She shares her story through a reverse interview with good friend, Kevin Keiser, on how she discovered a deep connection to spirituality, more authenticity, and more of what she loves! 

Kute joins us to discuss his newest book, The Magic of Surrender. Learn why surrendering brings more into your life, not less. Why surrendering can open doors, not close them.
