Alenka’s Story
Hi! My name is Alenka, I am a Super Mom who believes life can be amazing!
Let me share a bit of my story that makes me the Super Mom I am today.
My partner left five years ago, when my baby was 13 months old. My world collapsed overnight. From one day to the next, I was all on my own and I became the only parent in my wonderful little baby's life. I suddenly realized all of the financial responsibility was now on me: our mortgage, loans, expenses... I was so overwhelmed about the situation I just wanted to sit on the bathroom floor and cry, but I knew at the same time I couldn't let this take over me because someone else depends on me. I started to close my heart for everyone, except for my baby. I closed it even for me; I completely shut down. I started to become a shadow of myself...
When I saw my reflection in the mirror one day, I said to myself, “Enough is enough.” I've had enough of allowing men to consume all my energy. I refused to be a victim. I didn't want to be the mother I never wanted to be, the one who is there for everyone but forgets about herself. That day, I stumbled upon an online program called 'Discovering the Woman In Me', and I decided to sign up. Step by step, I learned a lot and started doing what I knew best—to listen. It was very difficult at times, but I knew in my heart this was right for me, so I followed through. I remember how after one exercise I started to cry so hard I couldn't even catch my breath, but I knew it's all part of the process to become a better version of myself. Not a better mom, friend, or worker, but a better ME! I saw a pair of beautiful brown eyes looking at me with a sparkle in their eyes, and I knew I could not quit. I’ve had good and bad moments, but I never gave up. After some time, I saw in my reflection how my eyes sparkled the way they used to.
I believe that every woman deserves to feel good in her skin, that our energy can make a world much better and happier place, and that you don't need to be 'perfect', you just need to be good enough. I learned TAO face yoga, a breathing technique, and other workouts which helped me realize my soul's calling. This is what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I became an instructor and built my own business.
I am here to help other women get in touch with their inner selves and achieve their goals by guiding them towards a place of inner harmony and balance. We are so used to living by the standards and rules set by men, that we forget about ourselves. By listening to our true inner-self, we can form our own path without others dictating us how to live our lives. This fills us with a beautiful power we can pass along to our loved ones—our children, partners, friends... Because, unfortunately, we can't pour from an empty glass. I have been teaching other Super Moms how to resurface from dark depths like a Phoenix, and be reborn from the ashes.
I would not change my journey for anything in the world, because it brought me where I am today and I am here to show other Super Moms how they, too, can transform themselves. Super Moms, don't let anyone stop you. We are the future! Live the life you want to live!
