RE-RELEASE: Wellness expert, mama and founder of “The MWH Method", Melissa Wood dives into a soulful conversation around what it takes to define your path, one moment at a time.

RE-RELEASE: As women we are taught from a young age to be good girls- be nice, smart, pretty and likable. We aren’t always taught how to be truthful about what feels right for who we REALLY are. The art of expressing this truth is based on boundaries- the ones we have with ourselves, others, and how we’ve been taught to use (or not use them). Basically understanding boundaries can drastically change our relationships and our lives! On this episode Randi gets real with Terri Cole, licensed psychotherapist, boundary and relationship expert and the founder of Real Love Revolution and Boundary Bootcamp, her two female empowerment courses reaching women in over 25 countries. Terri’s strategies combine practical psychology, eastern mindfulness practices plus harnessing the power of intention to create true transformation. For more ways to interact with Terri: Upcoming weekend retreat at Kripalu coming up on September 13-15.
