23: The Importance of Personal Development

If I could back in time and tell myself one thing it would be…"Take the time you need to work on yourself, and everything else will fall into place." I can tell you without a shadow of doubt that the big strides and waves I have made in running my business and becoming a working artist have come from working on myself, being curious about my inner critic, and changing the dialogue that my limiting beliefs have created for me. Today I pull back the curtain on my own personal development and what the impact has been on my life. I also share with you my heart beat for The Tillage Village membership and my "why" for creating it in the first place. TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO SIGN UP AS A FOUNDING MEMBER FOR THE TILLAGE VILLAGE.
