Strive For It is a Coaching and Mastermind company. Retreat Host, Womens Cirlce, Yin Yoga & Somatic Teacher run by Gill Carroll

A mastermind is where a group of like minded individuals meet to support, encourage and motivate each other as entrepreneurs. The mastermind will be based on the principals of Mr Hill’s Think and Grow Rich, this mastermind will help you to become a more dynamic and forward thinking business person. Business isn’t about just business anymore, we need to look at it in a different way. It’s about your business, your personal life, making a good family life, about building solid personal and business relationships and about smashing goals in all aspects of your life. Life is a journey, lets try and set a standard for the life that you deserve together.

From Business Mastery with Tony in Miami to Butterfly pose in Mallorca and a few trips in between myself and Debbie have each others backs

So I was delighted to join Debbie on her Beauty Business Mastery Podcast last week and shoot the breeze about being in business.

If you’re in a service/ people heavy related business you will know how important it is to have people around you who understand your business.

Someone who you can ask questions with no judgement, bounce ideas, share business proposals , crunch numbers or simple share the load on a Tuesday afternoon when the overwhelm kicks in or 11pm at night when your up against it

This is the friendship myself and Debbie have built up over the last 10 years since we meet on a train track in Peru hiking to Machu Picu.
We have climbed many mountains since then and faced many business hardships and triumphs together.

Always at the end of phone for the good days and bad days.

It’s important to be around like minded people when your self employed, as you have no boss to say things like :
Hey girl …
You look overworked… want to share the load?
Have you had a day off lately?
Did you get your pension sorted?
Have you up-skilled lately?
What was your GP last month?
You need to do some investing ?
Did you hear about the new government change?
Did you know about the latest grant?
Il send you an email it will help you…

These are the kinda things myself and Debbie talk to each other about. Our own private mini mastermind.
Bring on a mastermind is priceless for your well being and business.

Hope you enjoy our podcasts and get some nuggets of wisdom I really enjoyed chatting with Debbie who I admire so much, she has grown as business owner in so many ways and she is both successful in work and out of work now, it’s a joy to see her evolve and grow and learn

Shake The Dust ✨✨

I’ve a few places for this class available now after my regular ladies got first dibs.
This is a pilot class called “Open to Grace”

Grab a free spot using the link in my bio

I will be rolling out classes in Sept/ Oct / Nov and Dec so plenty of time to Shake the Dust with me ✨✨

WHAT IS SHAKE THE DUST ⤵️

✨ Shake the Dust is more than just a workout- it’s a transformative, embodied practice of the body, heart, and mind, and a form of activism through movement. Each session invites you to shake off what no longer serves, personally and collectively, and to reclaim your body as a powerful tool for change.

Guided by a poetic theme and an epic playlist, we move together through waves of shaking, jumping, resting, dancing, intuitive flow, plus elements of yoga, Pilates, somatics, and bodyweight strength work.

This is a space where movement becomes a statement, where you can sweat, release, and build a resilient body while also grounding into the values and vision for a better world.

This is a practice for ALL. Whether you’re a yogi, a seeker, or simply ready to move with purpose, Shake the Dust is your invitation to take up space, break patterns, and come alive.

Your Authenticity is someone else’s
Medicine always reminding myself of that

Really digging deep to be the most authentic genuine version of myself always

I couldn’t figure out what was off with me, a few reiki healers over the years told me my throat chakra was weak - I laughed them off sure I never stop talking !
But talking and speaking your truth are very different…… 💙🗣️

My root Chakra has always been weak, I blame my career for this , working in hospitality caused me for years to live in fight or flight and still does from time to time, it’s a constant battle but I’ve ways to handle it now ❤️⚖️

Do you ever feel like things are off ? As if something in your life isn’t quite right but you can’t put your finger on it to say what exactly it is ?

If your like me you might seek outside sources to fix this feeling , a massage, a gym class, book a holiday …. But it is still there niggling away when you get back that feeling

So what if I suggested we go inward … taking some time to identity where things may be out of balance

Learning about your Chakras like I did can really help bring a sense of balance to the panic, saddness, dread or dull ache you can’t explain

You can foster a greater understanding of yourself and your needs and of course learn some tools to help keep the balance long term

Join me Sunday to find your power again, as we discover the Wheel of Light followed by a total body Chakra balancing Yin Yoga Class

Listen to your body even if you don’t like the news

This past year I’ve really been drawn away from the sea. I’ve been sea swimming all year round in the wild Atlantic way for almost 15 years but this last year I didn’t fall out of love with it but life kinda pushed me a different way and I didn’t fight it

My gym is in Oranmore so post gym swims were too hard, I had a constant painful ear infection that couldn’t heal cause my ears were always wet and I got too dam cosy and warm doing yoga more often at home and my body whispered don’t do it girl

So just went along with it showing up every now and then and a few weeks ago I got the call go back dive in girl and so I did.

A lovely swim tonight to the 2nd bouy with these legends Yvonne & Danielle who didn’t kick me out of the swim group!!
Well done to who tonight finished her galway Bay swim challenge of 13 k for August it was lovely to be there for her last few meters 💙💙🏊🏻‍♀️🏊🏻‍♀️
Swim buddies are the best buddies if you know you know 💙

Dreamy summer morning by the lake after a little summer gathering with my Mom & her best friends last night ✨

August is a wonderful month to sit back and take stock , all you have achieved, all the good things and bad things that happened, looking at how your dreams unfolded before your eyes

Lunasa a time to give thanks and remeber you don’t reap what you sow the day you sow!

Really feeling this line after a whirlwind year of yoga and teaching 1 year on life is so full of goodness in ways i only dreamed of

September for me is like New Years for many , when kids go back to school it always bring fresh energy and momentum

But for now it’s reflection, it’s chilling, it’s being grateful, it’s resting, not forcing life 🤍

Happy Friday ❤️

Join me for a delicious somatic yin yoga class on Tuesday 19th August at 7pm 56 Central

A Somatic flow will guide you through the process of allowing your body to feel safe
A gentle swish, sway, shake and flow for your nervous system 🌀

A Yin Yoga flow will bring the heavy stillness the body craves so badly, a rest in movement practice. 🌀

We will heal, we will release , we will nourish ourselves and we will leave feeling calm ✨

Never did I think I’d be hosting a retreat in Scotland with Amy - or that it would sell out in 24 hours 😲

Beyond buzzing to go back to Scotland were I spend so much time in my 20s running the Orchard Bar and working in the Avoca Bar they were great times with really great people who I still adore.

This retreat is a serious blend of what me and Amy love! Amy has built a phenomenal community of women who are already in a powerful somatic flow - these women are the Cailleach of Dalgety Bay : wise and powerful so honour the Cailleach for a day in November can only bring some magic!!

Feeling very “pinch myself” today that a year after I started this journey I am here 🤍🤍🤍

I remember this song so well
Back in Taylor’s Hill primary school

“You’ve gotta have a dream if you don’t have a dream how you gonna make a dream come true” ✨✨

I was probably only 10 blasting it out in the classroom but here I am at 46 still dreaming

I’ve big goals and dreams for the next year so today I took some time to try make them more of a reality- fail to prepare … prepare to fail… a dream with out a plan …. A plan with a goal… a goal without a plan … bla bla we all know how it goes!!

More on this later …. But you get the picture🤍

Maybe it’s a sign for you to write your dreams out on paper too ✨✨
