Julie Guerard  0:55  
Hi, Sonia.

Sonia Kyriacou  0:56  
How are you doing today?

Julie Guerard  0:58  
Really great. Thanks for having me here. It's an honor.

Sonia Kyriacou  1:02  
It's my pleasure. And I've been wanting for so long to do this podcast with you and life got in the way. So I'm really happy that the stars have aligned and today here we are...

Julie Guerard  1:12  
yes, in real life too! always great.

Sonia Kyriacou  1:15  
So I want to talk about so many things with you today. Firstly, the subject that is on my mind is dancing and how dancing has affected you. What has come out of you learning how to dance and becoming more of a fluent dancer, because I've seen you grow. In my classes alone, I've seen you change so much. And I know that it's impacted your life, but we'd like to hear more about it.

Julie Guerard  1:43  
Well, dance movement has been like a part of my life for a really long time as a kid, I wouldn't like doing  sports, I wouldn't like the sports classes. And the only thing that would resonate with me was dance so since I was a child, I would dance instead of doing volleyball or basketball, that type of stuff. And at some point in my adult life, I also was very much into Latin dances. And I remember going out at the time when I was like 17-18, to every places where they would play Latin music, I would be out every night dancing, salsa, bachata, merengue. And at some point, life kind of got in the way. And I got I became not to say snob, but something shifted, where I wouldn't want to go to those places anymore. And I would want to go to the higher end places where people are just like sitting pretty and like not really moving, not really dancing, but there would be like higher class, food and what not. Right? And I got disconnected from fun, I just disconnected from dancing. I would dance once in a while. But it wasn't a part of my life anymore. But recently, I would say maybe in the last two years dance really started being important again in my life. And it was a big, it played a big role in my reconnection to my body to my femininity to my heart. So it's been a really important part of my journey.

Sonia Kyriacou  3:32  
That is so interesting. Do you remember the moment that you said to yourself, I'm going to make dance part of my life again on a regular basis? What was it that that clicked? Or that that what made you pick up the phone or look at the website or whatever it was? To get back into it? What was the moment?

Julie Guerard  3:52  
Well, for San Tropez it was a friend actually my friend Alexandra who had experienced your classes before the pandemic, and she was like, oh, we should go and me I was always into Latin dances. But I had put this part of me aside. So when she asked me to come automatically, it was a full body. Yes, as I love to say that. It was like not even questioning, I was just all in. And the first time I came I remember it was like Park class. And then I realized that this studio was open and I was like what there's this entire world that I could be dancing and having fun all the time with with people and that I wasn't even aware of so automatically I started coming regularly. But besides that it was already being more a part of my life in terms of like ecstatic dancing and like intuitive dancing by myself at my place or with friends. Mais San Tropez definitely played a big role in being more consistent and evolving in this journey to as a dancer...

Sonia Kyriacou  5:03  
that's awesome. I like the way it's my pleasure. I love the way you threw in your French there you said "mais".

Julie Guerard  5:10  
Yeah, I don't know if everyone listening to the podcast is from Montreal, but we speak Frenglish 

Sonia Kyriacou  5:14  
We have Frenglish over here we throw in French words. So you know, you got to catch up, go to your Google Translate if you don't understand. But I love that about Montreal and I love that about you that you have this mix of everything. You know, when it comes even to your nationality? Can you tell me about your your background? Like where's your mom from? Where's your dad from?

Julie Guerard  5:35  
Pure quebecoise 100%, French Canadian, nothing exotic. But the thing is with me, I don't align necessarily with that culture. And my dad moved to Dominican full time now it's been seven years, but he's been going there for like 15 or something like that. So it's been 15 years that it's kind of like rubbing on me this Latin culture and this, it's, it's became part of my DNA, and my fabric, and it's like, I feel like I'm 1% Latina.

Sonia Kyriacou  6:13  
1% I love it. How often have you been to the Dominican?

Julie Guerard  6:17  
Many, many, many times to visit my dad... I don't know, maybe? Maybe 20 At least and then other countries like, yes, Spanish and the Latin culture and vibe and music plays a big role

Sonia Kyriacou  6:35  
You love the music, you love the culture,

Julie Guerard  6:38  
I resonate with the warmth, the friendliness of it, the you know, the fact that people are so open, open hearts, open Arms welcoming. And with the French Canadians, some of us are like this. But you know, in Montreal, it's very individualistic. Everyone is like, doing their own things. And yeah, I resonate with like the community vibes and the warmth between behind the Latin culture.

Sonia Kyriacou  7:09  
That's awesome. And what about you mentioned before that you also do you express yourself in different ways in dance, you said ecstatic dance? And can you explain like, like, what exactly is that? And how did you get into it?

Julie Guerard  7:24  
So ecstatic dance or intuitive dance, came into my life, when I'm not exactly sure, but it came into my life. Throughout my spiritual journey, and the deepening of my my awakening, and this journey, like a reconnection with my soul, as I was going to those events, or festivals and conscious festivals, they would serve like a cow, like ceremonial grade cacao, and it would really like open the heart. And then they would bring you into this journey with sound with music, I have goosebumps, just like thinking about it, this journey where the tempos would be like, slower and then go like super fast and super, like ecstatic and, and then go back to like softness, and sensuality. And we would go on these voyage, these journeys, through music through sound and, and sometimes it would be kind of guided a little bit by a teacher. But most of the time, you're just doing whatever the fuck you want, and just letting your body express itself without fear of judgment without judging yourself. Because oftentimes, in dance, we are the main people judging ourselves. And just like careless free in the body, connecting with the body, and just doing the movements that feel good instead of what looks good, which is completely the opposite of what we were used to when we take dance classes.

Sonia Kyriacou  9:10  
Structured classes. You said something very interesting right now, I think about the warm ups of our classes at the dance studio. And when we start doing movements that seem to most people as foreign or they might perceive it as strange or silly, they tend to hold back, they tend not to want to go there because they don't want to look silly. So somewhere along the lines, we were taught not to look foolish, or we were afraid of looking silly, because people might mock us or I don't know maybe won't be taken seriously like especially if you're coming from a business background. And that's something that I find a little unfortunate because one of the most magical things I feel that dance does for people and for myself, is it allows me to play like a child Yes. And to discover my inner child and not and just to let it out, you know, just to let it play and be just free, and not worry about do I look silly, you know, was this move on the music, you know, it kind of just liberates you. And I feel that that's unfortunate that we have come to this point where people are just so worried about it. So I love that about ecstatic dance. And I love the fact that you also said that the rhythm would bring you from slower to faster, which is very interesting, because that's kind of a natural, it changes rhythm, right? Just like just like life, just like our, our daily life. There's a rhythm change, and we go with it.

Julie Guerard  10:48  
Yeah, and through that, really, I feel like dance. You know, you mentioned that point of inner child reconnection. But, like, through an ecstatic dance journey, or through the different types of dances, or dance classes or styles, you can really embody not only the inner child, but the inner stripper, the inner goddess, all inner, all of it. And as a multi dimensional being. And we all are, you know, we're all multi dimensional, we don't have to fit in a box and be like, This is my type of dance. And this, no, we can play and dabble into many of them and just smash them all together. And depending on the mood that we're on, or which facet, which side of us we want to bring out and express and for it to shine, we can just express through dance all those inner emotions even and those inner archetypes that we have inside of us.

Sonia Kyriacou  11:51  
That is so true. And I think that that's something that we witness daily when we teach dance, or when we're on the observation side of it, because I have this opportunity to observe people. And you know, how they present themselves and how they feel in their state when they first start. And literally, sometimes even an hour later, the difference we see. And then imagine when it's weeks and months later, the person is literally not the same person, when they've dedicated themselves to dance and to this kind of, sometimes it may feel like a transformation. But maybe it's more of a rediscovery, maybe it's actually, you know, going backwards, not forward. You know, depending how you look at it. Sometimes people perceive dance as allowing them to transform or going from the caterpillar to the butterfly. But I think what you said is very profound. It's already in us. It's already there.

Julie Guerard  12:45  
Yeah. And it's really a question of like, unlocking it. And for a lot of people, it requires alcohol. And this, I noticed for a lot of people to let loose and be like, Okay, I'm gonna dance and be silly and do that type of stuff that we just spoke about. They need the liquid courage. But I realized, because it's been two years and a half since I stopped drinking, and I've never done more than that in my life. Like, I will be the first one while being the first one up dancing. And it's really just tapping into that and connecting to that, that rawness and just letting go of the barriers and the, the fears of judgment. And really, yeah, connecting to our essence.

Sonia Kyriacou  13:36  
I look forward to more of those moments with you, Julie.

Julie Guerard  13:42  
You're really empowering in your way. And when I talk about the heels class, I always talk about you highly in the sense that you make people comfortable, you allow a woman to really reconnect with their sexual energy with their, you know, with their, their inner goddess, or you know, their inner sexiness, which we really see them evolve throughout a class. And it's it's beautiful that we're able to tap into it and unleash and feel like the safe space that you created. And that you create over and over again. 

Sonia Kyriacou  14:16  
Thank you.

And to my listeners. Yes, I do heels. I don't just do Latin dance. I discovered that now through this interview with with Julie with this podcast. I found that heels also allowed me to bring out a side of me that I've had to suppress for so long, for different reasons, because I am an entrepreneur, and I'm in the Latin dance world, which is traditionally quite Macho. And so it's been a challenge for me to be a woman in this space and to allow myself to express freely as a sexual being. Either I would be misunderstood and The perception would be, oh, well, you know, she's available or she's interested in something which totally had nothing to do with it, it was just a self expression. Or I would then be dismissed as unprofessional. Or, you know, oh my God, how could she be like that and still be a business owner and, you know, be an influencer. So there's been all these, I have allowed those pressures to influence me and to kind of keep me from being who I am. So the heels is actually quite healing for me. Because I am kind of giving myself permission to be who I am. And through my students, I'm realizing, oh, my gosh, like we have so much more work to do, we have so much more to discover together as a group of women that are just allowing themselves to go back to their, their source, you know, we are women, and that is part of who we are. And it's it's beautiful to be able to express it and to feel safe and not to feel and not to judge ourselves, firstly, and not to worry about who's passing by the windows as we're dancing. Worried about you know, that they may look at us in a sexual manner. So, yes, I think it is cool. I think it's something we need to continue working on. There's a whole world of heels dancers now all over the world that are, it's becoming so popular. It's like the next salsa Bachata craze, let's call it, and I love it. I love seeing women and men express in that way. You've seen the popularity amongst men as well, wearing heels and expressing themselves in a feminine manner. And I, I, my jaw drops, it's like, Wow, it's beautiful, you know? How do you feel about that?

Julie Guerard  16:51  
I feel like it's beautiful to see that more and more people are stepping into that and allowing their, like their inner feminine to shine. And of course, men and woman, we all have this inner feminine and masculine energy inside. And oftentimes in this society, we get told to be in our masculine, because they don't say it like this actually realizes. But we're being told to do to always, you know, go take actions, and be structured, be organized. And it's great, because it allows us to have this support from the masculine that we all need in our lives in order to thrive in that modern society. But the emotional side, the the body side, and the just being this has been suppressed. It's not something that has been praised in our society, it's like leave the emotions aside and just be in your masculine and do do do go go go no time for emotions, right. So I find it beautiful, because although it may look like it's just dance, it's way more than that. And it allows people to reconnect with their feminine energy, and we need more feminine energy in the world. to rebalance with everything that's that's happening to find a beautiful, harmonious equilibrium. Because people I've been too much and the other, the other side of the spectrum.

Sonia Kyriacou  18:23  
Yeah. And I think that might be misunderstood at this time by a lot of the society believes when we say divine feminine, I think they think we're saying everybody should be feminine. And that masculine is no bueno. I think there's a misunderstanding of what that actually means. Yeah, what we're actually saying is, let's balance it. Right. So sometimes it could be misperceived, you know, like as, as we're trying to extinguish masculinity. That's not the point. 

Julie Guerard  18:52  
No it's not the point. And the masculine and a healthy divine masculine is beautiful. And there's toxicity in both there's toxic masculine, there's toxic feminine, but of course, just like bringing back this equilibrium, yes, on the planet, and as woman I think we shouldn't be afraid of, of being afraid of stepping into a feminine essence, because most of us and there are exceptions, but most of us originally have a feminine essence. So it's okay to be a bit more feminine than men. You know, it's okay to be a bit more emotional to be a bit, and we shouldn't try to suppress that. But no, the masculine is beautiful, and we need both and we're complimentary for one another. And that's how we thrive and we just, yeah, we just need everyone to have a proper inner union of the divine masculine and feminine. And dance can be a great way for men and women to do that.

Sonia Kyriacou  19:56  
So this podcast truly is about choreographing your life. And the reference I'm making is, you know, dance has its structured and unstructured side, as we just discussed. And what I'm wondering is, you know, you've told us how its effect how dance has impacted your life, how it's allowed you to reconnect with yourself, has dance had any influence in your choice of becoming an entrepreneur. I'd like you to talk to us about Pureprep and how it how it started, what led you to that? And, you know, Where where are you with your company right now.

Julie Guerard  20:37  
So it's not dance, but it's movement that led into Pureprep, because I was a personal trainer. At the time, that was like my main movement. I was a bit disconnected from the feminine, so it was more like, masculine way of doing it through workouts, and at some point, like I went and dabbled into the corporate world, I was still a full time university student. And once I quit my job in the corporate, I didn't want to go back to work for someone else. So I started advertising my personal training services again. And people were asking, I do offer meal prep, do you offer meal plans, and I was like, I barely have time to cook for myself, you know. But something inside of me was just like, do it anyways, and I barely knew how to cook. I did this from my own kitchen, I was just started cooking for people didn't have a name didn't have a website, like everything started backwards. And then the vision grew into what it is now four years later.

Sonia Kyriacou  21:45  
So Pureprep is becoming quite famous. I've noticed your social media presence has skyrocketed. Personally, I've tried not everything but a lot of your creations. And they're absolutely delicious. I always get them Monday nights after my heels class. And I feel like after going through that one hour, where we all just kind of reconnected with ourselves and we feel amazing. I then have your high vibrational salad. And I just feel like on top of the world, what an amazing way to start my week, by the way, it's a Monday. And so I do feel that when I'm eating it, I don't know if it's me imagining this or it's actually true. But I sense that there's like love in those dishes. I feel like there's so fresh, there's so well made, everything is placed so beautifully. It's not just food, it's art, you know, even though you're doing home delivery, you still take the time to choose like a beautiful shaped bowl, and how everything is placed is so beautiful. And I don't know, like, Where does this come from? Is this is this natural? Is this like, talk to me about that.

Julie Guerard  22:58  
The intentionality is really important in every aspect of my life. And of course, creating something has to be intentional. So every creations we do, we put a lot of love and intentionality into it. Not only love but really the intention for people to eat it, and to be like nourished, you know, and for them to be like healing on a cellular level. And I know that time based food has the ability to do that for people. And it all starts with the intention because someone could be eating salad all day every day, and still have health issues and be unhealthy and not understand but I'm eating salad all day in smoothies. But at the end of the day, you have to eat intuitively what feels good, you have to listen to your body. And that's really what we prone and you have to eat with intention. And so at least we do one part we cook when attention and then if you don't have time to do everything yourself, right? But really, it could be healthy food quote unquote, but when the intention is not there, you're not going to get the same results for everything. So yes, it's a big part of the food for sure.

Sonia Kyriacou  24:17  
You make me think about energy transfer. Yeah, and how now I believe more and more people are waking up to the fact that we are energetic beings and literally what we think and feel transfers Yeah, so if at the core Pureprep is with you know intention of love health, well being and connection, then I was right. I feel that when I eat your salad, like for real like I'm not joking. So I think what you just said is very precious you you could be you know, doing everything that you feel is is going to work for you to become a healthy person. But at the end you're like No, I don't know there's still something missing because energetically, it's so much more powerful, like we have so much more we can heal or accomplish when we're working through our energy than when we're just working through, you know, I don't know the logistics of creating food for people and making money from it, you know what I mean?

Julie Guerard  25:16  
It makes a big difference. And so many people are feeling shame or guilt when they eat, or when they do anything. But these emotions are not what's going to get you the results, the energy level that you're looking for the body that you're looking for that optimal health that you're looking for. So really, the emotions that we carry behind the actions that we take, like, like eating, like working out, like dancing, it makes a big difference. Yeah,

Sonia Kyriacou  25:49  
I saw someone, so I'm on Tik Tok quite, quite a bit. And there was someone that was saying something that I felt was very interesting. And I unfortunately, cannot remember the name of the Creator. But he said, If you are, are feeling good, if you're healthy, if you're happy inside, if your emotions are positive, if you know you are aligned, connected, you could eat something that is toxic, and not be affected by it. Yeah. And I thought about that. And I said, you know, it's actually crazy true, because I remember times in my life, when I was really, quote, unquote, happy. I could eat junk. And it felt like it just went through me it did not have any negative effect. But then other times in my life where I was either down or depressed or feeling some kind of negative emotion. If I would consume food that was toxic, it actually had like a 10x negative effect on my body. So it's crazy how we can take something like you said, you could be eating healthy, but it's not working. Or you could be eating junk, and it actually doesn't hurt you. Right? Isn't that Yeah, isn't that special,

Julie Guerard  27:05  
and I don't prone junk, because all I eat is pure. But once in a while, like once a week, or once every two weeks, I'll have junk quote unquote, which for me, is let's say refined sugar, gluten or hydrogenated oils, because I still stick to mostly plant based food. But I'll have a little bit of this. And before I would eat gluten and be like, Oh, I'm going to feel so bloated, after I'm going to have a brain fog, I'm going to have, you know, we say like, I'm going to crash after this, you know, and it will happen. And once I stopped saying that, and this so I'm not saying do this every day and eat McDonald's every day and set your intention and you're going to be fine. Because at the end of the day, we still have a physical body, we're still human in this 3d reality. But if once in a while you treat yourself and enjoy it and know that it's good for your soul and encode this food and with with your intentions of like, this is pleasurable. This is fun. This is good for my soul. This is nourishing on a different level, you know, and you won't feel bloated, you won't feel disgusting the day after. And so totally

 The power of our words, thoughts, it's, it's, it's, I love it. 

Well, your words are spells like spelling. So literally, everything you say, is as if you're casting his spell. And the more aligned you become with yourself in your soul, the more these will manifest into your life instantly. So of course, you need to be careful with the words you say out loud, and in your head as well.

Sonia Kyriacou  28:49  
Absolutely. And that kind of also makes me think now to back to when people in our lives, especially as young children would say things, sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. That would affect us so deeply. And you know, sometimes even today, I hear those comments or those voices in my head that come crashing in when I'm either about to face something that is a little fearful for me or I you know, I'm lacking confidence in something. And I hear those voices, they come back and they haunt me and they kind of try to discourage me, you know, from doing something or saying something. And so because I'm so aware of it now I say to myself, hold on, Where's that coming from? Let's let's deal with it. Okay, so don't let it like remove this opportunity from you. Let's let's handle it. Let's work through it. So hear the voice understand where it's coming from transmute it. Let's make it work for me. Now. How am I going to use that and make it work for me in a positive manner, but it requires a certain level of consciousness to do this and I do believe that if you are full of toxic food and toxic people and toxic environments and everything is toxic your your body, both energetic and physical is going to suffer, you won't be able to help yourself as much as you can, if you're choosing wisely.

Julie Guerard  30:14  
Well, yeah, definitely because the food has an effect and the way they poison people through food, literally, I'm not even joking, a lot of food is not even food anymore. It's a mix of chemicals that is made for people to be to stay asleep for their pineal gland to be calcified. And really, when your pineal gland is calcified, your intuition is clouded. And so you become disconnected. So earlier, we spoke about intuitive eating. If you just have all those chemicals, blocking your intuition, you won't be able to make the right decisions. So of course, food plays a big role in this journey. And yeah, this, it's beautiful that you're able to do that. Because as a kid, we are so programmed not only through the food, and through the words that we're hearing, and our parents just did what they knew was best for us. And, you know, all we can do is send love to them, and to that inner child that was wounded. And now as conscious beings, we know, what is our truth and what is not. And one thing I love to ask myself is, am I acting out of love or out of fear, and I might acting from that wounded child or my ego, or from my authentic highest self, we get to choose every instant of the day,

Sonia Kyriacou  31:45  
that's a great, great way to put it. I love that. Let's make those good choices, guys. So let's let's talk about what you see for your future. In the sense that, you know, you know that you want to, I'm assuming you know that you want to continue doing Pureprep and developing Pureprep. But what's on the horizon for you, as a person as a dancer, as a human being? 

Julie Guerard  32:14  
Yeah, more. A more of Purely Julie, and a little less of Pureprep in my day to day. So how I see it go is, as of before the end of 2022, I would love to be 50/50 between the two because I'm really passionate about both. And there are ways that I can grow Pureprep, and that I'm good at. And there's some other things that I can delegate. And I'm really good at that. And I don't have a problem with that. And so that I can really focus on what I'm good at. And that I love to do. And because I believe as entrepreneurs that's why we're entrepreneurs to do what we love. And the other part that I love so much is the mentorship is hosting events, hosting retreats, guiding, especially woman into this reconnection to their femininity to their bodies to their hearts. And that is done like through embodiment practices, meditation movement, as well. So definitely, this is where I see myself evolving. In the future,

Sonia Kyriacou  33:33  
I had the opportunity to watch Julie, run a, let's call it meditation slash relaxation. At the end of one of our Diva Days recently, we organized this day for women, with dance with food with fun with laughter with connection with talk with socializing. And Julie was our coach at the end of the day to kind of help us kind of put a bow on it on this beautiful moment that we share with all the ladies. And I saw you in action and I literally saw different you that I had never seen before. I knew that was in you but then watching you actually do it. I'm like, wow, she's like, connected to something. You were almost in a flow in a zone in a I don't want to call it like a character theater, but you were just so it was a new angle of you that I hadn't seen. So how do you get there? How do you connect like that? And how do you transfer that to other people?

Julie Guerard  34:42  
Yeah, well, the reason why he saw that it wasn't me. It's because it's not me like it's my soul. It's literally just God speaking through me when I do those things, so it's not like my rational mind or my ego is like, Okay, what am I going to say? Like, of course, there's like some, a little bit of structure behind it, again, the masculine energy that we always need. But mostly, it's really just feeling the energy of the group, feeling the energy of the moment. And tapping into that, that collective energy on like, all levels, and just speaking from my heart really dropping into my heart. So it doesn't come from the mind and like, what am I going to say?

Sonia Kyriacou  35:39  
It's not contrived. It's not a script.

No, it's really about the present moment, and what's needed in that present moment for these woman for it to be like the most beneficial for all. So you're not wrong when you say that it's, it's tapping into another, and other aspects for sure. It's not my human self,

Sonia Kyriacou  36:07  
that it's beautiful. And everybody should experience it. When is your next retreat? What's your plan for that?

Julie Guerard  36:13  
So I'm really excited to start doing in person events again. And the last few months, I've been dabbling a bit into online programs and offering like one on one mentorship, support to very few women to help them on their business, honestly, in a spiritual way, but further businesses as well. And now now that spring is coming here in Montreal, I just feel called to do more in person. And my next one will be on should be on April 16 is not out yet launched into the world. But I'm working on just like an afternoon event for a woman for spring. And I just I have this beautiful vision that is going to come to fruition. 

Sonia Kyriacou  37:07  
That sounds exciting. I believe that's Easter weekend?

Julie Guerard  37:11  
En plus, on top of it. Yeah.

Sonia Kyriacou  37:13  
So what would be cool is for all the listeners out there, if you want to get in touch with Julie, we're going to be putting her social handles in the podcast description. So you'll be able to check her out and see everything about pure Julie her treats her food via Pureprep. And you will discover this multi dimensional woman that I have the honor of having as a friend and a student. And I think your plans sound amazing. I think what I hear when I hear you speak about the future, is it sounds like your plans. But simultaneously, it sounds like everybody's plans like all women can take advantage of this...

Julie Guerard  37:57  
community...community for me is really, really, really important. And every morning, I asked and I set my intentions to be of service not only to myself, but to God and to my community and to humanity. So this is so much bigger than myself. And I'm really doing this from my heart as a service, and I see the potential in this part of my business quote unquote, but it's much bigger than just a business. It's it's really coming from a pure space. 

Sonia Kyriacou  38:03  
And so cute! Yeah, pure Julie, Pureprep and pure space!

Julie Guerard  38:40  
Purity, behind things I find is so important. Yeah,

Sonia Kyriacou  38:46  
It is. And I look forward to all of that. We're so we're so gonna have an amazing 2022

Julie Guerard  38:54  
And I know collaborations this year for us, to help women connect to the inner, their inner fire and their inner hoe. I mean, it's just like an archetype that we suppress so much and that we all have inside. And we need to unleash once in a while. So I see something I have a vision and I know that we will collaborate in the near future. So stay tuned.

Sonia Kyriacou  39:24
