Doing hard things is the key to success
Welcome to episode three of Life Unfiltered.
This episode explores Jess' and Trent's versions of rock bottom and how it was their pivot point to success. What was their life like growing up, what did they find hard, what did they avoid, where did it all go wrong, and how did they use what they know to get through a hard time.
Hard times don't have to be big events, they don't have to be rock bottom, and they don't have to involve grief or loss. A hard time can be doing the dishes when you just want to relax on the couch, it could be saying "no" when someone else wants you to say "yes", it can be setting a boundary, it can be putting yourself first.
