dream trip and having one of my most life changing experiences!?
Ever since that trip my life has drastically changed. I started to hone my skills at mastering my thoughts & emotional state. I got clear on what experiences I wanted to manifest into my life, I decided I could shift how I saw myself and embody the energy of my future self living the life I desired.
In the past couple years my life has unfolded in magical ways and looks very different from my life at 22. Such as:
Had my first $10k month in my business (from brand photoshoots and selling my brand photography course)
Worked with my first 7 figure client creating a brand video and brand photos for her
Travelled back to the community in Costa Rica for another 3 months
Had dance parties in the jungle, celebrated my birthday on the beach, had big community dinners with new friends
Girls trip over Christmas in a beautiful hotel in Nosara, Costa Rica
A friend invited me on their family vacation to a 5 star resort, we went to Cirque du Soleil, got massages, went out for fancy dinners & went sailing on a private boat on the Caribbean Sea
Went on many fun, adventurous dates to Chichen Itza, dinners overlooking the ocean, swimming in cenotes, picnic on the beach, rooftop drinks, dancing, rode on the back of a motorcycle, went to a temezcal ceremony & more!
Go to do all my favourite activities like breathwork, sound healing, ice baths, acro yoga classes, ecstatic dance, cliff jumping
Lost 25lbs while travelling and felt light, fit, strong and vibrantly healthy
Rented an Airbnb with friends in Costa Rica and it was the exact description of my dream home I wrote in my journal a year prior
Go certified as a coach & started working with soul aligned clients
Created my online course Embodiment in March 2021
Travelled for a total of 7.5 months to Costa Rica & Mexico (at the end of 2020 and first half of 2021)
After travelling to Costa Rica and Mexico for 7.5 months I knew I wanted to live somewhere tropical permanently and not live in Canada anymore.
I thought this would be hard to do but in September 2021, after seeing my family back in Canada for 3 months, I flew back to Mexico and found another community to volunteer at. I sold some belongings, packed up a couple bags, bought a 1 way flight and had just booked an on-going marketing client so I could work virtually abroad.
After a couple weeks I left the community I was volunteering at and booked an Airbnb with a friend for a month. When she left at the end of her trip I started apartment hunting. After 3 weeks I signed a 6 month lease for the perfect place for me that was beautifully decorated, spacious, and was in a gated community a 10 minute drive to the beach.
A few months later I applied for temporary residency and was accepted! Then fast forward to June 2022 and I moved into a loft apartment that is a 10 minute WALK to the beach!
So since September 2021 a lot more magic has come into my life such as:
Officially moved to Mexico, got an apartment, got accepted for my temporary residency, moved into a loft a short walk to the beach & my kitty lives here now too
Working part time for Pursuit of Bliss (which is also my favourite podcast!) doing marketing work for her
Booked brand photoshoots with wonderful clients, had my own photoshoot in Mexico, launched my new website
Doing brand strategy, copywriting, coaching and photography for entrepreneurs in the wellness & spirituality space
Started taking salsa & bachata classes, and going to beach volleyball every weekend
Made a bunch of new friends in Playa, most are digital nomads and also into spirituality
Had a friend come visit me for my 29th birthday and my family came to visit for 2 weeks
Started hosting local events with a friend & also attended lots of breathwork, sound healing and ecstatic dance events myself
Living a life that is peaceful, fun, with loving people, my feminine energy feels nurtured, I feel happy and healthy, I'm living a slow, intentional lifestyle
Get to go to the beach as much as I want!
I feel happy, grateful, at peace, fulfilled and excited about life!
Also another surprising fact, I created my dream life and moved to Mexico without having a lot of money or savings, which is even more mind blowing to me!🤯 I shouldn’t be living this life, this shouldn’t be possible...
I am not sharing this to show off, but I did want to share how having a resilient mindset and doing the inner work that I now teach inside Embodiment completely changed my life for the better. I hope to inspire you because your life can change in a short time and experiences you once dreamed of can become your present reality.
I also want to show that creating a life that is magical is not just about money, wealth and success. (those are great though!)
Adventure, travel, memorable experiences, nourishing relationships, romance, self-love, doing things outside your comfort zone, thriving health, having fun, inner peace - that is worth manifesting too! 🤗
I created Embodiment as a way to breakdown everything I had learned about mindset, personal development and energy. Also to clarify the steps I was taking. Now it's packaged into a step by step program to teach others how they can achieve these results too!
This course is about personal transformation.
Rewiring your mind to see possibilities.
Repeatedly feeling the emotions of your future self.
Becoming clear on your goals and what your most happy and fulfilling life looks like.
I keep coming back to these same concepts and apply them to my life again and again. I also keep adding to the course (which you get to keep for life!) 🙌
The newest addition in the course is the Hypnosis Library with 4 new hypnosis tracks that help you reprogram the beliefs in your subconscious mind & become an energetic match for the future you desire.
My online course Embodiment is a great next step on your personal development & spiritual growth journey. This course teaches you how to change at the identity level, you will be shifting your beliefs and emotions to be aligned with your Highest Self in order to create your most happy and fulfilling life.
