11. 13 Ways to Reclaim Happiness
I'm back! Excited to kick off season 2 of the podcast talking about living life feeling lighter; my whole life's mission is to help others lift off as much of the heavy burdens life tends to throw at us and to walk through this journey of life feeling like our best self!
I discuss life updates, like our big family news, and what has been going on in my life the last few months as to why I took an unexpected break.
I then go into discussing the 13 ways I have reclaimed happiness in my life and what I have always returned to when feeling down. These are simple but so important to remember. It has inspired me to return to them and to continue living my life as a growing, ever-evolving person striving to be her highest self which I hope inspires you to do the same.
I hope this sparks some action steps for you to take to reclaim your power and take happiness each day into your own hands.
If you enjoy the podcast please rate and review! I'd love your feedback and support!
