Unleash Your Inner Badass 07/04/2023

Unleash Your Inner Badass In this special episode, I'm sharing with you a powerful Masterclass I taught, "Unleash Your Inner Badass!". Wherever you are in your life, this will give you the kickstart to expand to your next level. Whether your life is "good" right now but you want GREAT, or your life is "ok" but you feel it could be better - you just aren't sure where to start, or maybe...just maybe... life feels like it's actually in the crapper right now and you just want ANYTHING better than "this"... I feel you. I get you. I promise you I've been there. And I found my way out of those cycles and into a life that is genuinely full of joy and peace (and a balanced nervous system, but that's a whole other master class). That's why I'm so passionate about the work I do. I walked the road you're on, and I learned the lessons so I could help you have a shorter trip! Enjoy this Masterclass, and Sparkle On! /episode/index/show/couragetorise/id/27345450
