332 - What to Do When Things Don’t Go According to Plan

After an accidental cruise I took with my two little ones last week, I am feeling called to talk about what to do when things don’t go according to plan. Needless to say, I never planned to take a seven day cruise with a 3 year old and a 9 month old by myself, but it happened and I definitely learned a lot. This episode is a straight from the heart solo episode about this experience: the struggles and challenges, but the amazing memories as well. When things don’t go according to the plans we make, we can resist them or we can look for blessings and opportunities to expand. Which perspective will you have? It's time to experience how good life can get. The $50K Club Mastermind is accepting applications for the female entrepreneurs who are ready to achieve the next level.
