À propos de cet audio

 One thing each of us can not avoid is a lifetime full of heartache. While the world we live in has taught us to prepare for unforeseen events, they've done little in teaching us how to cope. They also don't tell you this…….Adversity is where the true YOU emerges if you let it. Whether it is the beginning of the end or you choose to find the silver lining, it's ALL up to you. This podcast is about owning our ability to be resilient as it is our super power. The way we choose to persevere is our opportunity to not be reduced by our circumstance. That's been my entire life and probably most of yours! Welcome To The Resilient Heart Podcast. This podcast is for powerful women just like you that don't deserve to deal with this alone! Each week we're going to uncover how each of us have the unique ability to maintain our core integrity and strength in the face of dramatic circumstance. I am her, and so are you!2020 Développement personnel Hygiène et mode de vie sain Psychologie Psychologie et santé mentale Réussite
