    In this heartfelt Valentine’s Day episode of Little Give, Cindy sits down with Elvira Hopper, life, business and legacy coach, international speaker, pro jazz artist and founder of the Miracle Magnet Movement. Born in Naples, Italy and raised in Canada, Elvira shares her powerful journey from living as what she calls a “crap magnet” to becoming a “miracle magnet.” After years of living out of alignment, battling depression, anxiety, corporate burnout and deep shame tied to childhood conditioning, Elvira reached rock bottom. In that surrender, she experienced what she describes as a divinely guided transformation that shifted her identity, healed her marriage, restored her mental health and ultimately led her back to her childhood dream of performing on world class stages. Today, Elvira helps heart centered humans release old stories, trauma and ego driven survival patterns so they can become aligned, authentic and fully self expressed.
