There are a lot of people out there these days trying to find their passion. There are a lot of people sharing lots of ideas about how to find your passion, including me. I talk a lot about passion and purpose because I think without those two things, you are just surviving, not thriving.

When we become who we truly are, our entire being will shine forth in our unique and authentic true colors (and we may even look younger, too)!
