In today's episode, we dive deep into womanhood with our girl Natasha Solomon.She is on a mission to elevate womanhood for greater impact, and she does this by helping women unlock their leadership potential and become dynamic leaders who inspire elevated and empowered living, both inside and outside their home. As a young woman growing up in South America, she wanted to live an empowered and impactful life. She found myself instead, trying to live up to an unrealistic expectation of what it meant to be a woman of impact— A quest that left her feeling disempowered, defeated and worst of all broken.  Today, she uses her story of redemption as a catalyst to help other women thrive on their womanhood journey and lead a compelling life of impact. A life that fosters stronger, more committed relationships, and nurtures the leaders and changemakers of tomorrow. Today's episode is Spirit led and some toes might get stepped on but I am sharing it in it's full rawness as their is a WORD that must go forthI pray it blesses you!Let's dive in!**************************************************************************************More info on the Redefining Health Academy: Doors close Saturday Feb. 3 at 1pm MSThttps://docs.google.com/document/d/14rBJo9CAtxsD1-ekuy9Ks2rOgUSr2giY/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=105006454389497396337&rtpof=true&sd=trueGrab my Top 4 Fat Burning Workouts Here:https://www.thestrongandfitcoach.com/freefatburningworkoutsDownload your FREE gift: 3 BIGGEST Mistakes Women 40+ Make When Trying to Lose Weight:https://www.thestrongandfitcoach.com/lead-collectionJoin The Strong & Fit Women Of Faith Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/2507417385972075Ready to create a sustainable weight loss plan that allows you to get strong, fit and healthy God’s way- Schedule Your Discovery Call Todayhttps://calendly.com/fitandstrongmom/30min?month=2020-10Follow Carrie on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/carrie.leonardiniIG: https://www.instagram.com/carrieleonardini/Support the Show.
