“I Love You, But I Love Myself More,” Coach Maria Camargo On The Value Of Choosing Yourself
For those who have ever felt the weight of putting others’ needs before their own, Maria Camargo’s journey from self-neglect to self-love serves as a testament to the transformative power of choosing oneself.
Every morning, before the hustle and bustle begins, Maria Camargo starts her day with a routine of gratitude. For her, it’s more than just a series of actions, but a powerful practice that lays the foundation for positivity and mindfulness throughout the day. Rooted in the belief that gratitude is the cornerstone of a happy and fulfilling life, Camargo’s morning ritual serves as a gentle reminder to appreciate what we currently have.
But Camargo’s journey towards self-empowerment and inner peace has been marked by twists and turns. Raised in an environment where self-care was often overlooked, she experienced many years neglecting her own needs while tending to the demands of others. It was a path fraught with challenges and sacrifices, but one that ultimately led her to a deeper understanding of the importance of prioritizing her own well-being.
Today, Camargo is the CEO and Founder of SummaWork, a beacon of hope for those seeking to unlock their full potential and live their happiest lives. With over 15 years of experience in the health and wellness industry, Camargo is deeply passionate about helping individuals identify and eliminate beliefs that hold them back from reaching their goals. Through personalized coaching programs, she empowers her clients to confront their fears, embrace their strengths, and step into their power with courage.
Inspired by the teachings of spiritual luminaries like Sadhguru and Dr. Joe Dispenza, Camargo realized the transformative power of prioritizing her own well-being and embracing her true essence, even in the face of challenges and setbacks. Through meditation, self-reflection, and immersion in transformative programs, Camargo experienced a profound shift in her mindset and perspective.
“Through meditation and these other practices, I realized I deserve better. I love you, but I love myself more,” she says, serving as a powerful reminder of the importance of choosing oneself no matter what.
This mantra of hers reflects her commitment to drawing upon her own journey to guide others on their path toward self-discovery. With a blend of tough love and unwavering support, she challenges her clients to confront their limiting beliefs and step into their power with courage.
Drawing inspiration from a scene in the movie “The Notebook,” Maria implores her clients to answer the fundamental question: “What do you want?” She challenges them to look beyond the confines of their current circumstances and envision a future filled with possibility.
“Well, see?” she begins, her tone both playful and direct. “What do you want?” she asks, cutting through the noise with precision. If her clients respond with surface-level desires, Camargo doesn’t hesitate to push further.
As she guides them through this process of self-exploration, Camargo doesn’t shy away from calling out any excuses, self-doubt, or the limiting beliefs that hold them back. With a mixture of humor and candor, she dismantles these narratives, creating space for her clients to connect with their deepest desires and aspirations.
“I always say, the good news is that you can have that thing that you want. It’s possible because you thought about it and that’s a miracle,” she says. From there Camargo continues to work with her clients one-on-one and give them the tools they need depending on where they are in their journey.
“Some people want me to tell them what they want to hear, but I will never do that,” she affirms. “I don’t sugarcoat anything. I’m more into a loving, sarcastic tone.” Through this process of radical honesty, Camargo empowers her clients to break free from the limitations of their minds and embrace their true potential.
Through SummaWork, Camargo offers personalized coaching programs aimed at empowering individuals to overcome obstacles, cultivate self-love, and create lasting positive change.
