Olivia is back with baby Blaise in tow! For this first episode back after her maternity break, Olivia interviews Sterling Jay- a CATHOLIC life coach. Personal development wrapped up IN our Catholic Faith- it sounds too good to be true- but it ISN'T. Sterling's use of the Model to help women get unstuck is incredible, and she even walks Olivia through a problem with it that all mothers can relate to. Also, Sterling turns everything we think we know about goals completely on it's head and it is amazing!
