Episode Synopsis
29. The Twist of Fate That Brought the Be Your Best Self Challenge to LifeWham! Bam! This is the episode I didn't plan. 👻 😷 After dodging COVID-19 for nearly five years, it finally got me.

Instead of overworking, I surrendered. Instead of pushing through, I embraced the break. And in doing so, I learned a huge lesson about slowing down, self-care, and why we HAVE to believe in our own transformation before it can happen.This was an episode I didn’t plan, but I had to share these takeaways with you. If you’ve ever struggled with resting without guilt, believing in big changes, or trusting the process, this episode is for you.Before you listen:👉 Grab your Be Your Best Self in 2025 Workbook: workmuse.com/bestselfThis has been an incredible journey together, and I couldn’t be more grateful for you.
