For the past few weeks, we’ve been taking a look at moving through change or making a new start, and what can get in the way of that. Now, our focus is on choice. For me, every moment we have choice… even when it

Many of us are experiencing challenges right now. It’s as if we are being propelled forward to do things differently. And yet, we may find that we’re hesitating. How can we find the courage to go after our heart’s desire? I see us as being
