    This week Julie, and Chrissa are joined by returning guest Elizabeth Aguilera. After 30 years in corporate IT, Elizabeth’s job was offshored to India while she was sitting on a beach on vacation. She lost everything that she was desperately holding onto and THAT singular event was the gift that liberated her to find her true calling.  After 6 years helping seniors and overwhelmed Moms in a very hands-on way, Elizabeth wanted to serve in a different way.  She became a certified Life Coach and now helps women where she used to be - women who find themselves again after the nightmare of narcissistic abuse.
