Happy Monday, Friends!  I am so honored to be sharing our next guest with you, but before I do - a few announcement... Wild & Holy Year - a year long spiritual container for therapists, coaches, helpers, and healers to have their own breakthroughs so they can show up braver and help others have their own - is NOW open for enrollment with TWO unique ways to join: 1.  The Lotus Level ($150/month) - 8 Spots Left 2. The Crown Level ($350/month) - 5 Spots Left What's the difference between the two tiers?  You can find out more at Wild & Holy Year and I'm so excited about the level of value I'm offering at each.  Enrollment will close December 31st or until we sell out, whichever happens first, and I'd love for you to be a part of what we're co-creating together inside the Wild & Holy Community. Now, onto our beautiful guest!  Last week, I promised you a woman who was on a soul mission and this week, she's sharing how she found her work, her spiritual journey of finding herself, and how we can all make a difference by being more intentional with where our money is going this Holiday Season. Today, I'm speaking to the lovely Reshma Thakkar, the founder of Made with a Purpose, a social enterprise committed to empowering girls and women in India with education, skills training, and economic stability. (P.S. She's giving you a Wild & Holy discount at Made With A Purpose!  Use coupon code WILDANDHOLY at checkout!) Reshma’s journey began in Southwest Michigan, half a world away from the rich culture and deep-seated traditions of India. Despite the distance, her heritage shaped her personality and colored her life, engraining a deep appreciation for the world and people around her. Throughout her education and career, including a degree in Health Administration and a high-powered position as an IT consultant, Reshma continued to pursue her love of exploration. To-date, she has visited over 35 foreign countries, and embarks on new adventures as often as possible. It was along this journey that Reshma was summoned with an inexplicable, deep desire to return to her homeland, India. She made the bold decision to take a three-month sabbatical from her successful career to journey overseas alone. What followed would eventually lead to her being featured on the groundbreaking television event, Belief, produced by Oprah Winfrey. Reshma has since been featured on OWN, MSNBC, Yahoo, The Huffington Post, Variety, and other major publications. She has utilized this opportunity to launch the Belief Explorer Quest with featured guests such as Mastin Kipp, Don Miguel Ruiz, Arielle Ford, Marianne Williamson, Danielle LaPorte, and more. Reshma cites the Belief Explorer Quest as one of her greatest accomplishments, helping to replicate the journey of wonder and self discovery in the lives of thousands of people across the world. I'm so excited to share her wisdom with you and I'd love for us to support her work by shopping with Made With A Purpose this Holiday Season!   I'll see you next week for another episode on Wild & Holy Radio!

Reshma Thakkar's spiritual journey is featured in Oprah Winfrey's new docu-series on Belief as she takes a trip of a lifetime in search of answers, purpose, and to discover herself in India traveling from Chicago to the banks of the Ganges River in India for the Kumbh Mela, joining millions at the world's largest spiritual gathering. It just so happens that at the time, Oprah's TV Network, OWN was looking to film people on this very journey. Reshma was raised in Southwest Michigan, but keeps the rich spirit of her Indian homeland close to her heart. Its people, pop culture, cuisine, dedication to family and deep-seated traditions have helped to shape her personality and color the way she lives, despite being half a world away. From an early age, she determined that service to others would become an important part of who she was and how she chose to live her life.  Having been an Information Techology consultant in the healthcare field, Reshma has visited over 40 foreign countries, and pursues new adventures as often as possible. She is the founder of “http://madewithapurpose.com,” which is a part of her mission to help empower women in India and educate young girls.
