Ep108 : Onward Movement
"people have this image of what retirement looks like in their head, right. And it's like sitting around playing, maybe playing golf, watching TV, just not, you know, doing much. And I knew that that's not what I wanted to do. I wanted to be a coach, I wanted to be a podcast host I wanted to still give back. And so I decided to call it a graduation "
"And the onward movement is about releasing the fear of judgment. So that you can create the life of your dreams or a life that you love with confidence. And I think for women, sometimes we don't have that confidence, sometimes we get imposter syndrome. So the different steps deal with, you know, just making that decision to go on a transformational journey. "
