She has an energy that gets you excited about life, the future and basically everything she talks about! Thaila’s favourite quote is “One day your life will flash before your eyes. You never know when but before it does, you better make it worth watching!”

She retired from a successful career in corporate management where she worked with such Fortune 500 Companies such as Apple, Coca Cola and Dr Pepper to pursue her passion of helping others.
Her wakeup call during her senior year of high school drew her to a lifestyle that called for a simpler approach – simpler food and a simpler way of life. In 2008, Christiana attended school in San Francisco for holistic nutrition.
It was there that she dove deeply into learning about holistic health and wellness. As she reached her 30s, she began to become more and more interested in remote work, and online business programs which motivated her to make the leap to try her hand at remote operations work for various entrepreneurs conducting high ticket online programs.
She took on the role of operations manager but was soon promoted to single-handedly build one company’s client management department from the ground up.
Working with this amazing network of entrepreneurs is what led her to meet Ryan Rockwell and becoming an Accountability Coach at Grow Yoga Biz. It’s at GYB that she’s able to combine her health & wellness background with her entrepreneurial high ticket online program experience.
Whether leading groups who are beginning their business journey or those scaling and leveraging teams and systems, she knows the most important keys to your success are your perspective and your community, and she’s really excited to be part of this one.
Fascinated by a very young age by gadgets and technology, Rick loves tinkering with and finding a solution to tech-related problems. He also holds a masters degree in Anthropology and a Masters in Public Health, both from Michigan State University.
Someday he might grow up and become an adult, but just as in a yoga class, I wouldn’t hold your breath on that one.
Six years in she decided she wanted to work with more small businesses and so she started a small digital advertising agency, VII Digital.
Their focus is on helping small businesses achieve profitability and scale their Facebook and Instagram advertising efforts. Her team’s value to students is their depth of digital advertising knowledge, propensity to test aggressively and their continued curiosity and exploration into new strategies/tactics to make their clients and students campaigns successful.
She has been a huge advocate of health and wellness since her teens when anxiety and depression reared its ugly head.
Through meditation and yoga, she’s been able to not just manage those issues but stop them from holding her back to living the absolute best life she can.
She’s an intuitive person, and she truly believes that your life and your business must be authentic and honest for it to be indeed and transformational and bring that integrity into every breakthrough session to ensure success!
As a Breakthrough Coach, she has the honour of welcoming new students into our Mastermind Coaching Program.
She gets to connect with inspirational yogis and spiritual healers from all over the world and talk about their vision as a teacher and entrepreneur.
What she loves most about her role is that she gets to witness the moment our students courageously step into their power, follow their calling, and take the leap towards launching a thriving online business.
Since joining GYB, she has been able to come back to what she loves, helping people break through their fears & see their own potential, reaching freedom in their lives that they never thought possible. Freedom & transformation, that’s what it is all about.
