Intro

When was the last time you just paused and took some time to look into your inner world?

I just recently had my golden birthday, and as a way of celebrating it, I decided to reflect on some of the events that happened in my life, and take some time to be grateful for them.

In the process, I was able to come up with some self-reflection questions that you and I can go back to whenever we need a little bit of encouragement and guidance in our everyday lives.

I hope that these lessons and questions that I’ll be sharing with you in this episode cay help you in your journey to living a life that you’ll truly be proud of.
