SO. Excited. To share this first episode with you! Rui Qi is a dear friend of mine, and someone who I would personally call a "heart coach" - she has so much wisdom and understanding about matters of the heart and I'm always blown away by my personal conversations with her.
In this episode, we talk about how we understand and care for our soul (it's not just bubble baths, massages and positive affirmations!), along with our reflections (or should I say deconstructions?) on self worth and success.
Look out for the next episode where we go deeper into conversations of self-worth & identity - which is the second half of this conversation with Rui Qi.
