In this episode I give you 5 things you need to know to create, build and have consistency in achieving your goals.
Welcome to another episode of "Show Up and Thrive." I'm your host, Amber Allan, and today, I'm going to get real and personal with you.
Life has thrown me some curveballs lately—regret, a bout of depression, and a few extra pounds I didn't plan on. As we step into the new year, I've been on a journey to rediscover myself.
Join me on a reflective walk through the breathtaking Jasper National Park as I open up about these challenges. Nature has been my solace, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to connect with you, my incredible audience.
In this episode, I lay it all on the table, sharing my vulnerabilities in the hope that it resonates with you. Life isn't always a highlight reel, and that's okay. It's about embracing the struggles, learning from them, and growing into a stronger version of ourselves.
So, grab your headphones and join me on this candid journey. Let's navigate the ups and downs of life together because, in our vulnerabilities, we find strength.
Thanks for tuning in, and let's thrive together.
