    Do you remember, girls got wild? Courtney Kocak joins us today to share her experience being recruited for an exploited on the The Girls Gone wild tour. Courtney is an avid podcast and author and freelancer, and is celebrating the release of her book Girl Gone Wild about her experience being part of Girls Gone Wild and how it has made her a stronger woman, a better feminist and entrepreneur and to take control of her life and build something beautiful from it. The early 2000s late 90s were rife with degradation and humiliation of women and it’s with conversations like these that we are able to change behaviors and build a better future for everyone to thrive in.

    We are talking about empowerment building boundaries, finding safety and strength in discovering who you are in personal growth and development.

    Find Courtney‘s book on Amazon Barnes & Noble and ask your local bookshops! Give Courtney a follow:

  • The Best Love Letter I've Ever Written!

    The Best Love Letter I’ve Ever Written

    That’s right! It’s the best love letter I’ve ever written, and this time, it’s being written to myself. What would you say to yourself from the perspective of your very best day to you on your worst and most difficult day.

    I had this lovely conversation with my fiancé about this and it was interesting to explore the fact that it ca be really difficult to get yourself out of a rut or set yourself back to the state of feeling fabulous and motivated and like you can achieve what you desire.

    Sometimes low mood strikes me REALLY badly which I’ve spoken about a little bit in the past through various episodes especially dealing with PMDD as well as PTSD. Some days are simple and some days are harder than others. But writing this letter, I truly have pinned it up on my wall because it has made a difference reminding myself of that even when the days don’t feel like it’s possible to pull yourself back into joy.

    So if you wrote yourself a love letter to yourself on your worst day, what would you say? I hope it’s filled with kindness, compassion, gentleness, calm and understanding.
