Positive Perspectives

This week, I explain my journey of starting the podcast. I have talked a little about the process, but for today’s episode, we do a deep dive into how I was really feeling. I go back and share some of my journal entries that explain how I was navigating through my ideas & emotions at that time. As much as I wish I could say it was as simple as having the idea & starting, it just was not. I talked about how many days were often filled with fear & self-doubt but what I did to push through the fear.

Ashley shares how growing up, she was always the good daughter who just wanted to please her parents and follow the rules. She talks about how as she got older, she faced many life-changing decisions. Ashley was able to apply the, much easier said than done phrase, and trust her gut through those big decisions. She now has a successful business that wouldn’t be where it’s at today if she hadn’t continued to just trust her gut.

Gia Lily of the UK shares how she was a rambunctious child but also had a deep love for a variety of art expressions. As she grew up, she learned how she could channel all her energy through different outlets like dance, music, & drama. She recalls listening to music that inspired her & helped her cope with some of her own life’s struggles. So today, she writes, produces, & sings her own music in order to express herself as well as in hopes it will help at least one listener.
