As we discover and rediscover our purpose it is so critical that we understand that we simply will not have all of the answers regarding our lives.

Kyra Rénel shares the awakening she had as she followed her dreams and what she considered her "life plan". What she did not realize was that things change, the plan changes and you gain so much knowledge and insight along the way. Sounds basic, but in your early 20's you haven't seen enough life to understand how this thing changes and becomes!

Point 1:

Be open to Change

Point 2:

Expect the Casualties 

Point 3:

Purpose Walk with people that drive and support your 'Purpose'.

Today's hot topic is something that IMPACTS everyone! It could actually take you down! We are talking about the " Truth About Not Trusting Yourself". A lack of trust in ourselves can literally impede our progress. There are three major ways that our lack of trust effects us: 1) We LIMIT our capacity when we lack trust within. 2) We pull back our willingness to be vulnerable, therefore, missing out on the intimacy of life. 3) Relationships become an unequal space of emotional exchange. All because of the trust you have in yourself.
