Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Maria Anastasia, an Energetic Facelift Practitioner and Intuitive Energy Healer, based in London, United Kingdom.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I initially started as a PR & marketing consultant but slowly transitioned into energy healing and offering body energy processes such as Access Bars and Access Energetic Facelift.

Tell us about yourself

I have always known I am not cut out for a 9-5. However, the temptation of stability kept me in marketing and PR jobs. In the background, I was pursuing my passion for working with energy. Trained as a Theta Healer and Access Bars & Energetic Facelift Practitioner, I continued to work low-key with clients interested in change and seeking something different. My energy work has been deeply interlaced with the other part of the business, as I found myself consulting for various companies, such as those active in the blockchain and metaverse space. I have always been intuitive, always interested in the energetics behind things, how to work with this energy and how to transmute it to create greater possibilities.

As a classic, I had to hit rock bottom in my personal life in order to pursue this path and attend those courses that opened my intuitive centres even more. I mentioned that I am working with seekers of something different. People who are seeing there is so much more beyond what meets the eyes in the 3D world. There is so much that is unexplored, and I am here to support whoever is curious to find out what else is possible and how to expand from the limited viewpoints we've been taught to see and live reality.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I have been in business since 2011 and have worked with many companies and individuals who taught me so much about how interlaced our journeys on this planet are. I worked with clients who were able to build up the courage to institute that change needed in their lives and witnessed together their lives transformed. My biggest accomplishment is to see people succeed and start living from a place of ease rather than struggle and limitation.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Juggling business commitments and mum life can be a challenge sometimes. Knowing when to leave your responsibilities aside to be with your child is a muscle I am constantly working on.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. If you think it, it already exists in a different dimension. So believe that this is what you're meant to do, without any doubt. And when in doubt, remember what drives you.
  2. Be consistent. Look at the bigger picture and create your content from what change you are looking to institute in the world. Forget about strategies for a second. Just choose according to what drives you.
  3. Call on people who can help you grow before you get overwhelmed by having to do it all yourself. It takes a village to raise a child... Ask for help in your business too.

Is there anything else you'd like to share?

My soul mission here is to stimulate change and epiphanies in people's lives. Every aha moment creates a ripple effect in our world. Every smile creates more smiles; every fear creates more fear. So owning our energy and being aware of what we're putting out into the world is a responsibility not only to ourselves but to the entire humankind.
