“A girl should be two things: who and what she wants.”
– Coco Chanel

On today’s show we’re talking all about empowerment. The Oxford Dictionary defines empowerment, which is a noun, as “authority or power given to someone to do something” and “the process of becoming stronger and more confident, especially in controlling one’s life and claiming one’s rights.” Midlife is the time to fully empower yourself so you can step into your purpose and became everything you want to be. It’s time to stop feeling invisible, unheard, or dismissed and let your people pleaser go. It’s time to start to step into your greatness by nurturing your gifts and sharing them with the world. You’ll gain valuable tips and insights to help you feel and be empowered.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Embrace accept yourself exactly as you are
  • Age with grace and ease
  • Get back in touch with what you REALY want
  • Heal from betrayal
  • Be your own champion
  • Stop surrendering your own power
  • Redefine what it means to grow older
  • Use specific practices to empower yourself

Buckle up it’s going to be a power packed show that will empower you to Rock Your Midlife!
