Deeply grateful for this courageous sharing of life changes and navigating them

Art has a gift for not only sharing his own often painful life changes and how he navigated them - and still is navigating them, but also for pulling out gems of wisdom from the life changes others have successfully navigated.

It is so evident from these episodes that Art cares deeply about people and is using this platform to help others find courage and direction in navigating their own life changes.
