Shownotes

Today, Ilana Kozakiewicz is a Kinesiologist, Yoga and Meditation Teacher, and Mindfulness Consultant. But until 2016, Ilana had over a decade of work as an accountant, working for large energy corporations.

It sounds like a massive career transition, so I invited Ilana to share with us why and how she did it. I'm so glad she said yes. It's great for those in career transition or actively planning their next career steps to learn from professionals who have done significant career changes themselves.

About our guest, Ilana Kosakiewicz:

Ilana Kosakiewicz one of Australia’s leading kinesiologists, energy coaches, and yoga and meditation teachers. She is a wholefood lover, an entrepreneur with a past life spent working in the corporate world as a CPA accountant.
