Ann Richards truly inspires!!!

These podcasts give me life! Every interview shows perfect examples of someone creating their passion into their purpose. And they are all such different stories, which I love! Ann’s energy and personality shines bright through each one and I feel like I’m sitting in on each interview when I listen to them. After listening, I feel empowered, energized, and encouraged to continue turning my passions into my purpose. I would love to hear a solo episode from Ann and learn more about the steps she took to become the bright light that she is! ❤️😍⭐️⭐️
