LPP #4 The Elephant in The Room with Kelly VanLeeuwen Liveng Proof Podcast

    • Self-Improvement

Kelly VanLeeuwen

Maya Movement Arts

Kelly is a fearless mover & shaker with a tenacious passion to effect the change she wants to see in the world. She has little tolerance for gossip, favoritism, and back-channel negotiations. She speaks refreshing truth and brings light to the elephant’s in the room. She’s not afraid to [diplomatically] share her voice. It is with this feverous drive that she has been able to change the conversation from the perceived dichotomy between creating art and financial freedom.



 

IN THIS EPISODE:



We cover Kelly’s life, process, goals & business vision

We discuss how her past experiences played a pivotal role in forming her passions for movement, human form, and the power of physical touch

The winding road she took to get where she is today

How her free-thinking spirit and value for truth paved the way for her ability to take the road less traveled

How she deals with judgment and assumptions made by others

We discuss her struggles, vulnerabilities, and how she recovers from failure

How she began to recognize certain behavior patterns during phases of her life and how they fed into deeper emotions

How she deals with “Imposter Syndrome” – the feeling that we will be “found out” or that we don’t actually know what we are doing

How she got involved in yoga and ultimately became hooked





Kelly specializes in Thai Massage for athletes–including:



* cyclists

* para-cyclists

* triathletes

* Ironman competitors
