Once I decided I was going to go full-time into expanding Powerful Ladies, I knew I needed a support system to keep me accountable and on track. The universe knew it too and at a Friends-Giving, two friends of mine Madelyn & Jessica asked if I wanted to join them in a book club that was going to read a Course in Miracles.  It was exactly what I needed. Our other friend Jamie joined, too. These three women, who I had known for five years and we had mostly spent time together in large groups suddenly became some of my most important supporters. On this episode they talk about the importance of being part of a group that’s equally committed to being up to big things, where they go for inspiration and how with all our different stories and backgrounds we’re all looking for our version of an amazing life.
