After working in the entertainment industry, I became a dedicated, classroom teacher. I was newly divorced, raising my 3 grade-school kids, alone. From the outside, I looked pretty together but secretly I was becoming more stressed, worn-out & exhausted. ​Having added 2 additional teaching side gigs & a second degree, I was spending way too much time buried under a sea of admin work, grading papers, hustling on my laptop & training others who were then promoted over me. Although I was productive, I was missing precious moments with my own kids. I'd fall asleep in my work clothes & dream about my ever-growing "TO DO" list. I was MI-SER-ABLE. I fought to balance it all. I could feel the wear & tear on my mental & physical health. Overworked. Undervalued. Underpaid. Repeat = a recipe for disaster & burnout. Then it hit me. I woke up to a gut-wrenching, stabbing pain in the left-side of my chest. I gasped for air but I couldn't catch my breath. I just knew I was having a heart attack... Something had to change. I HAD TO CHANGE. ​ A leap of faith, new habits and fast forward, I am here. I've used my love for people & life alignment to build a sustainable business that supports my lifestyle; my well-being, my family, my busy clients & the way I want to live. And, I'm rooting for YOU to be well & take care of you. One small change can make a huge difference. Light. Love. Peace. Gee 🌿 Gayle "Gee" Van Buren-Green, M.S.Ed. "Marie Kondo" of Life Alignment
