about me
hi, I'm Giulia
I'm a yoga teacher, writer and mentor for conscious entrepreneurs.
Here's my story.
By age 30, I had lived in Milan, Los Angeles, New York and London and had a thriving fashion career. By age 33, I was also on burnout number three.
Despite being considered successful, I was so disconnected from myself that I could not read the signs of my own discomfort until they quite literally hit me in the face. Although I kept pushing myself to do more, my body couldn't cope.
After experiencing my third burnout – and very first depression – in the summer of 2022, I was forced to pause and look within. The triggers were all there: grief from a profound heartbreak, a draining job, a difficult move home after 15 years abroad, physical exhaustion, and an amount of stress I couldn't handle.
For the first time, I really asked myself what I needed. And the simple answer was: something else. I slowly began to understand that the values I always thought defined "success" weren't aligned with who I was. I no longer glamorized overworking, perfectionism, sleep deprivation, the idea of "doing it all" and putting up a façade. None of it worked anymore.
All that was left was to rebuild.
I spent a year and a half breaking open, and looking for answers through traditional therapy, inner child work, conscious relationships, attachment theory, nervous system work, somatic experiencing, meditation, breathwork, yoga, and the science of Ayurveda.
Unlearning is a labour of love, grown from a seed planted in October 2022. By bringing together the people that inspired me in my journey and helped me come back to my true self, and to the values that I now hold dear, I hope to empower you on your own journey of self-discovery.
Every week, we'll be discussing the nuanced issues of identity, self-worth, family dynamics, neuropsychology, career, sex, relationships, conscious business, sacred feminine and sacred masculine energies, astrology, human design, and much more.
I hope my podcast, yoga practices and energy work will help you on your own healing path and inspire you to unlearn and relearn for yourselves.
Much love,
Giulia x
