Picking Yourself Up: A Story of Resilience with Rachel Wright

I met Rachel about a year ago when I heard part of her journey and part of her story. We stayed connected on Instagram and then I heard about some new parts of her journey and her story. So I said, "Rachel, I need you to come on the podcast if you are willing and able, and you want to come and share your story!"

Rachel Wright is a woman of so much motivation and inspiration as she has overcome challenge after challenge. In the last five years, she has been on a journey of really picking herself up time after time. We all have struggles in life but when you go through so much over the course of five years, you learn a lot about yourself and what you want in life. Her story is truly inspiring and it will help you appreciate the little things.
