I was depressed, insecure, and living in victim mode...
Â
But then I learned about the power of nervous system regulation, self growth, and habits and completely changed my life. Here's my journey.
2019
Years ago I would shape-shift with whoever I was around, feeling the need to "fit in" by any means necessary. But years of faking my personality for so long left me depressed, insecure, and unsure of who *Megan* really was. From that place, I sought superficial validation instead of what I truly wanted in life. I was constantly living in victim mode and just letting life happen to me.
2020
A spiritual awakening followed by a breakup made me painfully aware that I had not been showing up as the person, partner, family member, or friend I wanted to and knew I could be. I started a deep, radical self exploration, determined to discover who I was, to show up better for my loved ones, and to create what I really wanted in life. I read self-development books, listened to podcasts, invested in coaching - it quickly became my passion. Any free time I had was dedicated to learning about healing from past experiences, rewiring subconscious beliefs, mindset, and taking radical responsibility for creating my life.Â
I started actually enjoying my life and reconnecting with what really lit me up - making art, getting clear on how I wanted to show up in the world, doing yoga, being outside, spending time with my loved ones.
2020-2023
From that new energy, I met my love of my life, my fiance Luke. I pursued grad school, internship opportunities, and my dream job in my field of study. The healing work I had done built the confidence that opened doors for me where there were none. I started taking my life into my own hands for the first time.
I had finally stopped surviving my life and started consciously creating it.
2024-2025
I took my passion for self growth, yoga, and leading others and pursued my yoga teaching certification, and became a 200 hour registered Yoga Teacher.Â
Then started sharing what I’d learned about self growth on my podcast, Balance with Megan, and on social media and had people interested in 1:1 coaching sessions. I was finally creating the platform to help women I had been dreaming about.
But… working full time, starting my own business, teaching yoga, investing in coaching, working toward my personal goals, having a social life, making time for family - balancing it all was A LOT and I found myself burnt out many times.
2026
So I started taking what I’d learned about nervous system regulation and rebuilt my systems, created habits and routines to help me actually balance it all.
Â
Through these years of inner work I've noticed a clear distinct pattern:
➔ You can’t take consistent aligned action toward creating the life you want if you’re disconnected from who you truly are and what you want
➔ And you can’t start on the inner work if you’re stuck in stress and survival mode
This is why I created my signature method:
Regulate, Reconnect, Rise
Â
Because through years of inner work, nervous system healing, and rebuilding my life from the inside out, I discovered that sustainable transformation happens in these three phases.
This is exactly how I stopped surviving my life and started consciously creating it.
And it can all happen for you tooÂ
