Welcome back, Purpose Chasers! Today’s episode is all about shedding season and what happens when we release the emotional weight that’s been holding us back. And boy, do I have a treat for you! I am joined by the amazing Wanda Thompson, a two-time graduate of the Redefining Wealth Pillar Mastery program and an absolute powerhouse of resilience and faith.
Now, let me tell you, Wanda’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. From her spoken word artistry to her unwavering commitment to personal growth, she’s got a story that’s bound to tug at your heartstrings and lift your spirits. Plus, with her EP “Something to Think About”, she’s brought her unique blend of wisdom and creativity to share with others on this same journey.
In this episode, Wanda gets real about her own struggles with shedding weight, emotional, mental, and physical, and living her true purpose. We’re talking about setting boundaries, letting go of self-worth tied to external validation, and the incredible journey of self-discovery that comes with it all. And trust me, her insights are like a breath of fresh air in a world that can sometimes feel a little too heavy.
Wanda’s story is a reminder that no matter what we’re going through, there’s always a way forward.
