74. Giving Myself Permission to Live Life Lavishly!
At 17, I wrote "Paris" in my high school memory book. At 61, I finally went.
In this episode, I share what it took to give myself permission: 24 hours alone in Paris, a retreat in Provence, a quiet so complete it startled me, and the people who taught me what it really means to live life lavishly.
If you have ever thought something wasn't for "someone like you", this episode is your permission slip.

73. My Solo Trip To France - Part 3
I wind down my solo trip to France in this last episode of 3-part series. I take you on a balade in vintage cars, I take you to the Mediterranean Sea and then you get to be a part of our last night soiree!
I hope my joy and love for the south of France has with through the microphone to you. I started about 1.5 years ago signing up for a retreat in France. I had never been overseas alone! My lesson in all this is to TAKE THE TRIP! Or as I always say LIVE LIFE LAVISHLY!!! We can live lavishly in various ways in our life! Go give it a try!
P.S. This episode ends differently than most. It just represents how I felt as I rode away from the retreat...
