Lady, have you ever felt like whenever you try to take two steps forward you get sent three steps back? At times it can feel really hopeless. Did you reach out for help? Was there someone or something that gave you hope? In today’s episode, Terri shares with us when she contemplated suicide and the obstacles she’s faced this year. On this journey in life, it’s okay to pull over on the side to pause, call for help, and keep your eye on your vision. Today the ladies help us build up our resilience muscle.
