Hey lady, welcome to Fall! This season is perfect for sweaters, soup, and shedding. As the temperature cools and you find yourself drawn inward, you can now use this time to shed some of the survival programming and strategies so that you can return to the true you. This week, Terri and Dr. Dom lovingly discuss how they’ve endured seasons of straight survival without even realizing it. Lady, hindsight is absolutely 20/20. One day you look back at the past couple of years you grit your way through despite not letting it show that you are going through it and say to yourself wow! The amount of life-changing, truly transformative events can blow your mind. But, once you get past the wave of emotions that may come up you now have an amazing opportunity to chart a course – one from a place of wholeness and abundance, not scratching and surviving.

So, how do you make the most of the vastness between the old and new you? Tune in this week for tips on how to cultivate a level of curiosity so that you can decorate your interior life with what feels real and true for you.
