For Adults: How to Rebuild Your Life, One Step at a Time
Description:
Our personal disasters have a way of shining a light on the aspects of our lives that aren’t working. We can choose to use these seasons as an opportunity to become better versions of ourselves, or we can let them beat us down and leave us bitter. Are you brave enough to open a door, not knowing what’s on the other side? Are you resilient enough to be okay, no matter what happens? I believe you are. I know because I survived single parenthood at 29 and cancer at 34, and then changed my entire life.
Key takeaways:
Discovering your values to create stability; Learning boundaries for more ease; Focusing on service for more joy.
Who is this for?
Adults looking to be inspired to be brave, gritty, and resilient.
