Overcoming Adversity: A Podcast on Navigating Difficult Seasons
Happy Small Business Saturday! This season can be tough. I've had more than a few tough Novembers. Some reflections to help you if you're having a tough season...
In this episode of Destiny Architecture®, join me as I share reflections on this Small Business Saturday about going through a rough season.
I talk about my small business, (which allows me to offer Reiki sessions and coaching), as well as my personal journey of sobriety and transformation through spirituality and personal development.
🚨 Spoiler Alert: This is a vulnerable one!
I open up about the challenges I'm currently facing, including the impending loss of a family member, and how I'm navigating through it all with resilience and a sense of service.
I hope this inspires you as I offer hope and encouragement to those going through tough times this holiday season and remind you that we are never alone on this journey of life.
