Today I am joined by Brittany Copithorn and we talk confidence, courage, and consistency. Brittany is both the REEL and REAL deal. She is a busy mom of 2 young girls, married to her best friend, and is passionate about all things health and wellness. She has a background in sales and marketing and has been in direct social sales for 6 years. She also talks about how she loves showing up for people and helping other woman achieve their goals. It was a powerhouse episode and true joy to record with her.

In today’s episode I am joined by an old friend from my past, Mr. Kevin Petersen. Kevin is a licensed marriage and family therapist, the author of two books, and in 2020 he established The Chronic Hope Institute with a “mission to increase education on addiction and its impact on the family system.” We discuss his own story with addiction and how he overcame that and found his passion for helping others through his personal journey in recovery.

She is a lover of life, ray of sunshine, devoted wife, a busy mom of two and an entrepreneur with big dreams and an immense amount of courage to actually chase after them. She is a realtor, the owner of a children’s boutique and recently became a market partner through Monat. Kimmie shares some amazing wisdom and I hope others are left just as inspired as I was!

In episode 1, I try to eloquently Connect-the-Dots in my own life by giving a brief biography of myself and sharing some key and pivotal moments that I believe made me the person I am today. I cried, laughed and even questioned, "should I really share that!!" I discuss moments of pain, joy, deep love, battling with anxiety and allowing fear to control me.
