Story
What happens when you learn to communicate better with everyone? No doubt you’ve had to endure a painfully awkward conversation, more than once in your life. Maybe it was a stranger, a colleague, or a date. Maybe it was a group discussion. You found yourself breaking a sweat, not knowing what to say. The more time passed, the more tense you became. You thought about all the communication books you’ve read in your life and wished you had them with you…to knock yourself unconscious as a way out of the conversation. The best thing about the whole situation was the moment it ended.

Every one of us sooner or later walks through hell. The hell of being hurt, the hell of hurting another. The hell of cancer, the hell of a reluctant, thunking shovel full of earth upon the casket of someone we deeply loved, the hell of betrayal, the hell of betraying, the hell of divorce, the hell of a kid in trouble...the hell of knowing that this year, like any year, may be our last. We all walk through hell. The point is not to come out empty-handed.... There is real and profound power in the suffering we endure if we transform that suffering into a more authentic, meaningful life.

UNLEASHED!!!
Victoria Labalme, has really removed the straight jacket with her book: RISK FORWARD!!! I am so glad that she shares the gifts which this book has to share in her own voice. Though it is a short listen/read, I found myself pausing, taking notes, and at times just staring off into space because my creative juices had been set free, and they flowed. Even paused the book at one point because a song was set free in me and I wrote that song!!! Thank you Victoria!!! I look forward to meeting you in your awesome community, and I am going to start this over for my second listen/read through!!! Much Love❤️

Be you and it's ok!
I've read many books that tell me what I should do to be this and that.
There's books that will tell me what and why I'm doing what I do and what I should do with that. And then I can be xyz...
This book tells me who I am is ok and the trust that you have in yourself while in the unknown is ok too.
This book reaffirmed that who I am and how I got here isn't because of any book I've read. It's because I trusted my gut and I've forgotten that. Thanks for reminding me!
