Second Child Challenges

Have you ever wondered what it means to thrive? To have a life so fulfilling that you wake up every morning bursting with energy? 

Many of us go through life on autopilot: We don't question what we’re doing or why we’re doing it. We get used to our jobs and our day-to-day routines, sinking into a comfort that can quickly morph into depression if we don’t question ourselves, our careers, and our lives. 

Today’s guest, CJ Finley, the founder of Thrive On Life & the Thrive On Life Podcast was the same way 6 years ago. 

He chased money until depression hit him like a ton of bricks. But when he hit the proverbial “rock bottom,” instead of blaming others, he started asking himself simple questions. 

These questions allowed CJ to create a life and a business that gives him energy instead of draining it. 

And in today’s show, he’s sharing these secrets to building a thriving and fulfilling life with you.
