Becky's wealth of knowledge on Stoicism and poetic way of describing this concept, will leave you feeling more hopeful and ready to take action when it comes to your life.

This week was not the best week and not every week will be, but through tragedy Shannon is trying to find the lesson to be learned. There are moments in life that shake us to our core and we need to remember what is important.
