Everyone should have someone like Yvonne in their life.
And now you can, with the I Want More Podcast.
When I moved to Ireland back in 2002, I knew no one but my husband and son. We lived in Skerries, and although Irish people are extremely friendly and hospitable, I found my close friendships mostly amongst the other ‘outsiders’. When I moved to Cavan some years later, it was like starting anew, all over again.
That was in 2008. In those early days, I met Yvonne. Yvonne was a beautician, but every time I arrived for a treatment, I felt I left with so much more. She had a calming aura, and a soothing voice. And although she was considerably younger than me, I quickly realised she was so much more in tune with life, with nature, with the universe, and all the unseen forces and energies around us.
I learned so much from Yvonne. She introduced me to Reiki. I will never forget that first experience. I was stressed out in the lead-up to Christmas with three young children, and two little ones with Carys’s rare syndrome had recently died. I arrived for my treatment already unravelled. Yvonne took one look at me and said, ‘forget your waxing, you need Reiki’. Unconvinced that something like Reiki could help, I nevertheless did as I was told. It was the most beautiful, the most relaxing, the most healing treatment I have ever experienced, and just what I needed at the time. Years later, it was Yvonne who attuned me to Reiki Level 1, so that I could practice on myself, and others close to me.
Yvonne taught me about Manifestation, and the power of Gratitude. She taught me how to develop mantras to help me achieve my goals. These things work, I discovered. I achieved success and recognition for my writing when I practiced these systems. She read my tarot cards, and angel cards. She showed me how to create vision boards. She helped me with practical business matters and entrepreneurship.
She did all this for me and helped me gain the confidence to change my life around, because Yvonne is also a life coach, and she cares for people who want more out of life. Everyone should have someone like Yvonne in their life.
And now you can! Yvonne has just launched her new podcast, I Want More. I Want More is your go to podcast for inspiration, figuring out what lights you up, and unapologetically getting more from life. Yvonne is passionate about de-mystifying and simplifying all things self development. She says, “I want you to have more, do more and be more, and how that looks like, tailor made to you. Thankfully we all want different things or the world would be a very boring place! But some popular examples are more appiness, more joy and more money.”
Now, if you have followed me for a while, you will know that I’m not one for making recommendations on H A G unless they are really special in some way. But I know from my personal experience that Yvonne’s practical tips and tricks work, and I’d like you to benefit from them. Who knows where a bit of positive life coaching will lead? Just listening will make you feel like you have experienced a truly relaxing guided meditation!
You can find Yvonne on her website, www.iwantmore.ie and on Instagram.
So, here is the link to I Want More Podcast… enjoy!
Grá,
Ali, thank you for sharing about Yvonne's podcast. I will have to check it out based on your recommendation. She sounds wonderful and it was lovely to learn a little more about your own journey too. I have only been to one Reiki session and it was so beautiful.
While I admired you from the very start of our relationship, (2016), I noticed a growing confidence and ease with you over time, plus was excited that you were going more holistic in your approach to life. I am so grateful for Yvonne, but more for your open heart and mind in willingness to become more. Please give Yvonne a hug for me!
