Passion Stories with Free To Flourish
Welcome to the Passion Stories Podcast, a conversational series that features people who have made career transitions into work they feel fulfilled with, or started their own passion business.
We talk about when they decided to make the change, why they do the work they do, what helped them overcome obstacles with the transition, and any tips that they would give to others sitting on the idea of making these big changes.
People from the environmental, social change, health and wellness, and creative industries come on to share their story in hopes to inspire others to go after their own professional dreams.

Passion Stories with Free To Flourish
Spiritual Designer: Maja Re
I chatted with Maja Re, a Spiritual Designer, who shared her story of leaving her corporate interior design job to pursue work as a yoga teacher. Maja has found her purpose in work where she is helping others heal.
Her work has also evolved into more than teaching yoga where she has been able to merge her skill sets and experiences. She is now designing retreat center spaces and also teaching yoga for corporate companies.
She talks about how you can get creative in supporting yourself and making things work when you first make the leap in making a professional transition. Often times having constraints and things that initially look like barriers can push you into finding creative solutions, especially when you are early on in your entrepreneurial journey. We also talked about how just looking at what the next right step might be is sometimes all you need to focus on (and can help you feel less overwhelmed).
