How to Create Ways To Find Your AWESOMENESS With Melissa Oatman

“Things fall apart so that they can come back together, and become a better version. We're allowed to be healed and made more beautiful than ever before, but sometimes we have to be broken open to take a step back and realize what went wrong, and what we have to do to find who we truly are.”

In today’s episode, we have invited Melissa Oatman, host of Awaken Your Inner Awesomeness. She will share how her trajectory changed, and show you that behind the darkest parts of your life you can still attract amazing things that will keep you motivated and move forward.
