In this episode, I share 8 tips & ideas that you can apply RIGHT now to have your most badass year ever. The year where you can fully step into your most badass self – whatever that may be – and experience life to the fullest.
The first thing I want you to remember is that it’s not about being perfect. It’s not about having everything exactly as you wish it to be, with all your ducks in a row…No, it’s about having fun and remembering that life is what you make it. Life is about the journey and creating your own beauty within it. If you want to experience joy, success, and fulfillment, you absolutely can! You have the power to change your life. I need you to know – and this might come as a shock to some – this is not a dress rehearsal. This is your life. This is your opportunity to make your life exactly what you envision.
