Summary

Hey lady! When you look at your life does it reflect where you thought you’d be twenty years ago, or is it completely different than how you imagined? If it’s radically different than what you imagined don’t fret. In fact, rejoice because that can be a sign that you’ve been following your unique path. This week, Terri and Dr. Dom sit down and reflect on their lives and process the ups and downs of their respective paths. In some areas, they still have goals they are aspiring to reach and in other aspects, the lives they’re currently leading are far better than what they imagined at 17. Does that resonate with you? Let this episode be an inspiration to keep moving forward in the direction of your dreams. And, also let it be a moment to stop and take stock of the beautiful life you’ve built. If there are things you want to change you have time to make it happen, and if there are things you want to amplify, there is time to make those happen too. So, take a deep breath and tap in!

Quote of the Day:
"Thought what I wanted was something I needed. When Mama said no then I just should have heeded."
