#156 My lovely guest this week is Megan Barker. Megan is a
Midwife and Child and Family Health Nurse with over 23 years of
experience. But in the past few months she has changed her path in
life. After a horrible health-scare, she decided that something
needed to be changed. She resigned from her job, got a tattoo, and
then decided to attend a Liveinflow retreat.
Many of us experience the fear that comes from our responsibilities
in life, and sometimes it’s hard to choose ourselves and to choose
joy. It can be difficult to take time from our busy lives to go on
a journey back to our true selves. So, I hope that this episode,
and Megan’s story, can empower you to take a moment and choose
yourself over the troubles and responsibilities of life. Take a
deep breath, and tune in.
