In this podcast episode we are welcoming back a guest, Maria Xenidou PhD to share more about her journey of success and happiness. Maria talks about how a seemingly illogical decision of not signing a contract that she made based entirely on her intuition opened the door to her freedom, from a bound to be the next level corporate employee to an entrepreneurial influencer, blogger, podcaster and agent of positive change.
I love how Maria views the importance of health, spending more time on yourself and enjoying one’s life which played a great role to the kind of life that she’s living right now.
Maria and I see eye-to-eye that it should be Life first not Work First. Each of us has the power to change our story the way we want it be!
The only way to thrive as a person is to be happy about yourself, to love what you do and take advantage of the available resources and share them to empower others!
Part One of Maria's story can be found in episode 7 entitled "Curiosity, Resillience and Resourcefulness"
