Hey lady! In this throwback episode we're revisiting our conversation with attorney, career advisor, and storyteller, Ashley Menzies Babatunde. Terri and Dr. Dom talk to Ashley about the power of the pause, when certain seasons slow you down. We discuss the gems the valley seasons reveal, and the pivots that come out of it to find and strengthen your most authentic self. Ashley shares her inspirational story of advocating for herself after a major life event showed her the beauty in her present, albeit difficult, circumstance so that she could create a life rich with meaning. Her decision to embrace where her life took her next with curiosity and wonder opened possibilities that were better than she could have imagined. If you've been feeling stuck, or your path has not been what you quite planned, this episode is for you. Join Dr. Dom and Terri for a motivating conversation about finding the blessings and beauty in your life stage.
