What an honor to have this beautiful soul with a contagious laugh on this episode!
Our special guest Ariel, is the reminder I think we all need - to persevere and to stay true to ourselves when life hits us hard, when life doesn't let up and during those times you can still look back and learn life lessons, you can still keep growing, you can flourish. She is an open book, sharing snippets of her life and inspiring chapters if you're willing to listen. Ariel talks about having divorced parents, the hardships of being a teen mom, losing her mom while getting her college degree and being a mommy of 5, soon to be 6! Ariel emphasizes that life isn't easy but what is most important is to be kind to not only to others but to yourself and that love is sacrifice and it can be painful. The only way out is through, because when life happens we always need to fight and help others during their fight too.
