Podcast Episode 287 – The Art of Letting Go: Kickstart Your Best Year Yet

January 02, 2024/ Heather Bunch

In this episode, we talk about how to approach a new year. I address the pressure we feel to achieve things and do more.

The aim is to live free and stop hiding so that you can fulfill your God-given purpose, but you can't do that if you can't focus on what matters.
