So many of us are desiring to make shifts in our lives this year, which can make the beginning of the year intimidating, as well as exhausting. You're fully involved in the dance between where you have been and where you want to be. Your desires are big + inspiring, but it can feel like a chasm is dividing you from now to there. In this special episode of the

we dive deep into the importance of living this year more in your essence. Listen as we harness the power of the Cinderella story, including it's relevant archetypes, and other powerful metaphors that speak to and inspire the soul.

What is essence? It's your truest form of you. It's the you underneath all the "supposed to" and "should" and "hope so." It's your divine spark. It's what makes you come alive. Simply, it's your uniquely brilliant + beautiful self. Living from your essence will transform this year from just an average year, to a year that sings, opens doors, and lights up your life.

However, living from essence is one of the most difficult undertakings of our lives (if not the most difficult). All too often we are like Cinderella, letting other people come into our "house" to tell us who we are and what we should be doing, waiting for their permission to attend the ball. But this is your year, Cinderella. It's time to bravely live in your full beauty and brilliance, holding nothing back.

It may not be easy, but you were meant for this. Listen to this episode to receive some gasoline for your divine spark to grow into a bonfire. It's time, Cinderella.
