097 It's YOUR Time to Live With Purpose - From MUA to Meditation Teacher, Natalie Matias Shares Her VISIONARY Journey

Life is good.

You’ve got a dream job as the Lead Makeup Artist on one of Canada’s Top Talk Shows…they love you and respect your work and the culture is awesome.

Yet, you’ve got this little yearning inside of you that keeps whispering… “life is short….  you’re meant to be doing something else”

This is the story of Natalie Matias.

Recognized as one of Toronto’s most sought-after beauty professionals, Natalie Matias' experience spans 17 years across multiple platforms.

Her incredible talent has earned her the position of Key MUA for numerous national lifestyle programs including The Social and ETalk’s Oscar Red Carpet Special.

Over the course of her extensive career, Matias has worked alongside a long list of celebrities (The Weeknd, Jason Derulo) thought leaders (Arianna Huffington, Liz Gilbert) and social influencers (Lauren Toyota).

For the past while, Natalie has been challenging the ever evolving concept of "beauty” and she’s been honing her craft as a wellness expert.

Natalie co-founded and has led an intimate local meditation group for women entrepreneurs and creatives, the Peace Warriors, since 2014.

It is a path that started in her youth with the loss of both parents to dis-ease and disconnects to a healthy work/life balance. These life-altering experiences are what have inspired Natalie to have a passion to spread mindfulness and meditation.

Her warm and inviting presence has allowed her to introduce meditation to work offices, while her one-on-one meditation coaching style allows clients to find achievement in areas that may have otherwise been considered unachievable.

The combination of Matias’ MUA talents and focus on the growth of inner beauty through meditation creates her unmatchable ability to offer a full range of creative offerings for any type of event hoping to communicate purpose and wellness.

You can find Natalie busy leading mindfulness-based workshops for Mindfulness Without Borders; to entrepreneurs, professionals and CEOs in workplaces such as We Work and Deloitte.

Natalie is known for her soothing voice and grounding presence that makes her a suitable fit for any environment. Natalie is filled with immense gratitude for every opportunity to share space and time in meditation.

I’ll definitely attest to her voice being soothing.

I’m obsessed with listening to her speak, which is why I’m having so much fun curating the content for this episode! I love listening to it over & over!

If Natalie’s name sounds familiar, it might be because she’s offered some beautiful opportunities for my VISIONARY community to get to know her.

On Valentines Day, she led my past and current clients through a guided meditation for entrepreneurs - and last week she and I did a collaborative Instagram Live so that you could get EXCITED for our episode!

IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK ABOUT:

The phone call that made her leave her job & follow her true calling

Balancing the need for security, while taking care of your health, your energy & your spirit

Why she decided to leave her full time job as the lead makeup artist for The Social

Overcoming fear when you quit a FT job

The roller coaster ride that IS starting a business

Why failure is wisdom

Why it’s great to ask someone “what they’re most excited about right now”

Her deeper WHY for starting her business

& MORE!
