Barbara Niven shares so many great messages about kindness and being your best self in order to better others. I know my biggest takeaway was to re-calibrate this year in order to keep on track with my purpose and to continue posting pieces that will continue adding value to your lives! Who else is ready to re-calibrate in 2019?

As women, we can be so hard on ourselves, and in this episode we talk a lot about focusing on positives instead of negatives, which I think is so so important for everyone to do.
