Today on Feminine Roadmap Gina brings you a Thanksgiving message from her heart to yours. As we all know 2020 has been a year for the history books with the world coming to a complete halt from the coronavirus, plans and trips cancelled, families unable to see each other, jobs lost, fear, uncertainty, struggle and division, high levels of stress and most people are more than over it. Wherever you find yourself in this moment, we encourage you to pause and listen to this Thanksgiving message from Gina’s heart to yours. Let’s not skip past Thanksgiving, instead let’s slow down and set our sights on gratitude, joy, connection. Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate being with loved ones, sharing a good meal, laughter and being fully present. Gina shares several strategies to help us to embrace Thanksgiving and the holiday season from a place of intention and joy. So often we find ourselves overwhelmed, worried about all of the little details and we lose sight of what is important. After all that we’ve been through in 2020, don’t you think it’s time to bring some joy into our lives? It’s time to celebrate the good that we experience and see around us, create more of the good we want to see in the world. This Thanksgiving message is from the heart for your benefit. Grab a cuppa something wonderful and a good friend to receive your Thanksgiving message from Gina’s heart to yours. http://www.feminineroadmap.com/episode199/
