Diane shares her very personal story with overcoming fear, dealing with personal health challenges and how she is determined to pay it forward to others.

In this episode we talk about:

1.  Life is a series of making decisions, owning our choices, overcoming our fears and making more decisions. Incredible change happens when we learn to face and overcome our fears.

2.  Nothing happens to us, it happens for us, even when we can’t see or make sense of the reasons at the time.

3.  We hear it all the time, learning how to believe that we are truly enough as we are.  It is one of the most powerful life lessons!

4.  We cannot manifest anything that we cannot graciously receive.  THIS message was such a powerful realization! Being in the space of receiving makes us vulnerable and that can be a difficult place to stay, yet that truly is the beautiful space where growth happens.

5.  When fear overtakes us, follow the process by Mel Robbins, 5-4-3-2-1 and push forward into action. It is the pause and overthinking where we live in and create more fear to stay stuck.

6.  When we surrender we are allowing the process to present itself. It isn’t for us to figure out.  What we continue to fight or resist only comes back or stays in our life.  We must move through the discomfort!

7.  When we learn our lessons it is our responsibility to pay it forward to others.  We can all make a difference!
