Sometimes you need to Step Away to find Your Real Passion, Sylvia Plester-Silk, RSW

Tell us a little something about your business...
While on an intensive 5-day hike through the mountains to Machu Pichu, I learned core life lessons that brought me back to my roots as a Social Worker and Energy Therapist. Having spent the last decade consulting with Business Owners and Executive Directors around team dynamics and having good success, it was time to shift into a level of even deeper brilliance in my work.
This trip was life-altering and guided me back to my soul’s work as a Social Worker. Since March 2020, when I received my Registered Social Worker designation (again) and built a business during the pandemic, I have found it to be incredibly fulfilling.
Having learned many lessons about how to run a business, it has allowed me to be an even more successful Therapist.
When was your lightbulb moment?
When the universe guided me back to my work during my trek to Machu Pichu and in the two weeks post-trip – the messages I received from my guides, and intuition, brought me to a place of deep understanding, passion and fulfillment!
What are your three words of advice?
Listen to Your Intuition.
Had I ignored my intuition, I would still be striving to do work that didn’t fill my soul. By allowing myself to deeply be with myself, to truly listen to myself and my intuition – and accept guidance from outside, I found my true passion!
