This is Happiness solved with America's Happiness Coach, Sandy Skarlata.

Hello everyone and thank you for joining me today.

I'm so happy you're here.

I'm Sandy Skarlata.

I was born in Virginia Beach and raised in the Baltimore andapolis area and had very humble and tragic beginnings and as a result my life was a hot mess.

Thankfully, 33 years ago I got my act together and since that time I have dedicated my life to serving others and raising awareness that no matter what you've been through, you can choose happiness and live the life of your dreams.

Happiness solved is dedicated to giving you content that is empowering, motivational, inspirational and of course a dose of happiness.

It's my way to give back to the world and share other people's stories.

This thing called life can be challenging and my guests share their amazing stories, wisdom and life lessons that demonstrate anyone can choose happiness.

You see, happiness is a choice and the choice is yours.

Today's episode is amazing and I am so grateful for you.

Thank you for listening and don't forget to leave a review and follow me on social media at Coach Sandy Skarlata.

Enjoy the show.

Yes, yes, for sure. So you have done a lot of really amazing things. I'm not going to read your full bio because it'll be in the show notes, but just to give the audience just a little touch on what you've done.

I mean, you've you've had a 25 year award winning career as a communications leader and corporate executive. That's really phenomenal.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yeah, and so you're about to make a really big life shift.

I am.

Yeah, so can you just tell the audience like your back story how you got to this point and what gave you the courage and the desire to walk away from such an amazing career.
