#160: The Role of Vulnerability with Angela Pereira

Today we are speaking with Founder and CEO, Angela Pereira.  Angela is a Registered Kinesiologist, a holistic nutritionist, and a yoga teacher in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She is the founder of First Line Education Inc., a continuing education provider for new and experienced movement therapists who want to work with clients online.

In 2018, Angela became a holistic nutritionist to better understand the connections between systemic inflammation, the immune system, and chronic disease - particularly anxiety and depression.

Beginning in early 2019, Angela shifted her business entirely online and moved away from working with clients. Together with her team, Angela now enjoys creating and teaching a wide variety of webinars and courses for new and experienced health care pros. She welcomes movement therapists of all stripes who are interested in teaching with the First Line Education team.

In this episode, we discuss:

1. Understanding your values, choosing 3 – 7 and the top 3 become the filter in how you manage your energy throughout the day. Boundaries become the way of managing your own personal power/energy, and these personal rules guide how you conduct yourself with others.  Boundaries are critical in business as well as our personal lives.
2. Boundaries actually simplify your life by helping you make decisions that are in line with your values.
3. Choosing yourself is always the best choice you can make. Life isn’t meant to be easy yet choosing ourselves first is where we must start.
4. Life requires hard work and a little bit of grace and compassion. We aren’t meant to do this alone. That is how we stay stuck and don’t go very far. Grace and compassion can take a long time to learn and are literally the most valuable lessons.
5. We discuss the power of sleep, cortisol levels, our sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, and how important restorative work is for us especially as we are building businesses and working toward goals. Restorative space creates physiological and emotional space, which allows us to recharge. 
6. Remember that Rome wasn’t built in one day. It really does require consistent effort, faith, trust, and patience to bring our ideas to life.
