Sarah shares how heartbreak can quietly recalibrate your life around disappointment instead of possibility—and how to shift out of it. You’ll learn the difference between a “fixer-upper life” and a premium life identity, and why self-awareness alone isn’t enough to create change. Plus, an invitation to step back into your power through a bold, playful Truth or Dare challenge designed to get you out of your head and back into your life.
