Gratitude to Latitude- Stories of Resilience and Gratitude
We are all fascinated by the stories that inspire us. In books and in theatres we cheer on the heroes who, through resilience and determination, defy the odds and triumph beyond what's possible.
Those heroes are all around us each day and I have the honor to share their stories with you. Tune in to my podcast, Gratitude to Latitude, Stories of resilience, to understand the true power of the human spirit.
