My Journey Overcoming Life's Challenges

I’ve been meaning to write this post but have been putting it off for two weeks.  2015 left me emotionally and physically DRAINED!  I had put my business on the back burner, received a promotion at work and lost my grandmother to aggressive lung cancer.

The loss of my grandmother SHOOK my WORLD.  I thought watching the loss of previous grandparents would prepare me for witnessing the loss of my mother’s mother.  What I didn’t realize is that this time it was different.  I was an adult.  There were more memories and as an adult our minds tend to run wild and our emotions wreak havoc.

The focus of this group will be surrounded by the usual motivation, accountability and support you receive from my traditional challenge groups, however, we will be focusing on positive thinking and falling IN LOVE with ourselves.
