The way life is setup, sometimes it can feel like you spend all of your time reacting to what life throws at you - instead of building the life that you want.
It is difficult, but entirely possible to design your life on your terms. It involves vision, persistence and the ability to pivot.
My guest, Yadira Santana-Dowling @myintentionaljoy has handcrafted a life that she loves, despite the challenges. We talk about how she has done it, and provide inspiration and some practical steps for you to do it too.
