This episode with Angela is quite energizing and interesting - it got me from imagining her pushing a cart and selling eggs to cars to lakes! I love the way Angela presented her ideas through vision and imagination, it had deeper impact on me as what she aimed it to be.
Angela shared her own journey on how she discovered her gift of leadership. She also talked about the importance of taking care of yourself as a leader. How it can affect your impact on people and why is it unselfish to do that. And that being on top doesn't always makes you happy, sometimes you have to take a leap and do what you love :)
The Universe will always show you what you need to experience in order for you to go where you should truly go and you're true purpose lies.
