About the Host:
Alysha Myronuk is the creator of the concept myrony (my+irony) which are the crazy coincidences that happen in life we can’t explain…it’s also another word for sign/synchronicity. Myrony is slightly different because it’s synchronicity in motion since it’s up to us to pay attention to the coincidences or signs but also “listen” to the intuitive pull we all get which Alysha believe is our greatest superpower!
Alysha’s life was fairly normal until she got into a car accident that triggered fibromyalgia at the age of 18 and had to deal with that very painful chronic condition along with many other life challenges including loss of both parents, marriage, divorce, severe depression, suicidal thoughts & attempt, alcohol/prescription drug abuse and a full hysterectomy by the time she was 35. Alysha’s strong spiritual connection and tenacity is what helped her through those very dark days that lead into years at times. Later she realized the reason she went through those trying times was so she could help others struggling with life’s challenges and share the understanding of how to move forward.
She now lives in San Jose, CA but still considers herself an East Coast girl at heart after growing up in Northern New Jersey and living in Delaware, Maryland and DC area for her entire life until she moved to California in 2012 in 6 days which is a part of her myronic journey that helped create the shift to tap into her super power that she calls her “Spiritual Spidey Sense” & wants to show you how to do the same!
She is extremely excited to now be following her calling in life by sharing myrony with the world & also helping others through her spiritual coaching business “My Myrony” Mentoring where she uses her psychic gift of “knowing” also known as claircognizance to help her clients through personalized intuitive readings along with her “Unlock Your Blocks” Program to release what they need to move forward and create the life they truly desire all with a little myrony!
So if you are feeling stuck & would like to have a FREE 30 minute intuitive call so Alysha can uncover some of your blocks & maybe even discover the name for your inner superpower then please click the link to schedule a call! www.ThatsMyrony.com/my-myrony-mentorin
