We ALL experience challenges. We can learn so much from them, even if it’s simply the perspective to fully receive the blessings in our lives and see them more clearly. In this episode, we’re joined by Joanna Vargas as she shares some challenges she’s faced from the end of a long term relationship, to stepping into rooms that challenged her through the fear of judgment from herself and others. We talk about the fact that all emotions are meant to be felt, and they need to be acknowledged. There is power in being able to sit in the discomfort of challenges and see the beauty in the mess. It’s not about toxic positivity, we’re diving into what it means to be a human.
