Often, I have clients who have created a life that is full of activities and work. A life of “doing” that they feel isn’t purposeful or satisfying. A life that is busy and often tiring.

In my 20s, I worked hard. I got my college degrees and worked and yet I always felt likeContinue reading “My Money Story Part 2”
My Money Story Part 1
Most of our beliefs come from our childhood. After all, we are empty vessels with room in our heads to take in the world around us when we are young.
