Post pandemic, many of us have begun to rethink how we live our day-to-day lives – the food we eat, how much we sleep, and the time we spend with people and things important to us. Alexandria and Akin Ayodele discuss how to reframe the narrative and build a positive rapport with the unconscious mind to build sustainable habits that support a healthy work-life balance. This discussion will uncover the reward in personal ownership and accountability required to avoid burnout and live a genuinely balanced life.

Speakers:  Alexandria and Akin Ayodele

Alexandria Ayodele worked as a licensed esthetician and natural beauty expert in her previous life. Alex then began specializing in problematic skin and soon discovered that the only sustainable way to maintain great skin is to keep a healthy gut. With a passion for health, she felt that her purpose was bigger than providing facials and teaching clients what products to buy. She left the beauty industry and enrolled at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, where she became a licensed integrative health coach. Alex believes health and wellness begin with understanding and knowing who you are, being able to identify your needs, restoring rather than escaping, and overcoming the obstacles that stand in the way of achieving your goals. As a health coach, she helps clients detox their bodies, lives, and lifestyles. They learn self-discipline and accountability. She guides them in discovering sacred ways to eat, sleep and acquire healthy self-care practices that are bio-individual to their exclusive needs.

As a motivational speaker, he inspires youth groups, educational organizations, and corporations by sharing his belief in the power of perseverance, positivity, and hard work.
