    Living Your Purpose with Emily Kady

    Living Your Purpose with Emily Kady

    This week our guest is Emily Kady
    Emily Kady is a Spiritual Medium and Intuitive Channeler who understands the pressures of overachievement all too well. Despite her many accomplishments, including owning two 7-figure businesses by the age of 37, she found herself suffocating under the weight of others' expectations, as she was just striving to fit in. This led to a devastating burnout, leaving her drained and disillusioned, searching for purpose and fulfillment in life.
     
    In 2015, a near-death experience shook her to the core, awakening her to the preciousness of life, and igniting a fierce desire to uncover her life purpose and live it authentically, free from the confines of others' expectations.
    Exchange Quotes:
    “Surrendering to who you really are and why you are here may very well change the world.” – Maria Flynn
    “Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be and embracing who we are.” – Brené Brown

    Doing Hard Things with Julie Letizia

    This week our guest is Julie Letizia
    After battling what western medicine called ‘an incurable disease’, Julie started looking for healthier alternatives to the way she and her fellow university students were fueling their bodies to handle the heavy workloads and demands of post-secondary education. This led to the idea and creation of Benny, a good-for-you energy drink company based in Vancouver, BC Canada. Formerly a student athlete, she’s now on a mission to offer nourishing options to help fuel your current and future self.
