EPISODE #18 ON THE PODCAST: THE POWER OF PATIENCE & SURRENDER

Today’s episode was inspired by lessons learned while attempting to bake my 5 year old daughter's graduation cake.

EPISODE #12 ON THE PODCAST: HOW TO FEEL WORTHY NO MATTER WHAT

Self-worth comes from one thing-thinking you are worthy – Wayne Dyer

Today I explore the topic of self-worth and how the act of feeling unworthiness tends to prevent us from experiencing the joy in failure.
