Erin covers three areas:
Loving: Why @chrislovesjulia is something we love- and why setting boundaries is so important.
Leading: Growing into the role of being a leader in my family that allows my kids space to have their own story, without needing to make it my story.
Learning: Change is difficult, but both/and is always the way to make peace with a challenging change.
I am going to sprinkle in these episodes more often, and would love to know what you think!

The Untold Story: Evolving Career, Health Goals, and Life without Kids with Julie D'Amico-Beres Apr 09, 2021

Show notes

Julie gives an honest account of how she evolved from a people pleaser to a confident business woman, and describes her choice to live a beautiful life as a dog mom, versus a people mom. This point of view is one that is frequently untold- and so incredibly valuable. Julie's account of evolving adult friendships, the importance of a supportive partnership, and never giving in to the expectations of society is often missing from the narrative- and I'm so honored she was willing to talk about it with me.
Shop Locally and Take classes at 554 and Company located within Burlap & Lace Marketplace 272 W. Main Street Waukesha, WI 53186 .
