In this episode, I chat with Laurie Kennedy, starting with her personal origin story and evolving into her experiences with caregiving and coaching. We explore themes of empowerment during life's transitions, compassionate leadership, and navigating failures as valuable life lessons. The conversation delves into accountability, embracing life's spectrum, and introduces the 'Rule of Thirds'. We also discuss the contrast between social media portrayals versus real-life struggles, the importance of daily habits for growth, patience, community, and building supportive networks. The episode concludes with candid talks on vulnerability, money, and the philosophy of living life to its fullest.
