I'm in the process of healing my mind, body, and soul. My goal is to transform into a Jon who has more inner peace. I realize my anxiety has compromised my career performance at times.

This new healthier Jon will rise in 2024.

She's a business coach who consults in person and offers online courses such as accounting at www.bizcoachclaire.com. We shared our latest happenings in our lives. "I feel like I reached my limits," I explained. Throughout 2020, I've been feeling so overwhelmed and worn down with my business projects and personal challenges. To top it off, like many of you, the Coronavirus has made things worse. How can I feel like this when I apply so many psychology, philosophy, and mindset...
