Today we’d like to introduce you to Breanna Smith.
Hi Breanna, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My journey to the wild, wise, and intuitive woman that I am today started when I first moved to Dallas in 2006. I was a 21-year-old girl from a small country town in Michigan. My journey was rocky I used alcohol to get numb, and I partied Monday to Sunday. When I was 22, I met my husband then, who acted as a mirror, allowing me to see myself in a new light. I abandoned the late nights and the extensive alcohol and started studying myself, my story, and started seeing how reactive I was instead of responsive.
In 2012, as I began doing community work, I met a woman named Foi who was a yoga teacher. I remember watching her with reverence. She was patient, gentle, and full of grace. I knew whatever she had; I wanted. I remember eagerly asking her, “what do you do? “she laughed and replied, what do you mean, sis? And all I could say was your just so calm. That’s when she invited me to my first yoga class, and from there, I was hooked. I went to a gym in Richardson Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday mornings at 6 am for the next year. With every posture I explored parts of myself that I thought were dead, I reconnected with my intuition and dove into the body-mind connection. This was the beginning of the exploration to get closer to the most authentic version of me I had not yet experienced. That was the beginning of my walking in the cave of self to be reborn.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
The road to becoming has been full of obstacles and struggles that have allowed me to cultivate a deeper relationship of trust with me. With every problem comes an attached lesson. Trust in me was something that I didn’t have the privilege of acquiring in my youth, and of course, this followed me into adulthood. I found myself second-guessing my choices, my thought and myself constantly. It wasn’t until I got into my early thirties that I really started to develop what some call intuition, but what I like to call my own knowing. Sitting in silence has been one of my greatest teachers for combating that. In silence, I can tap into the deep sense of knowing within. Reminding myself that there truly is no right or wrong way to do anything, just the way I choose in that moment to move.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Planting seeds with bre is a community to empower women to step more fully into their truth, to learn to cultivate their intuition and to start to live with the purpose to be free, not good. What I am most proud of is the creation of my podcast, Ceremony Devotion in Action. The creation of this podcast allowed me to be a vessel of the divine and to introduce some amazing humans to my community and the world as a whole. I am currently in the process of expanding my services to include one-on-one work to further assist women in birthing the highest version of themselves with the tools of breathwork, movement, and a variety of healing techniques. I believe that healing is our birthright and recreation is the tool. In this new way of living, I believe that women are being asked to step to the forefront with their talents, gifts and ideas to create a more balanced world. One where healing is no longer an option but a priority, my offering is to help bring that out of those that may be at a crossroads of change.
What were you like growing up?
Growing up, I was somewhat of a quiet and very sensitive child; I loved to read and stayed lost in fantasy novels the hobbit was one of my favorite series and I must have read it a hundred times over. I developed a love for poetry at an early age and keep notebooks hidden under my bed, filled with my writings. I grew up in a small town surrounded by my relatives, one lived right next door and the other lived a few houses away so the family was a large part of my life. My summers included softball tournaments followed by trips to the local Dairy Queen, basketball games and events on snowy Saturday’s in our middle school gym and traveling track meets in the summer league.
