Movement is medicine ๐ค
Hi, my name is Aria.
Ever since I can remember, Iโve always been incredibly ambitious.
From age 10 it would take me hours to fall asleep because my mind would be so full of ideas. I was obsessed with self-improvement, and building something I was proud of.
A decade later, this ambition manifested as perfectionism and overworking.
I would work 15 hours a day to achieve the goals I set for myself.
I sacrificed my sleep, nutrition, and exercise to complete more work.
One evening, I found myself on my living room floor, typing until I fell asleep.
I realised in that moment that I couldnโt continue to live like that.
I still wanted to achieve big things, but not if I was sacrificing my health and happiness in the process.
I knew there had to be another way, and I made it my mission to find it.
Through a year of completely reworking the design of my life, I realised this: movement FUELS productivity.
Spending my mornings at the gym training wasnโt a waste of time - it improved my focused and GAINED me time back.
In the following year alone, I:
- 2-5xโed my income
- Grew almost 100k followers (@byariaemily)
- launched my first business
- hosted a podcast with over 50,000 streams
- became an award-winning founder
And SO MUCH more.
But the part that Iโm most proud of is that I didnโt burn out.
I now deeply believe that success is more than possible to achieve without costing your health, happiness, and sanity.
