You know more than you think you know! No knowledge or experience is ever wasted. Too often we hesitate to step out of our comfort zone to create our next chapter because we don’t know how, we are afraid or we are unsure of how to connect the themes and patterns of our lives. What would any of us do if we didn’t allow fear to stop us?
