Marisa Raymond, a successful genetic counselor, mom, coach and yoga teacher talks about her journey from being a serious perfectionist attempting to control life to a Fun-preneur who embodies Mary Poppins' philosophy: \"In every job that must be done there is an element of fun. You find the fun and *snap* the job's a game.\"\nMarisa began her professional career as a genetic counselor in the U.S., a career she loved; however, when her husband was offered a job in France they felt they couldn't pass up this once-in-a-lifetime chance. Marisa shares the thrills and disappointments that came with the decision to move to what she and Concetta call the 'Ex-pat Planet'. They discuss the unique experience of living and thriving in a foreign land, which the stress of ultimately led to Marisa having serious health issues.\nListen in to see how she rose up out of that challenge by living life in the moment, discovering that when she let go of control, connecting with her children as well as her own inner child, she actually had MORE control. This led her to find a way to bring together her past work experience, her natural talents, what she loves doing and the element of FUN to create Marisa Raymond Coaching.\nShe and Concetta explore the notion that by tapping into our 'inner Mary Poppins and inner child' we can get curious about the world around us. This allows solutions, connections and possibilities we never imagined to arise naturally. Marisa is passionate about working with families to enable them to release their frustrations so they can create their own unique visions of their family and how they want to live their lives.\nShow Notes\nFind the Fun so *SNAP*\u00a0life becomes a game you want to play again\nLiving on the Ex-Pat Planet\n\"Explore, Dream, Discover\" - Mark Twain\nLearning one step at a time\nTap into your inner \"Curious George\" (i.e., inner child)\nTwo ears, one mouth - listen more than talk\n\"Adulting\" is hard and messy\nThe Pros and Cons of navigating a new environment and culture\nMagic of creating in a group\nRole of Yoga and Meditation\nThe healing path of Kids Yoga\nGiving up control in order to find your way\nGetting to reinvent yourself\nPandemic thoughts\nResources Mentioned\nMagic Misfits Series by Neil Patrick Harris\nBren\u00e9 Brown\nMarisa's Website\nMarisa Raymond Website\nSocial Media\nFacebook:\nMarisa Raymond Coaching\nMarisa Raymond Yoga\nInstagram: marisaraymond77\nSpecial Free Offer Just For Our Listeners\n\n\nMusic by Jonn Serrie\nIntro and Outro music\u00a0composed and recorded by Jonn Serrie.\n\n\nWebsite:\u00a0http://www.thousandstar.com/\nRecord Labels and Links to Jonn\u2019s Music:\u00a0Valley Entertainment\u00a0and\u00a0New World Music","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/6da2d5a6-6516-4edd-9761-3a68cd6c9733/1329e740-77bb-11eb-ba6b-e75e2a707a23.jpg"}
