Description

Life doesn’t get easier. We get stronger.
 
When I was younger, I was under the illusion that life was supposed to be easy.  That led me to believe that I was doing something wrong. 

I was missing the inherent truth that life has challenges, life has adversity and life presents obstacles but those aren’t sent to us to defeat us or punish us. 

They are sent to us to refine us: our strength, our wisdom and the beauty of our character.
 
Once I understood this, life FELT easier and I became better at surfing the tides of life. (Better, not perfect. I still wipe out.)
 
Life will occasionally knock you down.  This podcast will help you get back up - stronger and better than before!
