Love... these...girls!!
I have been talking about this podcast so much! That I thought I already wrote a review!!! Listening to these three has been so refreshing, it like chatting with your girlfriends, but they always leave you with some knowledge. You have changed my life! Inspired me to just go do what I love! Just be and be the best I can at it. Adelante can’t wait to hear more, and can’t get enough! 💕
“Making changes in your life”
Couldn’t wait to listen to this and I was pleasantly surprised. I can appreciate and can relate to the message of the episode - if one more person asks me if “will I float away when I meditate?!” thanks to Joanna for keeping It real and sharing what’s worked for her!
These Ladies Rule!
These ladies are smart, beautiful and listening to them makes me feel like I'm chilling with my girlfriends.
