This Podcast is all about helping humans thrive in their lives. It is our birthright to thrive. When we own our thrive, we are operating from a position of empowerment, and celebrating life in the present moment without fear. It is human nature to feel uncertain, but why does it have to take us away from our thrive, our creativity, and throw us off balance? If we can recognize that being empowered is us choosing to accept all that is, then we have the ability to step into clarity and live in the present moment. Our "now" is all that we have and where our infinite empowered energy resides. Stay connected with the host, Nkechi Nwafor-Robinson online; https://linktr.ee/nkechinwaforrobinson

This is a very rewarding discussion, rich with punch points, great tips, and whole lot of grace and understanding. Dr. Gillian reminds us that while suffering unimaginable grief, can be all-encompassing, sometimes it isn't the only emotion we feel. There is a range. There is a symphony at play. This is not something we should feel guilty about, but recognize that it is a personal journey for each of us and it can be a beautiful one if we allow it. “We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:3-4‬ ‭NLT‬‬ If this episode resonates with you, then remember...
