In this week’s edition of Tranquility du Jour, I share my nine-month journey back to the ballet stage after a hip replacement. You'll learn the challenges, joys, time commitments, and resources involved in pursing this passion. I invite listeners to reconnect with their own passions, offer a four-step plan to purse a dream, and provide journaling prompts for reflection.

Download this worksheet to take notes and reflect on journal prompts below.

Thank you for listening and growing up with me over the past 18 years of this podcast!
