    Meeting Antoine Face-to-Face: Heartfelt Talks on Healing and Finding Yourself with Antoine Bilbord

    HIIIII BESTIES :) In this episode, my buddy and business partner, Antoine, finally meets me in person for my birthday surprise, and wow, did we dive deep. Antoine gets real about his therapy journey, the ups and downs of self-esteem, and how learning to value himself has totally changed his game. We laughed, we cried (literally), and explored how letting out those big emotions has sparked his creativity like never before. I'm so proud of him and all the magic he brings to our work together. It's all about growing, healing, and accepting ourselves in this chat. Trust me, you won't want to miss this heart-to-heart.

    From Tragedy to Triumph: The Inspiring Story of K.D. Hill

    From Tragedy to Triumph: The Inspiring Story of K.D. Hill

    "Storms are meant to show you things you never knew you had inside of you."





    Hiiiii besties! Welcome back! Welcome back this week we are joined by KD Hill.a former football player for Ole Miss who has an incredible story to share. K. D. started for three years in a row and even wore the prestigious number 38 and the Chucky Mullins award. His journey in athletics has been nothing short of remarkable, with achievements in high school, over 30 college offers, and opportunities with professional teams like the XFL's Orlando Guardians, New York Jets, and Buffalo Bills.



    Unfortunately, K. D.'s life took a tragic turn with a car accident that led to the amputation of his leg. But instead of letting it defeat him, he found a new path in motivational speaking and writing. Currently, he's working on a book that dives into his life-changing experience and the incredible power of perseverance and faith.





    In this episode, I was blown away by K. D.'s resilience and positivity. Despite the challenges he’s faced, K. D.'s unwavering faith in God was his guiding light through recovery. We talked about the mental strength it takes to overcome such obstacles and how challenges can transform us for the better. Our conversation really highlighted the theme of using adversity as a catalyst for growth and finding our true purpose in life. It was such an inspiring discussion, and I'm so grateful to K. D. for sharing his story with us. Enjoy :)
