In this episode, Tabitha shares how everything in her life seemed to be going great. Her family was great, she had a happy marriage, happy kids, and just went on an annual family vacation to bring in the new year. It was going to be a fantastic 2017, until the storm hit. Both her son and daughter faced major health issues and she went through some extremely scary times as a parent. Slowly, her life was unraveling piece by piece. After her husband received a job transfer where he would be able to be more present in the home - no more week on week off - they made the decision to move. Tabitha moved away from all of her friends and family, her daughter and son were off to school full time and she was feeling a little bit lost. Tabitha talks about how the storm led her to where she is today - helping others as a life coach.
