UP #05: Courage, Wisdom, Love, and Intuition. Becoming a 21st Century Goddess with Sierra Bender
Summary: After listening to this passionate interview, you will never doubt your intuition again.<br> Meet the powerful Goddess-force known as Sierra Bender, a true 21st century Renaissance woman who is deeply connected to her life purpose as a healer, activist, and leader in the women’s empowerment movement.<br> After a near-death experience (NDE) from a rare ectopic pregnancy on Dec. 23, 1995, her life was forever changed. Modern medicine saved her life but it didn’t heal her. The NDE woke her up to the ongoing struggles with identity, weight and self-esteem related to the many years of sexual abuse still residing within her core being. On the outside, she conveyed the appearance of success working with celebrities, Wall Street CEO’s, professional athletes, and leaders of Fortune 500 companies as a top-rated personal trainer. All that changed when she “died” on the operating table on that fateful day…and woke up to the truth of the essence at her core.<br> Sierra’s subsequent quest for self-revelation led her across the globe in a driven search for healing. It was time spent in the ashrams of India, the jungles of the Amazon, and the mountains of Peru that guided her to the shamans, yogis, and indigenous healers that showed her the way – and led her to the life purpose that would transform the lives of countless women.<br> She’s the author of the book “Goddess to the Core” (a must read for every woman), the creator of the transformative “Bootcamp for Goddesses” full-week workshops and “Goddess to the Core” weekend workshops, and she is also the founder of the Sierra Bender Empowerment Method® (SBEM), a 4 Body Fit® multi-disciplinary approach to transforming women’s physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies.<br> I had the honor of spending a week with this amazing woman at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY for her “Bootcamp for Goddesses” workshop this past summer. After experiencing Sierra’s work first-hand, I can honestly say that it should be mandatory for every woman living in our current cultural paradigm. If we all tapped into the powerful Goddess within, the current ego-centric, male-dominated paradigm of selfish dominance would quickly collapse and would finally be replaced with the love and kindness that we all share at our core.<br> Today’s extra special interview falls on a very special week. This week is my birth week and it marks the commencement of a new era of life – an exciting time of great transformation. This is exactly what happened to my beautiful sister Goddesses and I during our week with Sierra and her amazing team – great transformation. I can’t think of a better birthday gift to myself than to share the amazing wisdom of a truly exceptional woman with a truly exceptional group of readers and listeners.<br> Enjoy this uber inspiring interview!<br> SHOW NOTES:<br> • Sierra Bender website: <a href="http://sierrabender.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">http://sierrabender.com/</a><br> • Goddess to the Core: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Goddess-Core-Inspired-Workout-Maximize/dp/0738715034/ref=sr_1_1_title_1_pap?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1384832211&sr=1-1&keywords=goddess+to+the+core" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Buy the book on Amazon</a><br> OMG Productions Interview:<br> <br> Are you inspired by this podcast?
