Today I am excited to introduce you all to Kiesha Yokers! I recently hired Kiesha to facilitate a breathwork session at my Unplug From Fear Retreat in Everett, WA. Her energy, authentic and real presence was such a blessing to our group. I can't wait for you all to learn more about her today!

In this episode we talk about:

-Her journey to exploring breathwork and what led her to look for help.

-Kiesha shares one of her favorite tools that you can utilize starting today.

- a 3 minute breathing exercise.

-I ask Kiesha to share a bit about how she hears her intuition through her body and what she has done to practice this!

-We talk about the importance of nervous system regulation as a parent.

The 411 on Kiesha:

Kiesha Yokers is a trauma-informed breathwork facilitator and somatic embodiment life coach who helps people reconnect with their bodies and heal through nervous system regulation. Her own path—from childhood anxiety to embracing trauma healing in 2020—inspired her passion for holistic wellness.

With more than 15 years as an elementary school teacher, Kiesha blends the heart of an educator with the depth of somatic practice. She holds certifications as a trauma-informed breathwork facilitator, meditation teacher, holistic health coach, and is an ICF-accredited embodiment life coach. Her advanced studies in Somatic Experiencing and at the Strozzi Institute keep her work rooted in the latest trauma-informed approaches.

Equity is central to her mission. Kiesha offers sliding-scale classes, collaborates with nonprofits, and shares free tools online to reach those often excluded from wellness spaces.

A mother of two and proud military spouse, she brings warmth, accessibility, and lived experience to her belief that wellness is for everybody.

This workshop is made possible by Core Contractors (Title Sponsor) and the Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce (Host).

Tune in for this special episode and think of Levi the next time you're looking for a contractor.

In this episode we talk about:

-Levi's journey to starting his own company, Core Contractors.

-How his company stands out from other contracting companies- their values and the way they operate the company.

-How important it is to be present and recognize when emotions come up- they mean something!

-Why you should join us on November 6th in Marysville at the Burnout Prevention & Recovery Workshop!

The 411 on Levi:

Levi Stearns is a born Entrepreneur that started out like most people following family into a working field. He became a journeyman plasterer at the age of 23 and worked as a union plasterer for 6 years. He decided to get out of construction and into sales when he became a realtor in 2006 and endured the great recession with great success as a blue-collar work ethic, and determined spirit led him to heights he didn't expect. He then ventured into insurance to broaden his sales career and found more success, yet he was not home enough and wanted to find something new. The opportunity to work in a high-volume mitigation company came along and he took it. He trained multiple top producing project managers and was the top project manager in volume for almost six years. The want for more was always there and this was the Entrepreneurial bug. He went on to lead multiple other businesses to millions in production and then started his own construction company with a fellow team member. Unfortunately, when that partnership was no longer viable, he struck out on his own to start Core Contractors LLC. The company is just a couple months short of two years and has seen tremendous growth. Levi and his wife have two children and three cats and live happily in Lake Stevens WA.

Meet Vira Smith! In today's episode Vira shares with us about her journey from a place where she feared death- to where it opened a door for her that she'll never shut!

In today's episode we talk about:
-How VIra's journey with spirituality began from a fear of death.
-Her experience learning Reiki, Yoga Nidra, Hypnotherapy and Holistic Nutrition and how she uses these tools in her daily life.
-The importance of remembering that you can take these classes/certifications for YOU- you don't have to take on clients. These tools are meant to be used in our daily lives!
-VIra's experience with channeling different energies.

The 411 on Vira:
Born and raised in Washington state, Vira is the youngest sibling in a family of ten children. She resides with her sister Elizabeth in Tacoma along with her fluffy feline, Hampton. Vira has been described as a kind-hearted, nurturing listener. She is also a certified Reiki Master, Yoga Nidra Facilitator, Hypnotherapist, and Holistic Nutrition Coach.

Her journey into all things healing and spiritual started with her fear of death and it opened a door for her she would never dare to shut. She achieved a life-long passion of working with primates as a care-staff intern while finishing her Bachelor’s Degree at The Evergreen State College in 2007.

She now works to expand her consciousness, live mindfully, and re-incorporate the practice of her healing modalities on others along with sisters Elizabeth and Zara as a way to lean into her purpose in this lifetime in a healthy and balanced way.
