What happens when success costs you your health and silence keeps you there?
In this honest and restorative episode of Unrestrained B.O.L.D-ness™ | Taylor-Made for Impact, Jo Taylor speaks with Deidre Gestrin, licensed mental-health counselor and founder of Abundant Wellness Essentials. After facing severe burnout in leadership, Deidre left a high-pressure career to rebuild her life, physically, mentally, and spiritually and now helps others do the same.
