Today, we’d like to introduce you to Mary Moretti. Mary was introduced to us by the brilliant and talented Pepz Javier.
Mary , thank you so much for joining us today. We’d love for you to bring our readers up to speed – can you introduce yourself and share your story?
Everything Started because I needed un outlet where I could feel powerful and confident! I experienced bullying since very young age! I was only 6 years old and the teacher told my mom I was a lost case. For some reason she decided I was not going to make it in life. After that everyone needed to make me feel small. Friends, teachers and I remember being so mad cause I knew they where wrong but some how I was to little to understand why they were acting like this what could I have possibly done to make them so mean to me. Later on because of this I developed panic attacks, I felt I had to fit in otherwise people where going to give me hell, dancing was the only place where my “ watch me now “ or “ who is better now “ attitude was showing up and it helped me understand I was so much more. So little by little I started to fight my insecurities and started listening the small voice in my head that said “ go for it “ “ you got this” !! I am gland I did because at the age of 20 years old Dance became my Full time job. Later on I moved to New York to keep studying and improving my skills, now I work as choreographers, dancer dancer teacher and open the door to Modeling which is sometimes I never thought about in the past.
Let’s talk about your work and career – what else should we know?
I am professional dancer / Choreographer / model. I work also as dance instructor, movement coach. For me dance is communication and is very important that people understand that in other to be an amazing performer you need to be open and vulnerable so you can connect with the audience. From movement to Facial expression and I think this is what set me apart from other : Performance. I love to tell story which allows me to be different old the time. I love to think about my work as in open canvas: I let the music define what the movement and my body wants to feel rather then stick with specific style. It’s important to training in the foundation HipHop , ballet, jazz etc etc. but then I feel you need to use what you have and create otherwise could be limiting. So what I can say what I love about my work if the mix from hard work and creativity.
Pepz Javier and Pep Talk with Pepz have been great to us and I know you’ve got a great relationship with them as well. Maybe you can tell our audience a bit about Pepz Javier and Pep Talk with Pepz and your experience with them.
I meet Pepz during pandemic when I was exploring digital marketing trying to figure it out new source of income. It turns out was not really interested about it but it led me to Pepz coaching boot camp! As I shared before I had experienced bullying as child and even tho I did let them after my life I knew that there where still some self sabotaging behavior due to past trauma. I knew I needed to get rid of it in order to scale my career to next level. I am very Grateful I started working with Pepz because he made me realize there reason what I was not getting much success is because I was not believing it enough, I was leaning towards what I thought was the true for me which actually where the results of what i experienced in the past. I went from not exposing my work because of fear of judgement to actually build my own business living the the bartender job to actually work full time in entertainment.
I discovered that have a goal setting system and a direction is not just about achieving results but it’s mostly about working with intention and clarity of knowing where you going! I am not afraid anymore to tel people who I am what I do. I do not base my worth depending on how many job I book. I don’t feel guilty anymore to ask to be paid for what I think I am worth. I set boundaries that people around me seams to respect more.
In 3 year with Pepz I changed so much,
I went from “ this is not me” “ what people will say “ “ maybe I’m not good enough “ to “is ok will do better next time” “I got this” “I was more then enough “ “ other people opinion don’t pay my bills” kind of attitude.
I am more confident, more empowered and even tho I know there is so much more to uncover now because Of Pepz I have the right tool to do so. I strongly recommend to work with him because of this.
