In this episode, Carolyn Ely shares about writing a chapter in a book for the first time. Oftentimes, we think we know the direction something is going to go, but when we tap into the whispers of our deep knowing, something more comes out. The first draft may not be where you end up. Carolyn’s chapter “Moving Forward Together” really digs deep into how adversity comes up, and how we can move through it together with more success than if we do it alone. Todds mastermind group has been a big source of support where we help feed and fuel each other to bring that back to our communities. When we are working together, we move forward together.
