Heather Hamel is the creator and talent behind Heather Hamel Design, a design company offering a unique niche in the world of interior design. She is also a travel enthusiast, and her trip to Egypt as a teenager sparked her curiosity for the world.

This is Heather Hamel's story...

I was 15 years old when I took my first big trip outside of the United States. I went to Egypt and it was a total culture shock. I was not used to seeing people with AK-47s on every corner or kids running around in rags without shoes. It was a very eye-opening experience for me. I realized how privileged I was to have the things that I did. but it also sparked something inside of me that desired to experience more and more of this amazing world! Since then, I've been lucky enough to see many more amazing places. And now through my interior design business I can do my part in bringing the world to life, calling on my past experiences to ensure each space is unique in its own beautiful way.

When faced with the choice to stay in a job that's no longer fulfilling or take a risk to chase your passions, the decision is clear: never stop chasing your calling.

"I believe that all of us should have the opportunity to chase our dreams, to go after our calling, to light up our passions each and every day. We just have to be willing to fight for it, to make changes, to take risks and well, because what's the alternative?"

I was inspired by Meredith Hill's story shared inside of Episode 135 where she has never stop chasing her calling in pursuit of her passions. This got me thinking about my own life and how I got to where I am today. I originally started my podcast while owning my own travel agency. I loved being a travel agent and helping people with their vacations, but I realized that it wasn't what I was truly meant to be doing. I decided to make the difficult choice to walk away from being a travel agent and embark on a new chapter in my life. This life is way too short for us not to be living in our highest potential possible each and every day.

From Wall Street to the travel industry, Meredith Hill shares her inspiring journey of making a complete career transition while also being faced with the devastating realization that her marriage was ending.

With a well-paying, successful job on Wall Street the world would say that Meredith Hill should have been happy. But she wasn't. Because as "perfect" as this career may seem, it wasn't pulling on her strengths, it wasn't lighting up her passions, and it was quite honestly leading her down a path in life that simply wasn't for her.

Thankfully Meredith would make the tough decision and ultimately take a chance... A chance on herself, on her career, on her future. And that chance taken has continued to blossum into a life of amazing opportunities as Meredith helps to lead the way in the travel industry!

But more than just a major career transition, it's the storms in life that have equally shaped the story of Meredith Hill. The biggest and most severe storm in life being divorce.

Prepare to be enthralled at Meredith's spirit, amazed at Meredith's mindset, and empowered that you too are capable of all that Meredith has overcome!

Kevin Lowe was a normal teenager until the results of an MRI set him on a path he never could have imagined. First it was the news of a brain tumor. Next, it was the earthshattering realization that the tumor’s removal left Kevin completely blind.

"I don't know why I was never angry with God. I don't know why I didn't do what most people do and turn my back on God and say, how could you allow this to happen? And if this could happen, then you must not be real. Instead I clung to my faith…”

Kevin Lowe is a Life & Business Coach, as well as the host of this very podcast, Grit, Grace, & Inspiration.

But more than that, Kevin is a follower of Jesus and a lover of life! He's the kind of guy who loves to laugh, hates to cry, yet gets suckered into watching "The Notebook" everytime! But what makes Kevin who he is, is his story. And that story along with all of its many life lessons is what you will find inside of today's episode.

With the 19th Anniversary of the day I became blind only 1 week away, I am left to reminisce on how I got to this point in my life.

As a man of Faith I can so clearly look back on my life, my childhood years, those first 17 years of life and so clearly see how God's hands were at work all along.

It is so clearly laid out just how God had been preparing me for what was to come. God knew that I would become blind on October 28, 2003 as it was all part of his plans. But God never does something for nothing. And therefor God spent the first 17 years of my life preparing me, molding me, guiding me to become a man who would take what was to happen and turn it around for good!

I pray that today's episode blesses you.

With love,

Kevin
