Meet Your Coach: Morgan
Background: certificates etc
Back then my mind used to work differently. I studied Molecular Cell Biology and Bioengineering, and I thought that the only things that were true… were the things we could see. Even though my job was working with invisible puzzle pieces, that was still more real to me than the spirit world. All that changed in the blink of an eye.
I suddenly saw the truth about my relationship, so we ended it. That meant I had to move out of my “perfect” house in my “perfect” town.
The company I had worked so hard for, poured my soul into, went bankrupt and laid off almost all of it’s employees.
And to top it off, I tore my ACL and shredded my meniscus. All within a couple months. If this wasn’t the epitome of “the hole is where the light enters”, I don’t know what is.
I realized the answer was societal programming. I had been trained to “want” these things, and once I got them I wasn’t satisfied. That’s when I realized there was a different answer out there for what I really wanted, and I was going to find it.
Next, I moved to Ubud, Bali in Indonesia. I completed a 200 hour Tantric Hatha Yoga and Meditation teacher training.
My story started in engineering science, and moved to the science of consciousness. Just three years ago, I was a bioengineer trying to save the world. Once a spiritual awakening rocked me, I couldn’t look back. Since then I’ve traveled across the world learning different ways to live your best life. I learned from Italian hot springs, Greek islands, Balinese prayer waterfalls, meditation 50ft under the ocean, and more. I realized all I wanted in my life was to exist on a plane of beauty, love, and exploration.
During that time I achieved my 200 hour Tantric Hatha Yoga and Meditation teacher training, understood the chakra system in depth, studied neuroscience based meditations, learned about evidence based heart-brain coherence, and processed it all together.
How Did You End Up Here?
My spiritual journey started on accident, and flipped my entire life upside down. Just three years ago, I was working for a Biotech company doing work to help “save the world”. It was honestly really cool, and the technology was awesome, but I realized during my awakening that changing the world would have a bigger impact if I worked with humans 1 on 1, instead of contributing to another company with lofty promises, who still ultimately needed to answer to the realities of capitalism.
I was in a five year relationship that I thought was headed for “success” - the house, marriage, kids. I had a great job doing what I thought I loved, and a thriving social life. But something still felt off. I was pretty unhappy for someone “on the right path”. I started listening to a podcast about Aura colors and “woo woo” topics, and pretty soon I was asking the universe to show me what my true purpose was. It seemed like it had been waiting for me to ask, because all of a sudden everything was different.
Of course all that was a complete blow, but hey, I asked! I knew there was a plan in there somewhere. I decided I was lucky. I had enough severance to go explore some of my real interests! I love traveling, so I booked a two month solo trip around Greece and Italy. It was supposed to be more countries, but that’s a longer story for later. I explored, learned, met locals, met other solo travelers. It was one of the most magical times of my life.
And it begged the question… “why isn’t my life always like this?”
After my travels I moved to Crested Butte, Colorado to be a Snowboard Instructor. I realized that wasn’t for me, although I did like coaching.
