We’re living in an amazing time, there’s so much information traveling through our individual and collective spheres. Ten years ago the phrase ‘setting boundaries’ was rarely heard. I recall using it with a colleague and was told I was too firm by being clear around...
It’s taken a long time for me to recognize that the challenging things that have happened (and continue to happen) in my life are designed for my benefit. For most of my life I could not see them as such, and only in this past decade have I been able to remember this...
