Hi Chris and Susan here...
One day you will tell your story of how you've overcome what you're going through now, and it will become part of someone else's survival guide
Can you imagine that?
This week we were guest speakers for our health and wellness business sharing our story
13 years online
How the pandemic really changed things for us
We had a wonderful business travelling around the world teaching and training and we absolutely loved it
We had an online education and training business that also generated us a good income
And a ski chalet in the French Alps
Things were looking good
Then COVID hit
Travel was shut down and we were confined to home
Alongside that Mum was diagnosed with dementia and early onset Alzheimers
How were we going to handle the fall out from all of that
And stay sane!
It would be true to say we became obsessed with reading and research into mental health and wellness as a result
We still wanted to live out our dreams of travel and retiring on our terms
But the picture just got that much bigger
And we began to think about mental wellness as well as financial wellness
How could we combine the two
And that it would be something that would benefit the people we've always stood for so that can have a
better retirement lifestyle and the health to enjoy it
The expression "a perfect storm" whilst cliche is what arrived at our door
They do say you attract what you think about the most
Everything was aligning
How could we help people with solutions to mental wellness and financial wellness
As a result of our research relating to Mum's dementia we discovered a holistic mental wellness company focusing on the healing power of the gut-brain-axis
In all honesty we didn't even understand what that meant but the more we read about it the more we saw the benefits
Could it be what we were looking for?
The more we looked into it and the stories we read the more excited we were
There will always be times in your life like that
This was one of those for us
Long story short (despite being able to talk for England) we decided that this was going to be something we wanted to
do
Aligning with The Mental Wellness Company (it's actually trademarked) gives us a business focused on health and wellness products of the highest quality alongside cutting edge online coaching and
mentorship
And that is what really made the difference for us in our decision to get behind this
You only have one life as is famously said
Find YOUR
way to live it
It might take learning some new skills, stepping outside your comfort zone, fear...
And all those things
BUT if you are in or approaching
retirement then NOW is the time to GO FOR IT
If "mental wellness or financial wellness" (or both) makes you STOP AND THINK then let's have a conversation
You can take a look for yourself here see what you think
