“When we do creative things, we are more in our bodies, we are more in our hearts... and when we're more in our bodies & hearts, synchronicities happen, miracles happen, you set intention and it manifests... it's when all the magic happens.”
– Catherine Scherwenka
What if what you thought was the picture of "success" was actually the source of your anxiety, depression, and frustration? What if you achieved everything that you thought would make you happy, yet you still felt restless and unfulfilled? That's what happened with Catherine Scherwenka, and through a series of tragedy and miracles, she found her way back to herself. She shares her remarkable story and how to live a more authentic life from a space of freedom, courage and Grace... dropping the stress, anxiety and societal pressures in order to step more powerfully into our innate mastery as the change makers we are meant to be before we were told who we should be.
