We had the good fortune of connecting with Anabell Villanueva and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Anabell, how has your perspective on work-life balance evolved over time?
Balance is one of the topics that I have studied the most as a result of my specialization in balance of feminine and masculine energy in order to live a life with success and fulfillment. Balance is something that definitely becomes a relevant issue throughout life, when the responsibilities and demands of adulthood begin to increase. As a woman, there are major concerns to balance life and your multiple roles; wife, worker, head of household, mother, sister, friend, etc. The woman always wants to give 120% of her in everything she does and when she increases the responsibilities and roles that she has, you realize that this expectation that you have of yourself is unattainable. Now, I see life as 100% and each part of my roles has a percentage of it. The time and energy that I decide to dedicate to each thing that matters to me is limited because there are only 24 hours in the day and only one Anabell. For example, let’s say work occupies 30% of that 100% of your time and energy When you are intentional with this limits you will dedicate all your attention to that task, even if it is a short time, it is enough to give your best and obtain good results. This is how I see life and balance, like a box of chocolates where each one has its function (flavor), moment (color) and space (shape) where I offer my maximum potential.
Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I am dedicated to coaching professional women, specially Latinas in the US, to go from insecurity to confidence and self-assurance. I normally work with clients who feel imprisoned and limited and are ready to free their full potential.
What separates me from others is my professional and personal experience. To become a teacher you need to be a student. I spent 4 years practicing self awareness to transform my life and now I facilitate my method to hundred of clients. Furthermore, I have created a simple and practical self-awareness system that will be published this year in the US Market.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I like to take people to know the face of Miami that goes beyond shopping, I am a person who appreciates experiences more than material things and that is why I make the most of what nature offers in this city. I would start the day by having breakfast at 7tyone in Miami Beach and then I would visit the Vizcaya museum, later have lunch in Coral Gables, and finally walk along the pier at sunset.
The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
You never get to where you are alone. As spiritual beings we are interconnected with each human being who touches our lives. I am grateful to everyone who has come into my life, either as a teacher or as an ally.
