Self-reflection is KEY

It's possible to wire your brain to search for gratitude in all situations

Gretta Morrissey, biz owner, mentor, dream chaser, & all-around great human joins me on the pod today to talk about how...
To get over what people think of you

Having faith is a total game changer

Knowing your WHY can help you persevere

Chasing your dream impacts more than just you

You're the only one with your experience & perspective and that's powerful

Our fear response is meant for survival, not the little things that cause it to come up now

Leaving the comfort zone is the best way to grow your character

Community/collaboration is better than competition
